Barco Introduces iSurveillance Display Solution with Integrated Streaming Video Decoding at IFSEC 2003

Barco’s iSurveillance solution is the first solution to provide integrated visualization of the total security system, as well as address the industry's migration from analog to digital streaming video.

Kortrijk, Belgium – May 15, 2003 – Barco's iSurveillance Integrated Display Solution will be launched on May 19th to provide the CCTV community with an integrated visualization platform that can serve both legacy analog and digital video networks, as well as serve to facilitate its transition. Barco is exhibiting at IFSEC, the world's leading security event at NEC in Birmingham (UK) from 19 to 22 May, Hall 20, Booth J77.

The iSurveillance Integrated Streaming Video Display Solution may be used in all operational control centers – in both large Collaborative Environments and for Individual Workstations – to integrate the display of information from various different sources and formats. Barco’s iSurveillance is designed to provide a real-time collaborative work experience for monitoring, response dispatching/coordination, access/flow control, recording and overall systems control for 24/7 operations. The solution enhances all operation centers because it provides a large overview display that facilitates collaborative actions across multiple operators. It typically replaces monitor wall stacks to provide a virtual monitor wall that may change its layouts and formats depending on alarms and situation requirements. The solution also allows the users to mix and match display types such as real time video (analog or digital), as well as computer graphics (e.g. RGB monitor outputs) in a scalable manner. This provides maximum flexibility to utilize the display area for present and future surveillance applications.


In addition, the display controller was designed with a high bandwidth backplane chassis architecture, allowing the controller to serve as a universal decoding platform, capable of accepting both analog and digital video inputs cards. This is particularly beneficial when digital streaming video is deployed as the iSurveillance Display Solution integrates the digital decoder unit into the display controller thus saving both physical space and equipment costs.

Its architectural design allows the user to expand the iSurveillance solution’s displays and/or input decoding as necessary. The combination of the flexible display and universal decoding platform provides the user with a truly integrated display solution that is unique in its ability to accept different input formats, cost, performance, and scalability. In addition, the solution allows the user to easily define the position and size of any video image or computer output to be viewed, to overlay different views to provide context and switch between these views and inputs. iSurveillance adds further value by supporting text insertion, alarm based actions, and border and background colour control.
