The Hajj Organization in Tehran, Iran has been organizing the Hajj Mission since 1991, providing services to Hujjaj, who are Muslim pilgrims from Iran, with the aim of promoting Hajj and serving Hujjaj by facilitating and organizing all aspects of Hajj. With its pivotal role and sizable scale in Iran, the organization requires high-security surveillance to ensure the overall safety of the Hujjaj and the daily operation of the Hajj Mission. The manager of the organization decided to install several IP cameras, and VIVOTEK cameras, with excellent quality at a reasonable cost, became the organization's first choice.

Pooya Fara Negar, VIVOTEK's distributor in Iran, provided the professional consultation and design. A total of 178 cameras were installed indoors and outdoors. Outdoor areas are covered by 11 SD8323E, 12 IP7361 and 53 IP8362 cameras, while 73 FD8161 and 27 FD8162 cameras were installed indoors. Two IP8162P cameras were installed in the official area.

The SD8323E, a network speed dome with several superior features — such as the ability to capture clear video even in environments with high-contrast lighting conditions, a weather-proof IP66-rated housing, and 360° continuous pan and 90° tilt — is an ideal camera for monitoring open indoor/outdoor spaces. Equipped with a powerful 36x zoom lens and WDR technology, the camera is also able to capture sharp images at a great distance even under challenging lighting conditions. The SD8362E was thus installed outside of the organization for monitoring the grand square in front of the building.

Bullet cameras IP7361 and IP8362, with 2-megapixel resolution, weather-proof IP67-rated housings, removable IR-cut filters and IR illuminators for superior image quality around the clock, were chosen for a wide range of outdoor applications. The IP7361 was installed in the outdoor corridor, while the IP8362 was chosen to monitor the parking lot, taking advantage of its WDR enhancements, which allow users to identify image details in extremely bright as well as dark environments.

For monitoring the building halls, the FD8161 and FD8162 were used. Featuring a 2-megapixel sensor and ePTZ functionality, these cameras are able to provide extremely wide coverage with the finest details and enable users to focus on close-up shots of different areas. Moreover, the FD8162, which also incorporates WDR capability, is able to capture clear footage even when both bright and dark areas are present in the same field of view.

As for the official area, the IP8162P — a 2-megapixel camera with several advanced features like a P-iris lens, built-in Focus Assist button for precise focus adjustment, WDR Enhanced technology for an unparalleled ability to capture detail in extremely bright and dark environments — is able to monitor a much more comprehensive area than can a standard VGA camera, allowing users to fully enjoy the HD video.

Sacred, Secured
Access to all of these cameras is via a private Intranet. VIVOTEK's stand-alone NVR enables the Hajj Organization to record, monitor and manage video data simultaneously through the Internet. Both live video feeds and recorded video footage are centrally managed.

William Ku, VP of International Business at VIVOTEK, stated: “We are so glad to have the chance to enhance the security of the Hajj Organization. I believe that VIVOTEK cameras with their superior quality are able to meet the client's needs by providing clear footage and accurate event tracking around the place. Also, the Hajj Organization can monitor the status of all cameras and storage in real time and manage videos in a centralized way. We are expecting to provide more security support to the Hajj Organization in the future.”

State of HD-SDI in 2013

Editor / Provider: a&s International | Updated: 4/11/2013 | Article type: Tech Corner

Real-life HD-SDI deployments have been scarce, due to practical issues such as component options, truly full HD performance (1,080p at 25 to 30 fps per channel) and pricing acceptability; the relatively high costs of 8- and 16-channel packages have limited uptake by the traditional channels. Things are changing for the better in 2013, however, and this feature looks into what the future holds for this common broadcast technology in security.

HD is an unstoppable trend, thanks to advances in consumer electronics. Security surveillance has been bitten by the same bug; once you go for sharper images, you never go back. Previously, the only way to get better-than-analog surveillance footage was through megapixel cameras and NVRs. Not any more. According to IMS Research, HD over coax products (SDI, SLOC, 960H) are forecast to capture around 5 percent of the video surveillance market revenues by 2016; with the overall worldwide projection at US$20.5 billion, that means a slightly over $1-billion business.

Price has been a chief stumbling block. Choices in deliverable HD-SDI DVRs were limited and at a premium, until late 2012. “The average price for 4-channel HD-SDI DVRs has dropped about 30 percent,” said Danny Tang, VP of Sales and Marketing at Shany Electronic. “As more manufacturers and chip developers, more models are coming out. We are looking forward to the increased competitiveness this year.”

Tony Lin, Manager of EverFocus Electronics, agreed. “We foresee SDI prices coming down to a level on par with high-end traditional analog devices, with a better chance to win over customers looking to upgrade. We believe the improved product availability will hit squarely in the middle of the traditional analog market. This will include any market that hasn't already turned to IP.”

Applications That Could Benefit
Most of the approached industry contacts found it hard to see large-scale HD-SDI deployments, but some saw unique potential. “Our SDI solution is ideal for recording legal proceedings and can be used across multiple courtrooms simultaneously,” said Vanne Lin, Executive VP at iCatch. “Advantages include ease of use, no lag time or frame-rate interruptions, free from bandwidth limitations, stability and reliability, and high image quality.”

Keeping existing analog cabling infrastructure intact is another advantage. “For example, there are quite a few historic sites in Europe, and changing all the wiring to Ethernet might be out of the question,” Tang said. “We already have some European customers asking for HD-SDI solutions. Japan also shows great potential, due to a large analog installed base. To offer customized solutions and meet local needs, we designed features to include power over coaxial and remote control.”

More cost-effective HD-SDI bundles could spark increased deployment in retail. “In the U.S., chips and PIN codes on credit cards never caught on, and they still prefer to sign slips or checks,” said Alan Hayes, founder and MD of AMG Systems. “This slows down payment processing. Currently, there are considerations in terms of introducing ‘touch panel payment solutions' that the customer simply touches their credit card to a pad. [In this case], there may be a requirement for HD for proof of identity solutions.” Dahua Technology targets market segments that require HD but have huge existing coaxial infrastructure, such as banking, gaming and traffic monitoring. “Korea and Japan are leading SDI deployment in the APAC region,” said Xuping Zhong, Product Engineer at Dahua Technology. “Growth in other countries is moderate in verticals such as banking, casinos and city surveillance.”

Gas stations may also benefit from HD-SDI. “Gas stations mostly install only limited or basic surveillance,” said Lin of EverFocus. “We have noted, however, the need for increasing resolution in this sector, especially in self-service areas. Due the fact that gas stations are potentially dangerous environments, we believe that SDI is the perfect solution because it can provide resolution increases over existing coaxial cable.”

Advances in Components
HD-SDI reference designs are now available from Altera, Ambarella, Hisilicon Technologies, Texas Instruments and Xilinx, possibly making overall solutions more price-competitive. Increasing availability of ISPs also means that integrators and installers may need to pay more attention to different combinations and developments of sensors, FPGAs and reference designs, said Alf Chang, Senior Technical Consultant at a&s.

Design and Installation Considerations
The situation for video system designers has improved markedly over the last year with the widespread availability of HDcctv equipment, which makes any installer experienced with regular CCTV equipment already prepared to make the move to HD surveillance, said Todd Rockoff, Executive Director at HDcctv Alliance. “Despite this simplicity, newcomers to HDcctv should be aware of some technical points in interoperability, cable length, storage and integration. The next-generation HDcctv standard is on track for ratification mid-2013, bringing new capabilities and benefits for integrators and installers. The chips soon to be introduced that implement next-generation capabilities of the HDcctv standard promise to further accelerate the migration of security to HD surveillance video.”

HD-SDI Enabled
Some manufacturers are thinking ahead to offer easy migration or hybrid solutions for installers and end users. For instance, Hi Sharp offers HD-SDI and analog hybrid DVRs so that users can choose the most suitable cameras for different locations.

Shany provides DVRs with 2 channels of SDI and 8 channels of analog, along with embedded management software, to target the SMB market. Tribrid solutions, with IP, are available as well. “We will continue our efforts in easy-to-use remote configuration design and increased transmission distance to cope with the needs of installers,” Tang said. “SDI for nonsecurity applications and SDI speed domes are our R&D focus as well.”

Webgate (a Daemyung Enterprise company) will focus on integration of HD-SDI DVRs and ONVIF compliance to accommodate diverse user needs. “Since our HD-SDI DVR has network connectivity, video from our HD-SDI cameras can be acquired through a DVR or IP encoder,” said Chris Kim, Marketing Manager. “Hybrid products for analog and HD-SDI will lose their merits soon. We are preparing a long-term plan for hybrid products with IP and HD-SDI.”

iCatch concentrates on management software and mobile applications. “We are one of the first to develop 16-channel HD-SDI DVRs with real-time record/playback function in Asia,” Lin at iCatch said. “Users can fully enjoy the bundled CMS feature. In addition, the DVR also supports Windows/Mac OS and app (iOS/Android) platforms, so users are able to keep an eye on what they care about most, regardless of where they are. Users might not care or know whether their surveillance solutions are IP-based or HD-SDI, but they will care whether the surveillance system can be viewed and managed remotely.”

Polish stadium offers secure lifestyle

Editor / Provider: Axis Communications | Updated: 3/26/2013 | Article type: Government & Public Services

MOSRiR, a facility management of sports venues in Szczecin, Poland deployed an IP-based video surveillance system to monitor the Florian Krygier Municipal Stadium in September 2012. Local installer mvb installed the system consisting of Axis Communications high speed domes with 360 degrees pan capacity and fixed cameras equipped with directional microphones and supervisory, registration and protection position. New infrastructure was built to accommodate the installation of cameras.

The video surveillance covers all points of the stadium from the ticket counters to the gate doors, roads for emergency services, evacuation routes, parking areas, and seating sections for the fans up to the pitch itself. The sports venue also covers sports clubs and associations, physical culture, tourism organizations.

Axis was chosen for its stable and open platform and scalability, said Maciej Arndt, Technical Director for mvb. The installation of the cameras has allowed the stadium management to observe areas in real-time, and archive audio and video recordings, said Waldemar Gill, Director of Szczecin, MOSRiR. In addition, the cameras meet the revised technical requirements for the organization of mass events, which is currently regulated by the Polish Ministry of Internal Affairs and Administration.

The system gives a professional support tool not only to MOSRiR employees but also to police and law enforcement officials. Safety of visitors depends on the continuous monitoring of critical areas. Moreover, if the operator detects a suspicious incident, they can immediately inform the police which significantly helps prevents incidents from occurring and allows quick response.

Asia Update: Truen stays ahead with IP speed domes

Editor / Provider: Truen | Updated: 3/25/2013 | Article type: Hot Topics

Founded in 2005, Truen's products are used in transportation, broadcasting, security, and city surveillance. Some of its important clients include the highway authority of Korea, the Korea Expressway Corporation (KEC), and major television and radio network Korean Broadcasting System. With various network solutions to satisfy the needs of system integrators (SI), the company is able to form good working relationships with more than 100 local SIs. Aside from possessing high tech development skills, Truen's focus on the domestic market allowed the company to achieve a better understanding of local user requirements.

Though considered a late entrant of the industry, Truen acted as a pioneer in developing advanced technology. Not only was it the first Korean manufacturer to launch H.264 products in 2006, it was also one of the first in the industry to release a series of cameras and servers with 1,080p resolution at 60 frames per second in 2012, providing even higher resolution images in real time, and also surpassing current industry standards. Staying true to its innovative ways, Truen is also one of the first companies who are able to develop thermal IP cameras compliant to ONVIF and PSIA standards. As thermal cameras usually require higherstandards, in terms of algorithm and computing power, very few companies are able to achieve that. Upon the development of this thermal camera, the company is able to create new verticals as different industries realize its use in various applications. Being one of the first ONVIF members, Truen joined the organization in 2010. Within a year of joining, all of Truen's products became ONVIF-compliant.

Truen entered the foreign market in 2007 to market its own brand name, also with small ODM orders. With growing competition from China, Oscar Yoon, Overseas Sales Team Manager at Truen, believed targeting high-end megapixel network speed domes to be the best way to counter Chinese products saturating the low- to mid-end sector. Truen will continue the expansion of its network HD speed dome products portfolio, NVR, and 128-channel VMS. The company also plans to add intelligent functions to its cameras, so it will simultaneously possess both VMS and VCA functions.

In the upcoming years, Yoon said DVR sales will continue to drop and SDI products will face a similar fate. After all, IP surveillance products are the mainstream, with unlimited potential and room for development. Yoon also had high hopes for 3G-SDI, believing it will also have widespread adoption, as it can provide faster transfer rates of uncompressed HD video. Truen's network cameras are capable of transmitting both HDMI and HD-SDI, fitting the standards of the KEC. This user-friendly flexibility is also why Japanese customers select Truen products.

Taiwan food processor grows security infrastructure with company

Editor / Provider: VIVOTEK | Updated: 3/8/2013 | Article type: Commercial Markets

I-Mei Foods, one of Taiwan's largest food product manufacturers since 1934, recently underwent a major security upgrade by replacing its outdated analog surveillance system with VIVOTEK IP cameras. VIVOTEK assessed, planed and implemented the upgrade at the I-Mei Apprentices Training Center (ATC) with 330 cameras. An optical fiber network was also installed to accommodate bandwidth requirements from the megapixel cameras.

The food company's main objective was to enable system administrators to perform remote monitoring through a centralized control room, and implement the system over a secure, autonomous network environment. One of the challenges of the project was the diverse environments the cameras would need to operate in, since the facility encompasses two production areas, including an exhibition and display area, retail operations and an outdoor natural park.

To meet these needs, 281 weatherproof 1.3-megapixel bullet cameras were installed in the production areas to provide high-resolution video. The outdoor camera with its IP66-rated housing can withstand occasional high temperatures and humidity. Eleven outdoor HD WDR cameras were also installed to monitor the grounds and access points of the center. The cameras can retain clear images under challenging lighting conditions and help capture license plates of vehicles entering and exiting the site. The video system at the retail area allows for clear views of the pass of sales between customers and cashiers, according to two managers at the I-Mei engineering department.

In addition, VIVOTEK installed 37 dome cameras for discreet monitoring inside the elevators, and a 2-megapixel speed dome with 20x zoom and WDR support in the Eco Village park area. I-Mei is using the latter primarily to capture attractive footage from the park, a function for which its HD video capabilities make it eminently suited.

Asia Update: DynaColor rises with IP

Editor / Provider: Christine Chien, a&s International | Updated: 2/25/2013 | Article type: Hot Topics

As one of the major OEM/ ODM video surveillance companies in Taiwan, DynaColor started out as a provider of automatic optical inspection (AOI) devices to CRT and LCD manufacturers, used to examine and test for defects and/or abnormal activities in their products or during the production process. Aside from its AOI devices, the company also made CRT monitor auto alignment systems, multiplexers, and DVRs used in various applications such as government, retail, and school systems. DynaColor then proceeded to produce PTZ speed domes. Leveraging the company's expertise in software design and its powerful R&D team, DynaColor was able to succeed in launching network cameras and recorders. The series of advancements highlight the extremely technology-centric qualities of the company. As a publicly listed company, DynaColor strives to maintain its products, quality, and innovation.

Though the company suffered during the financial crisis, DynaColor survived when most companies would have folded. The company stood its ground and managed to remain in the Security 50 ranking of industry players who excelled despite tough economic circumstances. Instead of faltering, DynaColor toughed out its setback and came out strong in 2012.

Anthony Yeh, VP of DynaColor, revealed that an astounding 40 percent of the employees at DynaColor are in R&D. Among those R&D staff, 50 percent are devoted to software development. Their strong engineering background gives DynaColor a boost in overcoming the most challenging times. Flexibility is always key for the company to stay on top. According to Yeh, DynaColor plans to remain as a professional OEM/ODM company because they are highly confident in its business model and development capability. Also, brand marketing requires massive resources, both financial and physical.

Growth in IP
DynaColor stepped into the IP market relatively early around 2003 and produced its first network camera with H.263 compression. However, the market for IP video had not been fully matured, with very few companies developing IP products. Hence, DynaColor decided to take a step back to focus on its production of embedded DVRs. During its hiatus from IP development, DVRs became the main source of revenue for DynaColor, making up 60 percent of its production.

DynaColor decided to take a second shot at the IP market in 2008. That year, they produced around 50,000 IP cameras, five times the amount produced previously. The IP production rate continued to increase through 2011 and 2012. In 2012, 49 percent of DynaColor's products were IP cameras, followed by PTZ speed domes at 33 percent, and DVRs at around 12 percent. Some DVRs are enhanced with network functions, and these hybrid DVRs are capable of supporting both network and analog cameras. The remaining are high-end DVRs which record and play back D1 resolution in real time with local display.

According to Yeh, 80 percent of the company's productions were IP products in 2012, a 30 percent increase from its IP products manufactured in 2011.

Customer Oriented
Clients tend to make orders in small quantities but with various products, which can add to production costs. To solve this problem, DynaColor tries to minimize the differences between its product models and delivers product parts with the most efficient logistics possible to balance production costs. Having that flexibility allows the company to provide clients with the option to customize their orders and standardize their products.

As for traditional clients who are more accustomed to analog cameras and products, DynaColor has a NVR and IP camera solution for traditional four- to 32-channel players that are PoE, plug-and-play, single cable, and requires minimal configuration, making it easier to use and install than analog systems. A prime example is DynaColor's affordable H.264 NVR, able to support 1,080p real-time recording, dual streaming, and full-HD display. Additionally, the NVR integrates a PoE switch, which helps network cameras to be plug-and-play during the installation. It is designed for entry/middle-end surveillance markets such as schools, convenience stores, gas stations, and communities. Since network cameras could be discovered automatically, technicians will not need to have extensive IP-related knowledge or experience to complete the installation.

Future Direction
DynaColor plans to remain in the OEM/ODM business. The company is looking to increase its sales revenue to achieve at least double-digit growth for this year. Along with the new year, DynaColor is also preparing to launch a series of new products, such as plug-andplay NVRs for professional and economical recording applications, as well as network cameras with higher megapixel support and embedded video analytic functions. Even though DynaColor suffered annual revenue decrease in 2011, the company has since bounced back better than ever.
