  IVIEW360™ Competitive Product  
  Purpose designed for CCTV Market CCTV market an afterthought
no presets, tours, sectors…
 
  Drop-in replacement for exiisting CCTV cameras
• Uses existing infrastructure
• No IT personnel is needed
•Plug and Play; all in one unit

  Real time Frame rate is bandwidth/compression dependent
 
  Continuous motion Jerky movement - prone to frame loss
 
  No lag Substantial image lag due to compression/decompression, switching, etc.
 
  3 Megapixel sensor 2 megapixel sensor
 
  Bigger image circle - 2.4 megapixel used Small image circle - 1.2 megapixel used
 
  Twice the effective resolution of competitive product's
•Higher resolution enables higher VCAM zoom
Limited zoom without pixelation
 
  Sensor image pipeline in the camera Third party camera does not allow in-camera manipulation of the image pipeline

 • Redundancy in alarm generation
 • Processes image at higher resolution
Resource limitations at th remote base when analyzing large images  
    All cameras rely on centralized control system
 
"In-Camera processing is critical for distributed CCTV in the future"
: : MOTION TRACKING 
  Real time Substantial delay (nearly 1 second)
  • encoding, decoding, routing, etc.
 
  Executed in camera - no external DVR or PC required Relies on external device, i.e. specialized DVR or PC
