OnSSI announces a technology partnership with Safety Vision, LLC, an industry leading vendor of mobile video surveillance solutions. The collaboration enables integration of Safety Vision’s RoadRecorder® 8000 mobile server with OnSSI’s Ocularis 5 VMS for viewing and management of cameras on a single mobile server in transportation applications. This allows users to integrate images from mobile camera systems installed in vehicles with stationary cameras on the Ocularis 5 VMS platform to deliver greatly improved situational awareness and documentation.

“The transportation industry is increasingly turning to video surveillance to ensure the security and safety of passengers, employees, cargo and vehicles,” said Mulli Diamant, VP of International Business Development, OnSSI. “OnSSI and Safety Vision have teamed-up to provide the transportation industry with a surveillance and security solution that transcends traditional mobile imaging and recording through integration of our versatile Ocularis 5 VMS platform.”

The joint solution maximizes operational efficiency and offers improved management of cameras, recordings and storage. This solution allows users to manage well over 100 cameras on a single mobile server. This is achieved with RoadRecorder 8000’s dual removable hard drives with up to 4 terabytes of total storage and 16 digital inputs and outputs. A built-in relay powers external devices such as WiFi or PoE switches. The advanced RoadRecorder 8000 is EN50155 certified for rolling stock/railway applications.

“Securing transportation systems is complex and requires collaboration among vendors,” said Dustin Michalek, Director of Technology, Safety Vision. “Our relationship with OnSSI helps us deliver the higher levels of security needed to protect the critical transportation industry.”

Ocularis 5 offers a unique combination of enhanced features, recording versatility, robust network security via data encryption that transcend conventional VMS solutions. Recent additions to the Ocularis 5 platform include: an auto-updating feature like those available on most smartphones and tablets; Smart Camera Driver technology provides out-of-the-box support for newly introduced cameras from industry-leading camera manufacturers; and server redundancy of the Ocularis Recorder.

Ocularis 5 is offered in three models: Professional, designed for organizations operating multiple locations with small to mid-sized camera counts; Enterprise, built for a wide range of mid to large IT-centric organizations; and Ultimate, created for large organizations with extended command and control needs and recording server failover.
