A Tree Grows In Brooklyn. And How A Camera Company Grows In Glendale.
Our story below is a good-deal different from that of the Irish-American Francie Nolan found in the 1943 classic. But when you consider what Michael Kaplinsky, Ph.D., and Vladimir Berezin, Ph.D., created in 2003 -originally from Russia- you should be similarly inspired. Axis Communications is credited with being the first IP-camera manufacturer back in 1996. And today there are a plethora of IP-camera manufacturers that have jumped into the market. Security.World has the count at over 350 camera manufacturers. Interestingly, many of those manufacturers entered the market early when it was still ?standard definition? resolution. Companies such as IQeye became a very popular ?SD? camera manufacturer. They rose quickly and gained significant market success. And they also made a wager on the industry that ?megapixel? would not catch on and become viable. Then there were companies —such as Arecont Vision— that made just the opposite wager. Megapixel was going to be ?the norm? and the two well-educated company founders put everything they could into building a megapixel camera manufacturer that would deliver on the promise of high-definition resolution.
