Phnom Penh International Airport is the Kingdom ‘Capital City’s airport of Cambodia totaling over 20,000 square meters of passenger terminal space and 6,500 square meters of cargo capacity. With 2 million passengers annually, critical monitoring for passenger safety both in the terminal and in the cargo area will continue to become more demanding. Security professionals require improved monitoring tools to ensure their mandate of customer safety is achieved. Challenge With more than 2 million passengers traveling through 26,000 square meters of monitoring space, there has been a significant increase in the amount of monitoring required for passenger safety. The previous security system did not provide the necessary image quality, retention and flexibility needed for successful passenger monitoring, recording and alarm management. Solution “With the installation of Aimetis Symphony, we have improved our passenger and cargo monitoring, lengthened our video storage capabilities as well as customizing proactive video analytics. This has led to an overall strengthening of our security system and advancing our monitoring capabilities ,” Phnom Penh Airport Security Manager. Aimetis Symphony was the intelligent video management software of choice due to the analytic capabilities, the intuitive user interface and also it’s open system architecture. This allowed the Phnom Penh Airport the opportunity to customize the installation directly to their […]

Innovation In Video Surveillance Tech At A Crossroads: Part 2
Editor’s note: This is part two in a two-part series on video surveillance trends from the perspective of several industry experts. Part one examines overall industry trends, the continued migration to IP and how companies are continuing to provide support to the large existing base of analog device users. Part two delves into the progression of high-resolution imaging technology, developments at the edge and the future of video recording. Over the past several years, it seems as though there has been an arms race within the video surveillance industry when it comes to high-resolution cameras. Just a few years ago, only a handful of vendors offered cameras with high-megapixel imaging capabilities. Now HD resolution is the norm and some companies offer cameras that provide users with as much as 40 megapixels of resolution. There have also been great advancements over the last several years at the edge. Functions such as storage and analytics that could once only be performed on the server side are now being done within the cameras themselves. Has the market settled on a sweet spot for image resolution? What kind of impact will advancements in edge capabilities and onboard storage have on camera R&D over the next several years? Here’s what several experts had to say at the ASIS show this week in Chicago. SIW: Has the industry settled on how much resolution is needed for given applications or are we going to continue to see higher and higher megapixels in the years to come? […]

Innovation In Video Surveillance Tech At A Crossroads: Part 1
Editor’s note: This is part one in a two-part series on video surveillance trends from the perspective of several industry experts. Part one examines overall industry trends, the continued migration to IP and how companies are continuing to provide support to the large existing base of analog device users. Part two will delve into the progression of high-resolution imaging technology, developments at the edge and the future of video recording. Over the past decade, there has been a seismic shift in the evolution of video surveillance. What was once a relatively simple configuration of coaxial cable running from cameras to closed circuit television monitors and VCRs has been revolutionized by network connectivity and ever-increasing image processing power. The result has been the transformation of what once considered a “dumb” security sensor into an “intelligent” device that provides security managers with actionable data they can use to mitigate risks and more thoroughly investigate incidents after the fact. This is embodied in the multitude of video analytic capabilities offered by today’s video products at both the software and hardware levels. It can also be seen in the wide variety of high-resolution cameras that are currently available in the marketplace. Despite these technological advances and the tipping point for IP video equipment sales (at least in terms of revenues) being close at hand , the fact remains that analog still makes up the majority of camera installations and will remain a large part of the market for the foreseeable future. With that […]
