The Italian company Arteco reports that its Development Team is working on the video event management software Arteco NEXT. This is an open-platform software able to manage over 5000 IP devices, including cameras, encoders and I/O devices.
Arteco NEXT is now capable of managing third party NVRs as well, via dedicated protocol, leading to a centralized management of video surveillance systems. The aim is to achieve the greatest interoperability between security devices, in addition to video surveillance, so that the user can manage devices and systems of different types, brands and models, directly from the Arteco NEXT VEMS.
