Wavestore, the British manufacturer of Video Management Software (VMS), has launched v6.6 of its VMS. This new version is available as an upgrade for existing users and will be shipped as standard with all new orders.
The latest version introduces Wavestore’s Smart Search feature, compatible with ONVIF Profile S cameras, where operators can highlight a specific region within a scene, set the sensitivity level and at the same time retrieve video relating to any movement in that area. This allows large amounts of recorded footage to be searched, the developers say, presenting only the required video to users. For added convenience, the relevant search results are highlighted as a different colour on the playback time line bar and can simply be clicked to display the relevant video footage.
The new version delivers the firm says enhanced event management for an operator’s situational awareness of events as they occur. Alerts from any integrated third-party equipment, as well as the VMS, are available. This can include events from any mix of devices and sub-systems including access control, intruder detection, building management systems, and analytics. These are presented in the live event stream window of Wavestore’s WaveView client, and can also be used to trigger responses both on the Wavestore server itself or on external systems via the event rules engine.
Julian Inman, Head of Product Management, says: “Wavestore has always had lightning-fast search and playback capability with its play bar feature but with the introduction of Smart Search we add even more power to forensic search. What’s more, with Wavestore’s ‘one screen, total control’ philosophy, operators can simply control and manage their entire best-in-breed security solution from just a single screen, getting exactly what they want for their specific requirements.”
Wavestore’s Open Platform Technology Partner Programme sees v6.6 integrating as standard with the latest camera models from leading vendors such as 360 Vision, Axis, Dahua, Hanwha Techwin, Hikvision, Mobotix, Sony, Uniview and Vivotek. Several new and enhanced optional Integration Modules are now available, including Raytec LED lighting and Datapath video walls.
Wavestore v6.6 is now shipping with all new orders and is available as an update for users who have active upgrade bundles. Integration modules are available to bolt on; or can be ordered at time of purchase.
