Wireless transmission product companies Vemotion and Ogier Electronics have announced a partnership. Thirsk based Vemotion will assist Ogier to deliver a 3G/4G transmission addition to Ogier’s new all weather, multi-terrain threat detection radar known as Scan-360.
Designed for commercial and military applications, Scan-360 was launched in 2014. What the makers call an all-encompassing version will be launched later this year and worldwide distribution will follow in 2017. To extend Scan-360 into areas where its microwave line of sight technology is impractical, 3G and 4G are necessary, hence a partnership with Vemotion.
Mark Rainbow, Marketing Director of Ogier Electronics, said: “As a microwave radar based perimeter protection system, Scan-360 has met with great success but we were keen to offer a holistic solution so the system could be used in multiple applications. A mutual third party introduced us to Vemotion and together we have integrated their 3G and 4G functionality into our system which now gives Scan-360 the all-round remote capability we were looking for.”
Based in St. Albans, Ogier and Vemotion have been working together for the last six months to integrate the Scan-360 with Vemotion’s wireless video transmission. The firm says that CCTV cameras can be set up in isolated areas and transmit images back to a command centre anywhere; and what is more, doesn’t rely on a fast broadband connection to do so.
Stewart McCone, pictured, Managing Director of Vemotion, said: “Ogier also provide mobile video solutions and fully integrated control room facilities and where Ogier need more traditional solutions, Vemotion can help.”
Ogier have agreed to represent Vemotion the company’s products at several trade shows. This will include Securex in Laos, Nigeria on March 24 to 26. Visit www.vemotion.com.
