A case study of a Latin American conference centre, Corferias in Bogota, the Columbian capital.
To direct visitor traffic through the site, Bosch has updated the centre’s video surveillance and fire detection systems. Local Bosch partner, Compania International de Integracion, was the installer.
The new Modular Fire Panel Series 5000 will the firms say increase fire protection at the centre, which is host to 50 events and over 1.5 million visitors a year. In addition to the centre’s original 100 analogue video cameras, Bosch has added 150 IP cameras, which monitor the 50,000 square-meter compound.
The Bosch Video Management System (BVMS) controls the cameras and works with the Video Recording Manager (VRM) and the Automatic Network Replenishment Technology (ANR) so that video records are saved locally in the event of a network interruption, to be retrieved when the network is up again. Video footage is available at all times.
Operators can use the BVMS app or the Video Security app on their mobile devices to manage the cameras from any location, streaming live as well as recorded footage. Thanks to Bosch’s Dynamic Transcoding Technology, available bandwidth does not affect remote transmission, the makers say.
