To guard her London home, Gabby Logan, the UK sports broadcaster, has chosen a IP video surveillance system from American Dynamics, part of the Security Products business unit of Tyco, and the West Sussex-based installer Vindex Systems. Pictured left to right are Kenny and Gabby Logan; Alan Riegler – Sales Director, UK and Ireland, Tyco Security Products; and Clive Talbot, Director, Vindex Systems.
Logan has covered the London Olympics for BBC and travelled the globe covering England’s football team, including this month the FIFA World Cup in Brazil. Crawley-based Vindex Systems, an installer of CCTV, access control and automatic number plate recognition, fitted the VideoEdge Network Video Recorder (NVR) and Illustra 600 outdoor mini-dome cameras. Using a monitor at home, the Logans can watch the video from the cameras on the grounds, view recorded video with the NVR, or save snapshots of specific video images.
Clive Talbot, Director, Vindex Systems, said: “As a busy professional, Gabby and her husband Kenny realised they needed to implement some type of system that allowed her to keep an eye on things at home while she took care of business on the road. We were pleased to offer her an efficient and comprehensive video surveillance system that allows her to remain connected.”
The system comes with the mobile app VideoEdge Go, a viewer for the VideoEdge NVR that aids remote monitoring and forensic investigating from anywhere. Compatible with all iOS devices, VideoEdge Go streams video via a wifi, 3G or 4G connection in H.264 rather than MJPEG for more efficient bandwidth and storage usage. Visit www.americandynamics.net.
