Samsung has launched a new version of its iPOLiS MOBILE app for use on iPhone and Android smartphones. The app gives access to Samsung cameras and DVRs, plus live and playback options.
Version 2.0 of the free app can be downloaded from iTunes and the Android market. It allows users to remotely control the pan, tilt and zoom functions of the manufacturer’s latest network cameras via an interface and is also compatible with the company’s SRD series DVRs. Set-up can take less than a minute, the makers says, letting users view streamed video from their selected camera via a wireless or 3G network.
Peter Ainsworth, Senior Product Manager for Samsung Techwin Europe Ltd, said: “The original version of this app has proved to be highly popular among customers who are looking to gain maximum benefit from their investment in a Samsung video system. Retail loss prevention managers who are not permanently based at one location, or in fact, any security manager who has responsibility for more than one site, can take advantage of the ability to remotely monitor live images of any suspicious activity or retrieve recorded video of any incident via their smartphone.”
