RSSAccording to UK company 7661 Cloudview, its Cloudview VSaaS (video surveillance as a service) solution harnesses current technology to provide a security system to remotely monitor people.

Comprising a small yet highly intelligent visual network adapter (VNA) connected to the company’s cloud-based visual network system (VNS), Cloudview is a scalable, user-friendly and affordable platform. It can be managed and accessed from a browser using a notebook, tablet or smartphone, anywhere in the world, to extend surveillance systems to: cope with remote sites; add remote monitoring and alerting to an existing CCTV system; protect video footage from tampering and/or potential loss; add visual verification to intruder alarm systems; enable analogue CCTV customers to upgrade to IP technology at their own pace; and minimise the cost of upgrading to IP surveillance by reusing existing analogue cameras.Cloudview’s VNA creates a unique internet connection between each CCTV camera and the user’s protected account on Cloudview’s cloud-based management system.  Regardless of where the cameras are located, they can securely transmit encrypted footage to, and store it on, the Cloudview platform.

Cloudview firmware is automatically upgraded over the internet, with new releases automatically distributed and applied to both fix problems and deliver new features.

    Marseille’s city authority has added the monitoring of a second tunnel to the existing network with a new approach towards video management. Measuring 1.5km in length, the double-deck Prado Sud tunnel extends Marseille’s existing 2.5km Prado Carénage tunnel towards the southern part of the city. While it was logical to use a common control room and to use the latest detection and monitoring systems in the new tunnel, it was deemed too disruptive and costly to completely upgrade the existing tunnel.
