Canadian security solutions provider, 545 Genetec, has introduced its Security Center, which blends licence plate recognition (LPR), video surveillance and access control into one easy-to-use platform.

This latest version of Security Center introduces new features designed to enhance video monitoring, simplify the system’s operation, and streamline upgrades and maintenance activities. Also featured is Plan Manager, a map-based interface that allows users to create a virtual environment from maps, floor plans, or GIS (geographic information system) maps for all types of sites such as cities, neighbourhoods, airports and buildings.

A platform independent, universal web client for video, access control, and license plate recognition allows customers to connect back to their platform to view live video streams, control PTZ cameras, configure aspects of their access control and LPR systems, and run reports from most web browsers.
