545 Genetec has announced the availability of Omnicast, its IP video surveillance system, for onboard mass transit applications. Omnicast - the video surveillance system of the Security Center, Genetec's unified security platform - is the only system of its type certified as an approved product from the United States 1742 Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

According to Genetic, there is now no need to have disparate or partially integrated video systems for fixed and mobile surveillance. Mass transit authorities can deploy Omnicast as their single video platform throughout their terminals and onboard their fleet of vehicles, using one interface to seamlessly manage all cameras in their transit operations. Other advantages include its native IP capabilities for real-time video monitoring and automatic video transfer via wireless connectivity over WiFi or cellular networks.

Truck drivers know the drill: pull off the high­way at every weighstation and wait. Carriers know the drill, too: every minute spent waiting there translates directly into dollars lost. Traditionally, the only alternative to this scenario is a transponder-based system, which allows trucks to bypass the sites using technology similar to
