Vicon H.264 encoders

Vicon Industries has introduced two new H.264 network encoders - four-channel and 16-channel models - that convert analogue camera inputs (both NTSC/EIA and PAL/CCIR) into streamed IP video data. Advanced features such as museum search that permits users to conduct quick analysis of recorded events, as well as dynamic load balancing and automatic detection, are provided when the device is used as part of a ViconNet Video Management System (VMS).
