547 Vicon Industries has released ViconNet Version 6, the latest version of its open-platform video management software that offers full support for H.264 encoding and is compatible with a wide range of third-party network and megapixel cameras. According to the company, its support of ONVIF standards provides users with many options for integration with consumer off-the-shelf network video and computer hardware.

A new Web browser interface allows users of ViconNet V6 to view live and recorded video from any PC, without the use of special software or plug-ins. Other additions with V6 include a unique video vault feature that allows for more efficient use of long-term storage and an archive wizard that makes it easy to create authenticated archives that play back on any PC using the embedded player. ViconNet V6 is available as a software-only solution or may be ordered pre-loaded onto NVRs, workstations or hybrid DVRs.

Vicon has also expanded its line of high-performance PTZ camera domes to include the Surveyor HD, a 1.3 megapixel model which provides a choice of H.264, MPEG-4 and M-JPEG encoding options. The new unit, which combines a powerful day/night megapixel camera, equipped with x18 optical zoom, is available in indoor, outdoor, pressurised and maximum-security models. The company claims the camera offers four times the resolution of standard-definition cameras with the benefits of 360o continuous rotation, a wide range of programmable features, exceptional zoom, focus, pan and tilt speeds, and preset accuracy. The camera's ONVIF open architecture allows for integration with a wide range of video management solutions.
