UK-based manufacturer of rugged CCTV cameras 8785 Redvision claims its VMS1000 will offer end users and installers a cost-effective, server-based control system. Digifort’s video management software powers the solution.


Stephen Lightfoot, technical director at Redvision, says the device maximises the functionality of the company’s X-Series and Volant rugged pan tilt zooms and Vega fixed cameras and is also integrated with 245 other CCTV brands.

“This enables the re-use of legacy CCTV cameras into surveillance projects, including encoding existing analogue cameras into the system, or the inclusion of new cameras and technologies”, Lightfoot adds.

The device’s standard analytics functionality includes traffic management, object tracking, loitering, virtual fence, missing object, abandoned object, face detection, vehicle counting and people counting.
