Physical security system performance specialist Viakoo has been awarded a patent by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), covering methods for independently calculating the actual time period of retention for an individual video data stream on a recording system. Viakoo has implemented this patent in its products to automatically detect, track and validate video retention compliance (VRC) as a key performance metric.
 
The automation replaces methods currently being used which rely on manual processes, simple checks of time stamps on oldest files, or assertions from the video management software on when it thinks it deleted data. These methods are subject to significant error and are unable to detect tampering.

    When a company launches a product it never quite knows how that product will be used and what else it may be required to do. Lufft’s mobile weather sensor MARWIS is a prime example. Last winter Lufft introduced MARWIS, its mobile road weather sensor, handing it initially to long-term sales partners to test and improve. What was known was the sensor’s fast reaction rate (up to 100 Hertz), combined with its wide range of measurement information, and would provide users with a gapless overview of the road stat
