Comtex BEDFORD, Mass., March 16, 2010 -- VideoIQ, the leader in video surveillance innovation, today introduced
iCST streaming cameras and encoders. iCST streaming cameras and encoders
are designed for use in environments with central storage and 3rd party
video management systems. All feature VideoIQ's award winning video
analytics for the most accurate real-time threat detection.
"VideoIQ is a Milestone Solutions Partner whose offerings are integrated
with our XProtect™ open platform IP video management software," said
Eric Fullerton, CSMO at Milestone Systems. "When it comes to getting
the most out of video surveillance, intelligence from such advanced
analytics can make a significant difference, and HD megapixel technology
expands the capabilities vastly."
VideoIQ iCST streaming cameras and encoders build upon the success of
VideoIQ's iCVR cameras and encoders, which have achieved rapid market
adoption and industry award recognition. With VideoIQ's embedded,
adaptive analytics, iCST cameras and encoders automatically calibrate in
minutes, delivering superior real-time threat detection while reducing
installation time, resources, complexity and cost.
"VideoIQ is an OnSSI partner whose products are integrated with our
Ocularis PSIM and Video Management Solutions," said Jeff Knapp, Vice
President of Marketing at OnSSI. "OnSSI is always interested in adding
value to our end-users and the new VideoIQ line of iCST cameras and
encoders deliver comprehensive analytics to our joint customers out of
the box."
Features of the VideoIQ iCST cameras and encoders include:
The most advanced video analytics in the industry: iCST camera and
encoder real-time threat detection relies on VideoIQ's award winning
adaptive analytics. Uniquely distinguishing people, vehicles and boats
from other objects, animals and scene movement, VideoIQ's adaptive
analytics deliver the most accurate threat detection on the market. The
cameras and encoders issue alarms only when there is a viable threat,
saving time and money by enabling security personnel to focus only on
events of high interest.
Available resolutions to 1080P: The VideoIQ iCST camera and encoder line
includes the iCST-MP, delivering dramatic 1080P video at up to 30
frames per second. With almost seven times the resolution of a standard
VGA camera, iCST-MP customers can digitally zoom in for superior detail,
or cover nearly three times the horizontal area with a single camera -
reducing costs by allowing customers to cover the same area with fewer
cameras. And with the only on-camera megapixel analytics, customers can
take advantage of over two times the range of D1 analytics. Standard
resolution iCST camera models feature powerful Pixim® wide dynamic
range day/night sensors for outstanding video quality in the broadest
range of conditions.
Self-calibration: VideoIQ's adaptive analytics are 100%
self-calibrating, eliminating the need to tune or adjust the analytics
during installation. VideoIQ's adaptive analytics also continuously
calibrate, getting more accurate with each object detected. As a result,
customers gain the highest level of accuracy on the market while
reducing ongoing maintenance time and resources.
Ready for any environment. VideoIQ's iCST family of cameras and encoders
include vandal proof IP66 rated outdoor and indoor domes, box cameras
and single channel encoders. A full line of mounting accessories is also
available for any indoor or outdoor use.
Open Integration. All VideoIQ products are integrated with leading video
management systems, command and control integration platforms, and
access control systems. For a complete list of integrations, please

"For little more than the cost of a conventional IP or HD camera,
customers with centralized storage are now able to deploy a proactive
surveillance system." said Scott Schnell, President and CEO of VideoIQ.
"By delivering real-time alerts, iCST cameras and encoders allow
operations to rapidly assess and mitigate security threats before
incidents occur - while still capturing high quality forensic evidence."
