LAS VEGAS, NV -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 04/02/08 -- ISC West -- Eptascape, www.eptascape.com, thepioneer in application of MPEG-7 video analytics technology, introducedMPEG-7 remote site monitoring today at ISC West. Using any high speedinternet connection, security monitors directly view remote or unattendedsites either receiving alerts in real-time or by reviewing stored footageof events from the site. Eptascape's MPEG-7 remote security monitoringenables both view and control of multiple analog or digital remote cameraswith multiple behavior analysis, tracking and alert.Eptascape's remote site monitoring addresses new responsibilities thatpertain as new trends in crime emerge. Scrap metal theft; industrial-planttheft; construction site vandalism and theft; employee theft and falseinjury claims; vulnerabilties at power, communications, chemical, andtransportation facilities; and all kinds of opportunities for terrorismcreate new concerns and responsibilities for commercial and governmentsecurity surveillance. Often, areas most at risk are inhospitable toguards, yet are easy targets for determined criminals. The ability tomonitor these types of sites at any time and from anywhere is critical intoday's security environment, and Eptascape makes it possible.
"We selected Eptascape for our new solar power plant where we will installPV panels worth millions of dollars. With Eptascape MPEG-7 analytics wegreatly reduce the bandwidth required to monitor remote locations 24/7,"said Mr. Michele Appendino, Chairman and CEO of Solar Ventures, an emergingEuropean energy company and one of the biggest producers of PV solar energyin Italy.
"Eptascape can quickly respond as security surveillance needs change,because our MPEG-7 basis is inherently suitable to security videosurveillance and adaptable to new requirements," said Marco Graziano,Eptascape founder and CEO. "We are implementing remote site monitoring andintrusion detection at many facilities worldwide and thwarting criminalswhen they think no one is watching. With MPEG-7, we're able to perform themost sophisticated analytics possible for remote monitoring applications inany mix of analog and digital cameras."
MPEG-7 Effects Intelligent Security Immediately and Affordably
Because Eptascape applies MPEG-7, a standard that is inherently capable ofbehavior identification and search, video analytics becomes practical forany application. Intelligent remote surveillance becomes easily andaffordably applied to any camera or network of cameras, whether locatedremotely or locally, because high bandwidth processing and front-endbehavior modification are eliminated. As MPEG-7 video analytics isoptimized for event-based search and surveillance, operators are freed tomove and patrol while assured of wide-area automated detection thatactually exceeds human perception and provides instant alerts to trouble.DSP-based video analytics, with quick and easy configuration andinstallation, comprise Eptascape's plug-and-play approach. Eptascapeincludes multiple behaviors and events detection, including Advanced MotionDetection; Abandoned Objects; Loitering; Directional Trespassing; DirectionFlow Detection; Object Counting and Average Speed; Objects Removed; andTailgating.
Eptascape's MPEG-7 remote site monitoring and tracking can be useful insmall or larger video surveillance applications -- any areas that arevulnerable, yet not patrolled.
