Barco and Genetec integrate IP visualization and security in operations and control centers

The multinationals Barco and Genetec have once again joined their expertise resulting in an innovative Barco CMS plug-in integrated into Genetec's unified IP security solution, to improve visualization in operations and control centers.

The visualization and collaboration technology of ship and unified IP security of Genetec re-allied to improve visualization and efficiency in operations and control centers with the new Barco CMS plug-in (Control Suite Management) within the Genetec Omnicast IP video surveillance system.

In an emergency operations center (EOC), A second can be critical for survival and efficient decision-making. To this end,, The application node TransForm N of Barco and its management software for CMS control rooms has been integrated with the Genetec Omnicast system.

As a result,, Multiple operators working on an incident can quickly have visual information from numerous sources to form a common operational picture. This single point of view can be transferred to a videowall or any screen on the network, in order to provide a global vision to promote greater understanding and facilitate collaboration between the various agencies in the event of a large-scale emergency.

With the interface that is established between Barco CMS and Genetec Omnicast, public bodies can deliver IP video streams to the EOC in a secure and controlled manner, allowing access only to allowed sources, as well as the central record of each activity to ensure information security.

Operators can capture information from more sources and easily view video surveillance camera footage, dragging and dropping it at various points of view using the CMS graphical user interface. By gaining greater access and control of any type of IP video stream, Traders can accumulate a large amount of crucial information and organize it in an efficient way, improving situational awareness down to the last minute to ensure quick action.

As Francis Lachance points out, Genetec product manager, "We have been associated for many years to achieve the best security and surveillance tools for the market.. Our Omnicast video management system (VMS) integrates nicely with Barco's N TransForm platform, which allows us to demonstrate our ability to integrate".
