Azena has upgraded its open platform for smart cameras that offer new integration capabilities for smart cameras into existing video surveillance systems and tools for more efficient device management for systems integrators. Integrators using the Azena platform and the AI-enabled video analytics from the Azena app store have wider control over large groups of devices, apps and configurations running on their customers' smart cameras with the Azena operating system.
The new integration capabilities make it simpler for the integrator to configure and deploy smart cameras using specialized analytics — which produce unique events — into a customer’s existing video surveillance system. Metadata from these specialized analytics, such as weapons detection, tank level monitoring or flood detection, are automatically converted into events for some of the most popular video management software platforms from Milestone, Genetec and Network Optics. This supports integrators in creating vertical and customer-specific, end-to-end solutions that leverage video analytics data across systems and departments.
