Digital Security Surveillance

 

Overview

As the demands on digital security surveillance (DSS) systems become more complex, Intel® embedded platforms give equipment manufacturers and system integrators the opportunity to deliver increasingly sophisticated video surveillance solutions.

 

  • Performance. The processing muscle of Intel® architecture enables higher numbers of video channels, more complex video encoding/decoding, greater intelligence, and remote manageability, with the scalability to handle implementations both large and small.
  • Scalability. DSS providers may design a range of systems using different Intel® platforms while maintaining a common software code base, so they simplify software upgrades and shorten time to market.
  • Flexibility. Intel® solutions offer video decoding/encoding flexibility by using a software approach. Various video formats, such as MPEG4 and H.264, can be implemented on Intel platforms, allowing DSS providers to choose their preferred formats. Platforms can be easily upgraded when more advanced codec formats become available in the future.

 

These platforms form the basis for next-generation capabilities to gather, analyze, and store audio-visual surveillance data, taking advantage of an unparalleled hardware and software ecosystem, including members of the Intel® Intelligent Systems Alliance. DSS solutions based on Intel embedded platforms serve the full spectrum of surveillance requirements in facilities like airports, railway terminals, government and corporate buildings, utility infrastructures, educational campuses, financial institutions, and retail locations.
