ObjectVideo OnBoard is a novel product line that includes ObjectVideo's leading intelligent video application software optimised for operation with TI's DSP-based digital media processors.

ObjectVideo OnBoard is a novel product line that includes ObjectVideo's leading intelligent video application software optimised for operation with TI's DSP-based digital media processors ObjectVideo OnBoard is designed to help original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) build intelligent capability directly into their products, allowing them to further differentiate their products, accelerate time to market, and more easily offer customer-specific solutions

"As a leader in providing actionable intelligence solutions for networked video security and business intelligence, Verint is leveraging TI's TMS320DM64xT generation of DSP-based digital media processor and ObjectVideo OnBoard to expand our suite of advanced analytics edge devices to the security market", said Jean-Paul Saindon, Senior Vice President, Video Product Development, Verint.

"With the addition of ObjectVideo OnBoard, we are enhancing our own DSP-based analytics capabilities and continuing to offer our customers advanced technologies to address their diverse security requirements".

OEMs that announced the incorporation of ObjectVideo OnBoard in their products at ISC West 2005 include CoVi Technologies, a provider of advanced high definition IP cameras, and MangoDSP, a leading provider of DSP-based video processing platforms.

Additional OEM security platform providers will announce their participation in the ObjectVideo OnBoard program next quarter.

"The use of ObjectVideo's algorithms on a TI DSP-based platform allows CoVi to bring to market its Crystal HD high-definition video surveillance system with video analytics built in to it", said Barry E Walker, CEO of CoVi Technologies.

"Each ObjectVideo enhanced CVQ-2100 series camera operating within a Crystal HD network provides dedicated DSP compute cycles and metadata tagged hard disk storage resources".

"Overall, this allows us to bring a truly intelligent platform to market, benefiting both our commercial and government clients".

ObjectVideo OnBoard enables the development of embedded systems for security end equipment, such as video cameras, digital video recorders, network encoders or other video management platforms, which will make intelligent video analysis more accessible to the mass market.

By incorporating ObjectVideo's software into TI's high-performance DM64xT generation of DSP-based digital media processors, advanced video analytical capabilities are able to reside directly in edge devices.

These end products will not only be able to capture and compress video for storage or streaming, but also analyse the video for security breaches and other unwanted occurrences, such as intruders or objects theft and generate real-time alerts.

Distributing these capabilities throughout a security system reduces the hardware requirements for an intelligent security system, thereby reducing system requirements and the overall cost of ownership for the end user.

Additionally, end users benefit from higher performance, more flexible configuration options and improved bandwidth utilisation.
