"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.
