Idis is already known for its offerings of advanced, end-to-end video solutions, and now this offer is being extended and complemented, with innovations in communications and AI as well as camera technology.

Among the highlights will be an extended range of Idis’s multi-award-winning edge AI cameras, with nine new models including 2MP domes and bullets and 5MP turrets. The cameras feature the latest Lightmaster NIR technology, which enables superior night-time vision, and true WDR with weatherproofing suitable for the region’s most challenging conditions.

The extended line-up lets a wider range of users target the power Idis Deep Learning Analytics where they are needed, for faster, more accurate and dependable detection of objects, intrusion events, line cross, and loitering detection. The showcase model on this year’s stand will be a powerful 4MP AI PTZ that allows the unique choice of using preset events or manual selection of persons for interest allowing seamless AI-powered tracking over wide areas and long distances. Other new cameras include 2MP video intercoms that allow two communications via the cost-free Idis Center VMS, and Idis Mobile Plus app.

Over the last year, Idis has seen major retailers take advantage of the company's retail solutions such as the plug-in All-In-One AI Box for Retail (DV-1304) integrated with ERP software. At Intersec visitors will be able to experience the extended Smart Video Solutions for Retail encompassing PTZs with built in PoE extenders, edge AI bullets, domes and turrets, and a new affordable range of Lite Series cameras along with an 8-channel encoder that supports third-party cameras and simple and affordable point-of-sale (POS) integration. In addition, with the free Idis Cloud Manager, security teams and store managers can easily add and configure all their devices remotely.

The central focus of the Idis stand at this year’s Intersec will offer easier and more affordable, centralised AI-powered monitoring. The Idis Intelligent Wall Station (IWS) makes building and deploying dynamic video walls of any type and size fast and convenient. Offering improved value compared with many alternative systems, such as matrix video wall products, it allows easy control of 8 to 16 monitors. Operators can easily customise displays in real-time to show the most critical video streams, while they benefit from seamless compatibility with all Idis products including a range of AI box plug-in devices as well as integration and control of third-party cameras.

Parking guidance

IDIS will also be launching its parking guidance cameras, designed to support secure parking management, and to enhance the parking experience for drivers. Featuring three 5MP lenses, a 360-degree omnidirectional 12MP lens, and a built-in LED indicator, the cameras can simultaneously detect up to eight parking bays along with traffic corridors, to facilitate efficient direction of vehicles to assigned spaces. The cameras can be seamlessly integrated into parking payment systems using IDIS Solution Suite VMS.

For the first time, visitors will get to see push-to-talk over cellular (POC) solutions from Idis Powertel, one of South Korea’s leading radio communications companies. Now integrated with ISS VMS, the latest LTE radios feature advanced functions including instant group calling, messaging, GPS location tracking, and emergency notifications. By integrating video with critical communications, users can improve operational efficiency through better team collaboration to deal with everyday security and safety tasks, while ensuring faster and more co-ordinated incident responses.

“This will be one of our most significant showcase events of recent years, with exciting product launches and enhanced solutions innovations,” says Dennis Choi, General Manager, Idis Middle East & Africa. “Video technology is entering a new phase with the development of transformative AI and communications capabilities as well as demand for complete end-to-end solutions for a single manufacturer. Idis will be showcasing its advances in all of these fields that will benefit our customers in new and exciting ways.”
