The heightened integration will provide smoother, full-frame-rate live and recorded playback of Mobotix video, lower bandwidth and storage requirements, and improved management of Mobotix video streams with Ocularis features such as the Kinetic Timeline and export of full-frame rate video.

The closer integration and improved functionality will benefit existing Onssi customers who use Ocularis software with Mobotix megapixel surveillance cameras. Unlike other systems, the decentralised Mobotix concept incorporates a high-speed computer into every camera to reduce network bandwidth because video is processed on the camera itself and images do not have to be transferred continuously. The companies believe that the enhanced integration between Onssi and Mobotix will open the door for more customers to combine the high-resolution and decentralised storage benefits of Mobotix with the ability of Ocularis to deliver open architecture, scalability and automation of security processes at reduced operating costs.

“Close technical partnerships and proven levels of integration are critical to providing customers with seamless security solutions,” said Steve Gorski, General Manager, Americas, Mobotix Corp. “Our collaboration with Onssi demonstrates our commitment to providing open IP video solutions that deliver unmatched video quality, ease of management and integration, and cost effectiveness.”

“This new integration with Mobotix is another way we are responding to customer needs,” said Gadi Piran, President and Chief Technology Officer, Onssi. “Mobotix has a large and growing customer base, and many of those customers also use Ocularis. As an open-platform product, Ocularis can combine Mobotix cameras and multiple additional technologies into a single, user-friendly platform to provide greater functionality.”
