The Axis Q1942-E PT mount thermal network camera was awarded as being supported camera number 6,000.  This thermal camera highlights a growing trend in the industry. The ability to see infrared light is much more than being able to see in the dark. This type of camera is an ideal sensor for video analytics. It can enable trouble-free people counting or more advanced analytics, such as using vehicles’ heat signature to determine the average parking time for vehicles in a parking lot.

“Axis are delighted to be awarded the 6000th camera supported by Milestone. Axis and Milestone have been partners for many years and this award shows the depth of integration that Milestone has for our products." Doug Adams, Business Development Manager ADP and TPP, Axis Communications Northern Europe.

In addition, more than 50 new cameras from Arecont are included in this device pack and nine cameras from the Oncam Evolution series. 

Milestone works closely with device manufacturers in the Camera Partner Program (CaPP) to achieve optimal interaction between their devices and the Xprotect VMS. The same rigorous testing applies to driver standards like ONVIF.  “ONVIF is not just ONVIF. We ensure that all devices we list as supported are tested and certified with the exact ONVIF-version. Only by doing this can customers and integrators be assured the full functionality of ONVIF-devices.” Says Henrik Sydbo Hansen, Group Manager, Devices & Integrations, Milestone Systems. “We are fully transparent in this certification, and believe that we are leading the industry here.”
