"The highlight of the reception is the show plug fest, where member companies will demonstrate interoperable network video products," says Jonas Andersson at Axis Communications, Chairman of ONVIF's steering committee. "The first public plug fest, held at ASIS last year, was a big success with several companies showing interoperable cameras and video management software. We hope to see even more participants and products in Las Vegas".

All activities around ONVIF show that there is a great market interest for standardization within the security industry. The open forum has attracted more than 140 member companies and there are already more than 50 ONVIF conformant products available on the market. "I believe that ONVIF's accomplishments during the last year made it clear that a global standard for network video products is about to become reality," says Andersson. "Therefore, it is important for us to continue to be open and share our visions and achievements at events like this."
