VMS solutions for the future
We asked Stewart McCone CEO and Founder of Videosoft Global about challenges and opportunities facing the VMS industry.
We’re amid some major technical advancements in the market, with more complex operations taking shape and getting ready for a big shift.

This evolution is redefining our abilities across diverse environments—whether on land, at sea, or in the air.

The cost performance benefits of CCTV analytics technologies
Nick Bowden , Managing Director of DIGIFORT UK explores the cost performance benefits of CCTV analytics technologies.
There are three broad types of video analytics technology available in server-based, VMS, CCTV solutions. In order of accuracy and capability, they are Neural Analytics; then Deep Learning and Artificial Intelligence (DL and AI) Analytics; and finally Binary Large Object, or BLOB.??
The most accurate and capable analytics option is neural. This is the most expensive option to deploy because the software costs more and it requires high performance hardware to run it.
The other analytics options may be less capable, but they are perfectly suitable for many CCTV applications, where budgets are tighter.?

Project Focus: Northern recycles over 10,000kg of old uniforms with Avena
Train operator, Northern , has announced that over 10,000kg of old uniforms have been recycled as part of its deal with Avena Group in 2023.
The arrangement has saved over 4,000kg (4,364kg CO2e) of carbon emissions in the last twelve months (May 2023 – April 2024) than if the same volume of material had been sent to landfill.?
That’s the equivalent of over 11,159 miles driven by an average petrol car or over 2,000kg (2,181kg) of coal being burned.
It’s also the same carbon emissions generated from charging 288,031 smartphones.
Product Focus: AI wall mount camera unveiled by Hanwha Vision
Hanwha Vision has unveiled a new 5MP AI IR wall mount camera, the TNV-C8011RW, designed for entrances, exits, retail outlets, drive-throughs and self-checkout areas.
According to the company, unlike cameras mounted high on walls which typically provide a top-down view, the TNV-C8011RW is designed to be installed at eye level, so clear views of faces are possible, even when individuals are wearing hats or using umbrellas.
A panoramic lens provides a nearly 180-degree field of view, with an adjustable tilt lens of 土25 degrees, resulting in no blind spots.
Meanwhile a 5MP resolution captures all the detail required to identify persons of interest – enhancing security and customer experience.
