Qognify and Bosch Expand Cooperation to Deliver a New Level of Interoperable Solutions

PEARL RIVER, New York, July 10, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

The integration provides centralized control and management through Situator and VisionHub, including advanced video management capabilities, network optimization

and video analytics support.    

Qognify, the leader in big data solutions for physical security and operations, today announced that it has expanded the integration of Bosch network video security cameras and Qognify's Situator and VisionHub, providing customers unique advanced technology and business benefits. This best-of-breed solution creates centralized management for the entire platform with direct integration of Bosch cameras to Situator (Situation Management/PSIM) and VisionHub (Video Management System).

The integration enhances security management and operational benefits by leveraging situation management, video and visualization capabilities: 

        
        - Centralized control and management through Situator- direct integration between
          Bosch's network video security cameras and Situator
          [https://www.qognify.com/situation-management-psim/?utm_source=newswire+&utm_medium=press_realease&utm_campaign=Bosch ]
          . The integration enables PTZ and PTZ-like control 
          for moving and fixed cameras, automatic triggering of processes when predefined
          incidents occur based on pre-defined alarm rules using camera built-in video 
          analytics, playback via local camera storage and camera tampering detection.
        - Advanced video management capabilities via Qognify VisionHub, including:   
             - Dewarping - the advanced integration of Bosch's FLEXIDOME IP panoramic 7000 
             camera and Qognify's VMS
             [https://www.qognify.com/video-management-system/?utm_source=newswire+&utm_medium=press_realease&utm_campaign=Bosch ]
             , eliminates the fish eye lens distortion, 
             enabling 360degree(s) of view, without blind spots, with an undistorted overview
             image. Additionally, the PTZ-like control of the video, lets customers digitally
             pan-tilt-zoom to focus on details without losing the bigger picture. This advance
             support of dewarping means empowering the benefit from wide coverage using a
             single device, while having a 'normal' view of an otherwise distorted or reversed
             image. 
             Qognify records the original camera stream and de-warps the video for viewing
             purposes, enabling each operator a unique view.
             - Reduced storage and network bandwidth with VisionHub - Bosch Intelligent Dynamic
             Noise Reduction, a feature that optimizes storage capacity and reduces network
             strain by using bandwidth only when needed. By intelligently distinguishing
             between noise and relevant information Intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction reduces
             the camera's bitrate by up to 50% substantially contributing to a lower Total Cost
             of Ownership (TCO).
             - Network optimization - overcoming network overload during working hours by
             automated, scheduled transfer from the camera onboard storage to the center.
             - Zero-loss-of-data - automatic filling of missing recording data on the SVR by
             restoring missing video from the camera onboard storage.
             - Video Analytics at the Edge - Qognify's VisionHub integrates with Bosch's
             Essential Video Analytics or Intelligent Video Analytics which runs on the camera.
             This enables delivering of video analytics alarms based on pre-definable alarm
             rules from the camera to VisionHub and Situator. In addition, the integration
             supports the Qognify video analytics suite running centrally on the recorder,
             combining Bosch built-in (edge) video analytics with Qognify's server-based video
             analytics
             [https://www.qognify.com/video-analytics/?utm_source=newswire+&utm_medium=press_realease&utm_campaign=Bosch ]
             , offering customers maximum flexibility when designing 
             a video analytics solution.
