Superficial analysis of the four characteristics of open-alarm video monitoring platform
Insiders believe that the video surveillance industry transfer from analog to digital high-definition technology. The size of the market will grow exponentially. The driving force brings in such a major change is neither IP network cameras, nor is it an IP network, but a completely safe solution based on open platform. The following describes some of the characteristics of open alarm video surveillance platform:
First of all, strong compatibility, alarm monitoring platform requires the use of standard protocols, to achieve interface and protocol standardization, and to utilize modular design. It is well known that alarms video surveillance platform is an integrated management platform consisted by a set of video surveillance systems, alarm systems, access control systems and other subsystems, its compatibility is particularly important. Based on this, Product and platform compatibility is one important manifestation of the integration concept. Alarm video monitoring platform using the system modular design, can realize arbitrary pull and plug of the front-end device driver, access control system, alarm system, intelligent analysis system, mobile phone video system, the decoder and other function module. Replace and modify any plug-ins will not affect the stable operation of the core program. What more open and flexible is that it can provide a complete secondary development environment such as the SDK and API. Support for public resources, public information provided by third-party systems in order to achieve the purpose of information sharing, resource integration, better interpreted the concept of integration.
Second, interoperability, by providing standardized interfaces, communication and interaction mechanisms, different functional modules are able to run on the system platform through standard application program interface and have equal access to interoperability, coordination. This is one of the characteristics of the alarm video monitoring platform.
Third, portability, functional software of system platform has nothing to do with the equipment, that is to say, they use uniform data format, interaction model and control mechanism. While various functional modules constitute the system can derive from different developers, the functional modules can run on the hardware platforms from different providers through consistent device interface. Alarm video surveillance platform in addition to support their own software modules, can integrate function software developed by other function module developers, to meet the user’s pursuits on transplantation of different functional systems.
Finally, the alarm monitoring platform can be complementary to each other. It can be simply understood as hardware modules constitute a system and functional software selection are not subject to the control of a single supplier. They can replace each other according to their functionality, reliability and performance requirements, without affecting the coordinated operation of the system as a whole.
The main feature of open video monitoring platform is firstly on the uniformity of the whole security monitoring system. The following technical standard should be unified, especially the uniformity of system interconnection core network information transmission, exchange and control protocol, audio and video coding and decoding technique. So the heterogeneous of system will be minimal. Thus will not cause the platform too complex because of the large number of heterogeneous problem, and not bring efficiency, safety, reliability and other aspects of the problem. In this regard, the development of uniform national standards to regulate the access platform products and equipment is imperative way.
