IP-based video security and surveillance offers outstanding performance, features and flexibility when compared with analogue CCTV systems. Installation and operational costs can be dramatically reduced, so it's equally applicable to a single surveillance station with local monitoring, as a multi-camera, multi-site operation with remote monitoring. RealShot Manager V4 represents a new generation of management software; images are processed, analysed and archived in real-time, with many automated functions to reliably detect intrusions or incidents. In addition to the extensive, award-winning features of previous versions, Sony RealShot Manager V4 introduces Intelligent Object Detection (IOD) and Intelligent Motion Detection (IMD). Up to six filters can be configured and set to trigger alarms or perform a variety of other actions, such as locking doors or turning on lights. Active intelligence means crucial events aren't missed - for example, a suspicious package being left unattended or movement outside of expected patterns. And when an alarm is triggered, an on-screen box appears around the suspicious object or person - making it immediately obvious what has caused the alert situation. These new features have the added bonus of minimising false alarms conventionally triggered by simple repetitive movements. RealShot Manager V4 features an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI), enabling simple and logical control over advanced features such as: Customised Graphical Site Layouts, "Hot Spot" and Dual Monitoring capability, Simultaneous Multi-Camera Playback and Rapid Playback following alarm trigger. When combined with the latest range of intelligent Sony surveillance cameras and storage devices, your network will offer state-of-the-art proactive performance.
