TimeSight(TM) Systems Unveils Version 2.2 of its VLM Solutions with Enhanced Motion Analytics to Increase Protection While Reducing Storage Costs

Company presents latest intelligent networked video recorders with Motion Optimized Recording (MORe) to panel of experts at ISC West New Product Showcase

LAS VEGAS, March 31 /PRNewswire/ -- TimeSight(TM) Systems, the industry leader in Video Lifecycle Management (VLM), today announced the availability of its V2.2 intelligent networked video recorders (NVRs). The company is unveiling this industry-changing technology that directly addresses the issue of rising storage costs associated with escalating camera counts, increasing resolution, and longer retention requirements of video surveillance data, at ISC West, April 1-3, Las Vegas Sands Expo and Convention Center in both the New Product Showcase and its booth #8054.

The significance and advanced capabilities of the TimeSight platform have been recently demonstrated at customers large and small who have deployed megapixel IP cameras and the TimeSight intelligent NVR with Motion Optimized Recording (MORe) to protect people and property while actually reducing video surveillance storage costs. Representatives from TimeSight customers will be available at ISC West to discuss how the TimeSight solution enables them to store high quality images for months and provide details on how the solution paid for itself in less than 180 days by quickly resolving multiple security incidents.

"The TimeSight solution played a significant role in helping us solve two security incidents, and in both cases the video evidence ultimately led to the arrest of the perpetrators of the crimes," said Darrell Wells, owner of Certified Towing. "By using TimeSight's video software, it was easy to research specific times and camera angles. The advanced video lifecycle management technology also gave us the ability to review three months of archived digital video files with the resolution required to give us visual clarity. By reducing the size and cost of storing our video data, Certified Towing has increased the return on investment of our video surveillance operations."

TimeSight V 2.2 makes high-resolution video surveillance an effective and affordable security tool by dramatically improving the quality and quantity of valuable video data without sacrificing retention or being forced to store only motion-oriented events, which can leave security gaps. The use of VLM technology makes it possible to continually reduce the size of stored video over time, saving up to 90 percent of the storage normally required. With the addition of TimeSight Systems' MORe capabilities, further intelligence is applied to allow the capture and storage of all video by storing the 'non-motion' video at highly compressed footprints and much lower frame rates than motion-oriented video, resulting in massive storage savings while providing 100 percent video coverage versus other 'record on motion' techniques which completely ignore these periods and leave gaps in security visibility.

"The ability to remove cost barriers to storing all actionable video, without discarding that which the system thinks may not have material motion events, is critical to eliminating risks such as those from 'slip and fall' claims which frequently require proving definitively that nothing harmful happened," said Charles Foley, chairman and CEO, TimeSight Systems. "TimeSight closes these security gaps, effectively rendering 'record on motion' techniques risky and obsolete. TimeSight Systems continues to evolve its VLM platform with increased price/performance and protection while significantly reducing system payback time to often less than a year, as demonstrated by our customers."

In addition to these VLM and motion detection advancements, TimeSight V2.2 extends pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camera support and offers enhanced price performance with increased camera support per NVR appliance, further reducing cost in both acquisition and on-going operational costs. TimeSight V2.2 NVRs also offer intelligent, high speed search by motion, giving users the ability to search through only the 'motion events of interest' for fast and accurate detection, location and reviewing of critical, quality video data.

TimeSight Version V2.2 will be available for new shipments and as a downloadable upgrade for existing users under a valid support contract. For more information or pricing details, please contact TimeSight Systems at 856-206-9739 or an authorized TimeSight reseller.
