What’s News in Our world…

Integration not simple, but beneficial

Commercial environments are no longer looking for individual security solutions. Today they want a package that offers all the aspects of security they need. Part of the reason for this move is cost based – it’s supposedly cheaper and more convenient to get it all from one supplier. Another reason is the need for integrated solutions that talk to each other for easier management and improved security.

ProDiS (Pty) Ltd is a leading value-added distributor offering tailored, supported solutions based on Industrial IP Surveillance and Hemispheric and Decentralized Technology. Offering supporting products to complete a turnkey solution, from: storage, optical, mobility, automation, analytics, networking equipment to full Integrated Video Management Systems.

Reliable communications means reliable security
It is a common belief in large sections of South African society that living in residential estates or closed communities greatly enhances security levels and contributes to a more open and free lifestyle. Due to consistently high levels of crime and attacks on residential properties, people have gradually bought into communal living and, quite understandably, believe that the safety in numbers approach is the best way forward.

While there is a valid argument for this approach, one needs to bear in mind that as security barriers are introduced, the ability of criminal elements to overcome these is also evolving. Most reputable security companies offer a multi-level solution focused on back-up and redundancy. This takes various forms and includes the human element as well as a number of technology layers.

One camera, One job description

Despite the exciting features of today’s video surveillance cameras, poor solution design and poor camera placement compromises the end result and renders most cameras of little or no security value. This ultimately results in a camera-system that may fail to solve security challenges on a site.

There is a clear lack of risk-analysis skills and the ability to design a solution that offers to maximise security value. What clients need today is a detailed site audit and a resulting solution that solves security challenges and enhances the client’s awareness of their security environment

Order Now • Price Increases Around the Corner

For the first time in 15 years of MOBOTIX‘ history, Mobotix are forced to increase their list prices.

The need for a small price adjustment results in large part from:

• The significantly enhanced feature set of our camera platform. The new camera firmware for instance supports thermal radiometry and includes MxAnalytics which now also features behavioural event detection.

• The increasingly powerful camera components of the 6MP series, in particular the new high-grade lenses, which we now use as a standard to ensure the outstanding image quality even under low light conditions.

Contact Prodis today to get your existing order finalized or if you have any queries in regards to new orders.

If you still want to take advantage of the current pricing, we recommend placing your orders by 10 March 2016 latest.  This will help assure your shipment will be processed before 1 April 2016.

We believe that even with the adjusted pricing structure, MOBOTIX provides you the opportunity to offer smart IP camera solutions and be competitive with regards to many projects.

Thank you for your understanding. We wish you continued success with innovative MOBOTIX solutions!

Competitive without Compromise

The new indoor cameras are especially designed to be very competitive and at the same time supporting all MOBOTIX features and functionalities including the new 6MP Moonlight technology.

Due to short distances in indoor environments the new indoor camera line uses hemispheric technology to achieve 360° view without any blind spots. However, additional lens options are available for a complete room coverage or directed views.

All indoor cameras are available with optional audio package including microphone and loudspeaker for two-way-audio. Also included is the MOBOTIX Video Analysis software for objects or people statistics, heat map reporting and behavioral events without any extra costs, which is perfect for indoor locations like retail stores, hotels and restaurants, museums, health care, universities and schools. An optional expansion board can be plugged on the backside of the camera to realize additional IO and alarm functions.

Prodis (Pty) Ltd is a proud supplier of the Mobotix Indoor camera range, feel free to visit our website or contact us for more information: http://www.prodis.co.za/surveilance/

Are Integrated Security Solutions the answer to saver Cities & Businesses?

Surveillance cameras have become an integral component of any comprehensive security solution and are particularly applicable in city and central business district (CBD) scenarios where crime tends to be a more common occurrence. However, simply having cameras in place is not sufficient to either deter crime or catch the perpetrators after the fact.
As businesses grow, so do security needs. One location area may quickly evolve into a complex of buildings, workplaces, production sites and activities. Such expansion calls for regular and ongoing assessments of security risks and safety challenges.These structural and environmental changes may pose challenges for access control; monitoring movements of employees, visitors and contractors; defining boundaries for facilities and grounds; standardizing procedures and decision-making processes; and prioritizing resource allocations.

A fully integrated system is the ideal, but such a system begins by having the right security at every level of need. To achieve a fully integrated security system, consider these four primary levels of access management and control:
– Level 1 – Mechanical Access
– Level 2 – Electronic Access Control and Key Management
– Level 3 – Networked Access Control
– Level 4 – Facility Integration

At PRODIS we focus on offering tailored, supported solutions based on Industrial IP Surveillance and Hemispheric and Decentralized Technology. Offering supporting products to complete a turnkey solution, from: storage, optical, mobility, automation, analytics, networking equipment to full Integrated Video Management Systems.

What you should know about Video Management Software

Video Management Software (VMS) is sometimes referred to as NVR (Network Video Recorder) software. No matter what you call it, this software is primarily used to control and record video from IP cameras.

Since different Video Management Software supports different IP cameras, it is very important to select the video management software (VMS) before selecting your cameras. This allows you to select from the list of cameras supported by this software. Video management software provides three major functions:

1) Real-time video viewing
2) Recording Video
3) Automated notification of alarm conditions

Real time video viewing is usually used for catching shop lifters and other events that can be watched by security guards. It’s difficult to keep attention on many different video feeds so they only watch a few cameras at a time. In most applications the video is recorded and then reviewed after an incident occurs. The latest security systems use video analytics to notify the security person about an alarm condition.

Our mission is to develop, sell, and support innovative and advanced releases of Video Management Software, the most secure operating systems on the planet.
