sion have thousands of joint installations for schools and other surveillance projects around the world, and they are a member of the Arecont Vision Technology Partner Program. Their VMS has been tested in the Arecont Vision MegaLab, and has been cer- tified for continued integration.
The five schools use an array of cameras throughout the district. The multi-sensor, panoramic 180-degree SurroundVideo and adjustable-view SurroundVideo Omni series provide coverage of large areas such as caf- eterias, gyms and parking lots.
Arecont Vision MicroDome G2 se- ries cameras were used for interior areas such as for coverage of hallways and doorways. MegaView 2 series cameras equipped with STELLAR (Spatio Temporal Low Light Ar- chitecture) technology were implemented for day and night outdoor coverage.
Made in the U.S.A.
Arecont Vision cameras used by the project are hardened against potential cybersecurity attacks, and cannot be repurposed for mali- cious purposes, giving the schools an added level of security protection.
The cameras are monitored locally and remotely by the schools, using the Exacq software. Each school’s administration has access to the cameras monitoring their indi- vidual campus, allowing for real-time moni- toring throughout the day. Video can be accessed remotely, with playback from any camera using district laptops and tablets.
“Our company is satisfied and the cus- tomer is pleased with the images obtained by this camera system,” Melnyk said. “Every- thing fits; the accessories and mounts. That all comes into play because a lot of times you can be sent equipment with wrong accesso- ries and other things that don’t fit, extending the installation process longer than it needs to be. This project and
installation went very
smoothly.”
Jeff N. Whitney is the vice president of marketing at Arecont Vision.
