Angelica. We haven't met you before, right. Yeah. Angelique joined in January. She just graduated from NYU with a degree Master's Degree in Business Journalism. So she's doing extensive amount of business journalist reporting for ipvm. She's mainly here just to listen for now.
Because we don't plan to do any business reporting on this more of a product side. I wanted to get a little bit more experience on various calls that we do with with various companies.
Welcome.
I will share the presentation though.
Other one question. Just a general question. So is act as a bit changing? It's sort of like philosophy about how it releases things. Because, you know, it seems like Eric, you mentioned email, most of the things already been announced. So is that is that more of a shift? Is that or is that just for this cycle? Or How's X is thinking about when to release from because the old days used to be the first day of the show or the day before the show? So just curious at a high level about the thought process there?
No, yeah, I think I mean, nothing has changed. I mean, the normal way is that we announced the products when we start launching them, that's when we put them up on our web so on, but of course for ISC West since it is a big event, we pre announced some things that will be launched slightly after as well. But of course, we've also recently launched some some products and those will be shown at ISC West for the first time, perhaps, and that's why we also put them into that scope. So we we have an external announcement. We have external launch, and we can show that trade short when it's externally announced. And that could be prior to the launch. And it has always been
good.
So let's start and as usual, that see.
All information during this presentation is under embargo until officially announced by accessing and some of the products is already announced. But any new information you need to keep it Sure.
And then Megan Yep. Hello everyone. My name is Michael heading up product management inside new business. So I'm taking care of access control and audio today and I think we have met maybe not last year but the year.
Okay, great. So let's start with access control.
I think bring it up all of it. Yeah. So it's basically what we are. We have launched recently. So our new a 1610. And a 12 series of network door controls basically a more clear differentiation. compared to our previous offering. We have a two door solution and a one door solution at the edge and the new two door solution is then capable of having four readers and that by releasing some more aisles and so on, and that's really out of the box. It's for both indoor as well as outdoor mounting.
And then we have the new 812 series, one door controller which has half of the capabilities but a very compact design. Sorry, to clarify this has already been announced or is it something else because I knew there was new controllers, like a month or two ago. Just want to make sure I'm Yeah, we have we have talked about this before, but it's quite recent. So we thought we will show it at ICMS. So that's why we bring it up here. Right yeah. No objection, the one thing so we're giving the post out sort of the entry entry manager per second. So the way we think we understand it, and I just want to hear your feedback. So So entry matters is being discontinued and then sort of the replacement and is to go to ACS by the way are you calling it ACS or active conversation? How do you how do you refer to it now that it's obviously more than cameras?
I mean, ACs have a framework of a lot of additional is access control. So I, I view it from that perspective. That's it's a new capability in ICS, where you can add access control as well. Right. So the only thing we're looking at here is that the access entry manager was free, but it only did access and it didn't integrate with video or any other systems that actually provide is Do we understand that correctly? That is correctly understood. So a 1001 was a standalone system, mostly for kind of small systems up to maybe 10 doors or so. And that's what why we have that built in Energy Manager to manage this small system basically. So from that perspective, you can say that what we've built into ACS is the slightly differentiated from the perspective it can be a much larger system than you could do with entry manager. So is it fair to say that basically, access control inside of ACS is bigger and better than access entry manager? I think that's a fair statement. And I think it's also about the seamless integration with video, right? So you really can, you don't have to differ between how you manage video and access. Obviously, there's much more of an emphasis you know, now in 2023, about sort of integrating or unifying video and access I think that's completely understandable.
That the downside or at least basically trade offs are is you now I know that a 1001. One, you get a complimentary license, I believe, but if I buy an H, well, 14, I need to buy a license for ACS for the door and that's $79 USD. Is that correct? I just want to make sure we understand the basics correctly.
I have to check that with Eric actually, I don't have that doubt in my head that we still will put the license in in the box as we have done previously for a 1001 email that was sent to Rhodes and myself so that Yeah, to make sure we understand that correctly if there's a license costs.
Okay, I need to bring that back. So So I give you an accurate answer is it's I think it's important for the licensing model. Got it. And then so the other thing was x entry manager was serverless. Right? Previously, you didn't need to basically set up any other box it was sort of embedded within the controller itself. But with ACS, you'd have to set up a server is that that's correct. I mean, I think we exchanged messages with with Eric and the team about this. Yeah, that's correct. So so it's been a while and that was part of that Sir Mark and say that was a management client that really manage the whole system there. Yes. Okay. All right. That's good. Yeah, I think we're on the same.
Yep. And I think another thing worthwhile mentioning in this slide, is that a 16 to replacing the external one, right? And we also increase the capabilities a little bit we add a world for enhanced security and we can handle three times more credentials that we have currently in the 10 in the 1601. And this is what's being used for the for the genatech. Program, correct? Correct. It comes on actually on.
Schneider so just to recap on the genetic sir. Yeah. Okay. Good, good. I think kick go to the next slide.
Yeah, I don't know if we need to dig it. I think here you have a more clear picture of their variants and I guess we will share this presentation, Eric or how does it work? We reach out this material. Okay. Okay. I think we have said and done more or less everything now barebone backgrounds I might be good to emphasize as well. On the those are the 816 10 as well as the 1210 for more of a cabinet mount as you can see in the in the folder on that controller kit that's basically is that so it's it's 16 doors total it's basically 4444 In terms of the four slots, depending on what you put if you put in a too intense for them then you have four doors, right. So yeah.
Got it.
Good, good. Good. Next time next place. Yeah, I think we have you have had a specific session right on. We had a call we went over this. Yeah, I think I think we're in good shape on this part. Yeah. And then when you get the fundamentals of what it actually means from from how it integrates with the genatech cloud link so yeah, yeah, good afternoon. I think we can we continue that was it for access control center and I would like to say something about audio also.
So once we will, Phil is the Audio Manager sound that's that's a cloud software solving. The problem for customers having many sites in larger organizations and especially in retail environments, where you would like to have keep track on what kind of content you're playing, that you're playing the right content and, and the right volume levels and so on. So So today, I think the challenge in this kind of distributed environments for audio is really that you don't know if the system are working or not. So we also have in this software management system so you can monitor how all our sites behave and the content spreading the normally dominant with USB flash drives or streamed over third party streaming boxes, where you can easily disconnect an audio cable and plug in your phone instead, which might end up being some legal challenges. If you can't control your content in your retail chains. So this is a new service. We have been piloting that for a while, but now during q2 We will we will launch that as a commercial service.
subscription to it or is it just is included or I did it's actually the you can get the basic version for free. And but then if you would like to have some more advanced scheduling use cases, there will be a subscription model for that as well.
Interesting, but no, it's Is this like, because I'm just curious, generally like what does X is charges subscription for it. Seems like most everything is perpetual licenses are hardware sales. Am I wrong about that? Or?
That's that's the current but we have launched one service already, haven't we on this storyboard for its launch right.
So but yes, so it will, but it will be if we go to the next slide. So this is how it works, actually.
That I mean on your local sites, we are building small edge systems and the edge systems that's part of what the firmware can manage in each of the audio devices already today. And each of these edge sites can be done in quite large up to 200 speakers and then you can monitor and manage all those sites from this new Audio Manager center software.
And that means that you can get access to ensure the individual edge controllers and you can monitor the health of the system you can receive notifications if something is wrong with the system. And you can even make shallow changes to the system and troubleshoot the systems remotely.
So in a standard offering, you can do all this basic stuff and then in what we call a premium offering then we will offer a new annual subscription model and model and that's mainly for this more advanced multi site scheduling and automatic content distribution use cases which will save a considerable time compared to managing these individual sites for every single case, right.
So that's that's the beauty of this.
Okay.
Then finally we have launched earlier this year, I don't know if you have had the chance yet to get your hands on it the accuracy 1610 the network Sound Projector, which is a new, robust outdoor speaker for deterrence and voice messaging.
And I think it's really a new version. You have the horn speaker today, right? If you would like to have the highest sound pressure but if you would like something to look a little bit more discreet and nice in design, and you really care about the sound quality. I think this is an alternative. It's also very robust with IQ 10 rating and IP 66. Have you got your chance to look at the data? We haven't we haven't tested much. We haven't really I don't think we tested much of anything on the audio side. We've done some intercoms and on the horn yeah okay.
What do you call it a Sound Projector? Is that that to differentiate it from the horn or the speaker? Or what's a Sound Projector? Is that trying to emphasize that IT projects or what's the thing? Well, it's it's a slightly different spread Angel. Compared to the to the horn speaker. So but it's a good question. Why don't we call it the Sound Projector? A little bit more directed? is maybe my best answer for now.
Okay, marketing.
Is the Sound Projector supposed to be better audio quality than the horn or just a different factor or I think yes, the sound quality is better, I think standard we have. It's not like it's not assigned to to it's optimized for voice. But if you play audio in a home speaker, it sounds maybe not horrible, but it's not fantastic. Good. I think you get the data to good audio also for music played in the speaker.
But that's not the primary use case is still about the terrorists and voice messaging. That's the primary use case but if you would like to play some audio, I mean the quality is good. Got it
here you have everything except for the coverage of the C 1310 Regarding I mean the wide coverage is 130 degrees for the 16th turn and while we're speaking with us I can I can compare it with the horn today what it is biggest, biggest but I think the biggest changes here is that at cost of sound pressure you can say 106 decibel Max SPL is that a 121? Right? But so that you get a much more natural sound. You get vandal proof, and at least what I believe is a quite nice looking design. Right. Have you have you heard from customers that there's there's been vandal issues with the horns or how common or a common is that? No, not really because normally the horns are put up in a quite tight position but but this speaker you can you can naturally put it in a in a lower position where it gets more exposed for Vandalia we say they're prone to bees and birds nests. At least over here.
I've cleaned bees out of horns multiple times. My career
cool.
Okay, thank you. That was that was my five cells.
Great, thank you.
Yes, hi, my name is Remy and I'm the product manager for the recording solutions. I think I met John a few years ago. A couple of slides but not the rest of the team.
Are you going to click Eric or should I kick myself?
Okay, so we start with the ES 2108 that we just launched about a month ago. I think that's basically a little broader to the current es 22 await that we have in the portfolio and it's not a replacement. It's an addition to the the s 22 series and S 21 series. And what we have done with this product is try to minimize the size of course and also in terms of features to make it more attractive than yesterday to wait when it comes to the price. So it's still the same concept with a client boxes demo station server with eight axis camera station licenses that are included, and also the built in view switch for eight devices at the back of the unit. It supports class four, which is really optimized for class three devices. So you can fully populate it with eight plus three devices. And if you put some clips, clips for devices on the product, then you will have less cameras connected to it.
And it's really for the customers that don't really need all the bells and whistles from the SD to wait so the switch is not managed.
And we've simplified the backside of the unit with less buttons as well etc. And it can 100 have two terabyte of storage optimized for 10 ATP cameras so not high resolution or high power.
Someone wants wants greater storage external Can you swap the hard drive what can you do? Not in that one? Now. So if you want more storage, the recommendation would be to go for the s 2208 where we have four terabyte of storage and on that one on the s 22. It could also expand we there is one MTB where you can add an additional drive but not on this one. So this is then less expensive than 22 Aquila. Yes. Correct. It's about 25% less expensive than the s 22. It's got to do call it the MSRP is roughly
I would have done that in a couple of minutes. Just give me a second.
Just get back to that in a minute. I'm kind of curious. Like is this is this wherever the access camera companion NVR number that a number of years ago? I'm kind of curious. Is this sort of like is that in the same sort of thought process or application about the access camera companion VR used to be in the company when you go to the white box Yeah, the little box right. Now we have the s for the weight replacement of that one, which is compatible with axis companion and Axis camera station as well. It's something we have added last year, but the s 21 series and yesterday two series is really four axis camera station with the ACS licenses that included sorry, and what's the one that replaces the camera companion one the 2008 3008 3008. Yes. Yeah.
You have done a review of that one actually a couple of years ago, maybe a year ago. I don't think we ever tested it though. Right? I'm looking at here accounts like oh six. Oh you tested it with companion the last time we did companion.
I think when you tested it, it was in the end of the year. We were still in the in the beta on the previous stage boxes demo station.
So maybe that's the end of the full test. But now we are fully released. So if you want you're more than welcome to test it again. Yeah, so even we're doing like with the NVR shoot out we're going to include this in the NVR shoot out the 3008 or
good question.
I can
I mean it doesn't.
Yeah, we can. Yeah. Wait, you mean the 21 a wait are the s3 1000 3008 which is the least expensive one and the 3008. So the licenses are separate or what's the price? Does the pricing work for the 3008 then there are no licenses included in that one. Right.
Yeah, exactly. So if you want to use it into access camera station, you will need to buy licenses for the cameras that are attached. To it not for the recorder itself, but for the cameras, right.
The MSRP for the s 2108 is 1899 US dollar and yes 2208 is 2499. So that's 24% difference, by the way the 3008 is towards eight cameras and it's MSRP is like 1000 or less like why is it 21 away like more than double the price? What do I get the 20 went away that you don't get with the 3008 It's really a different concept. So this video is recorded on a so four axis camera station you will still need a server in the system with the s 21 a way to have the client and the server and the licenses included. So this one is really a standalone box. You can just run a full ACS setup with that one with the SWAT we need a server which can be really light unit doesn't have to be a big rack product can be reasonable computer so that they spend the price.
Okay, moving on to the next product, the s 1296 that we also launched a couple of weeks ago. So this one is an access camera station recording server with 96 licenses included. And we've tested and validated for 1.5 gigabit per second recording bitrate. So it's more than three times the previous load that you could add on the previous generation yesterday 148 And here we are increasing the count pretty much compared to the estimate 64 as well that we launched in q3 last year. It will go into storage volumes. So either 96 or 192 terabyte of storage, and it's pre configured with raid six from the factory.
Of course, we include the next business day on site support with that one and also keep your hard drive as to services that are included in that one.
So we did with the S 12 series you can scale from 16 channel with the S 1216 tower to 150 channels now with the SR 96.
We've bought products DS 2108 s 296 and older the other windows recorders. We have a small application that we shipped in the box, the axis recorder toolbox. So it's really a simple wizard that guides the user the first time we boot the unit to a few steps to set up the system in the right way and save some time. So the first step will be to choose the theme. So either the light theme which is the default one or the dark theme, you can select here and then you can define the computer name that is then used by the axis camera station server name, secure remote access the license portal etc. So all the services attached to access camera station will use the computer name that you can set in the first step. And then you can set the date and time settings NTP time NTP synchronization, IP settings as well. If we take this one for example, you can set either you manual IPS depending on your network topology and configuration or use DHCP server.
So just a few steps to guide the user.
And then once you're done with that you end up on the actual tool box where you can easily update either axis camera station, or the built in switch if you have it on the S 22 series. For example, you can also download it and auto update it directly here.
And then on the left side you have different links with the manual so either your online offline, you can get the user manual for the actual product you're using, which can also save some some trouble when you're in a in a basement, in the server room, etc.
So it's a small application that we ship with all the windows recorders and that we update continuously continuous development and more features will come in that was especially related to cybersecurity later this year.
Okay.
That was it for me. Any questions for the coders? No, we're good.
Thank you
and I just break in to say that we got a new licenses are shipped or not they are not shipped with a 1210 and a 1610 ACS licenses to answer your question.
Okay, okay.
Everybody sounds mind and I'll be present in the hallway chemistry. So the thermal cameras new exciting stuff the cue 1961 symmetric camera.
So once folded to 664 height and we have a limit for quite long time with L one, so the SIR will step up with aanpak eight and up to 248 degrees Fahrenheit. There's a trade degree accuracy and above that is 15%. Plus minus to the next month
so there are quite a lot of analytics you can do with this camera and if you start the video there it is a mock up but it's shows the use case there. We want to achieve
detection areas with with alarms and we'll show you the temperature measurement of each zone to the idea that primarily this is industrial usage then to see if things were overheating or a lot of industrial use cases yes.
But but there's not an intention to use this for example like perimeter applications then no
thank you shall we go to the next one. An important change for us is also that we use standard sensor median made in Europe with this one, which makes it easier to sell it around the world. This sort of the frame rate limitations like 8.3 frames or something. Yeah, so now we can have 30 FPS to learn more countries.
So typical use cases here, as you mentioned, it's different kinds of industries, like substations and city dams and whatnot, everywhere where you risk to have increased temperature and problems with that.
Go to the next one.
There also be version that is possible to mount on a PT head. We also can have a thematic Golf Tour. So you can cover quite big area and that God tour walk around and to check the temperatures
and the same guy that's a new sensor and that one
and it's run the video
so in a typical substation there are quite a lot of other pieces that if they get too hot, you will have severe trouble.
So to be notified in advance, there's a huge one
Yep, got it. Do you see that the thermal market in general is now shifting more for temperature measurement. You know, I mean, it was five or 10 years ago, it seemed like a lot of thermal was being used for sort of analytics.
But do you see that that market declining for thermal usage and switching over to conventional cameras what sort of better analytics like your own or where do you see sort of the thermal market there? So I think we're keeping the perimeter and so on. Yeah, the distances to cover with some cameras and long fences and so on the thermal cameras are really good. And you don't have to add any lighting. But of course you also see more and more coverage with with color cameras, I would say I think from a metric cameras, I think after a COVID or during COVID. The interest of measuring temperature got a lot bigger and of course we didn't jump on that one but I think it spurred a lot of interest and ideas of how you could use temperature measurements for for these types of purposes that we see here. So So I think this is kind of an add on use case where we think there is a big potential.
Got it. Okay. And then what do you think makes the thermometric camera more accurate or less accurate? Presumably, there's some sort of distinctions. Is there anything you said like hey, this is why these cameras are more accurate than our previous generation.
It's a calibration during production. Yeah, it's also the environment that you have in the scene because I think it's a big difference if you're using it kind of outdoors or indoors in a controlled environment. So but for these cameras here, we're not talking about percentages of degrees or something like that. It's more of the industrial application. So we'll have like plus minus five degrees in accuracy, but well enough to cover for the use cases that we're targeting. Right right. Not not having a fever. I got it. Oh, no, no, absolutely not.
We know why there's dried up.
Moving over to six domes.
There's a new generation of the Q 36 series. It's now the new one here, just about the same size as the q 35. And it shares the same sensor as well. So it's got the same really extraordinary light sensitivity like we have in the Q five but with a pan tilt and rotate and zoom remotely.
Because the main benefit when when installing can be a really really fast fun tune and adjust afterwards or change when something is in the interior is changing or something on the building side is changing or anything like that. Is that that mechanical industrial design is that different from the 235 I don't I don't know again, sorry. Just just
the exterior design is very similar, but the internal in terms of the the parts to reveal the the inputs and whatnot.
I think we have a lot of the same inputs in that product. But of course the big difference is that it's Yeah, with the pan tilt, rotate zoom functionality that we have a product of course that's a different mechanical structure.
Got it okay.
We also have recently launched stainless steel version of the Q 35 For corrosive environments. Apart from that it has the same type of it's basically the same q 35 features that we have in the in the rest of the series. It's also DME is certified for marine environments. So it goes great on ships from other like industrial use and so on.
Yep.
Then this is a friend coming back.
We had a product like this a while back had to discontinue that and now we're launching a new generation of it. So it's with a podcast technology as we call it, to enable cameras without IO and audio with video and audio and it will turn up in the user interface as the camera has it.
There is also version code with the with a built in microphone and external housing as well
as the mic in the ring in that photo.
Yeah, so So the microphone is in this little box there. Okay.
And then it's basically a network microphone two microphones, yeah, even to
modern transportation cameras. The good ol F series has been with us since 2014.
And now it's got its replacement in place finally. So we have a four port version and a single port version.
The connectors are different from before. So you can see in the image as well. And there are also two barebone versions.
The cables are are now possible to have up to 90 feet not defeated 98 feet long cables. So it's a substantial increase in distance between the sensor unit and the main unit got and what was the what was the previous length maximum? The maximum was 15 meters and will fall one guy are actually actually that was for the f8 series. The series was 12 meters cables and those cables were hardwired into the sensor unit. So if something happens to the sensor, you will have to pull out the cable all the way from the vehicle or wherever you mounted it. Now it's possible to just relax that connection and change the sensor if anything would happen, which it hardly ever does. But still.
Yeah.
And then uncompressed then from the sensor to the main unit. Yes. So the sensor is just a sensor and serializer and then all the rest of the camera is in the main unit. So it's it's not like analog camera with with the encoder or something like that, but it's a pure IP solution.
Got it? And we have five sensor units with that one. So standard legacy and the image and then a fisheye, which is I think it's 183 degrees, field of view and very focal, then an angled pinhole and a mini dome with a built in IR and that's a new product for this series. We haven't heard that before.
The pinhole web the mini dome sensor, yes made a dome with IR.
With IR you have a picture of that.
Not sure. Actually, let's see on the website already Yeah, that's good enough to see the different kinds of ports. One difference between this one and the old one. If you slip again, I think we get to the end, bring it all on.
So it's mainly based on the Arctic's seven and the connectors are fakra and SMA so it's factory connectors in the main unit. Same type of connectors that you find in in your car. The SMA is the what you have in Wi Fi antennas, for example, but these are then IP 6687 the SMA connector, the single channel camera 108 FPS in seven one P can continue with the rest there was an accelerometer and dashboard application. So you can can read out extremely to data and gyro data from the sensor and if you have really good eyesight you can see that the the power connector was just just on the side of the peewee connector. There is an extra pin for that and it's for the ignition of the car, for example. So if you connect that to your car and you shut off the engine, then you have a possibility to set the timer. So either you will keep the surveillance of the vehicle for like half an hour before it shuts down. Or you do it immediately but then in a nice way. Got it it's to simplify the to use this in cars
and on the audio part there is also a step up with digital audio digital microphone inputs.
Got it? 180 frames per second is that because it was like included or is that you do see a demand for Andre frame frames per second. Just curious what you're seeing on frame rate interest Yeah, it's for more type industrial applications where you previously you would buy a machine vision camera or something like that for industry use.
But with this camera, which is then a lot less expensive, and sold quite a lot of those use cases with it.
So the previous app series what was the max framerate 60 FPS? Yeah but those a triple and and then what do you say on 720 P does that mean 720 P is the is the max or can you do lower frame rates and higher resolutions?
That's it 100 FPS is only available in 720 p resolution. Then you'll get 60 FPS if you run it in 1080 Right. So what's the max resolution is 10 ADP or four mags or what's the max resolution on the F 91.
For now it's 10 HP. Hey, what do you what are you mean for now, like what we have what we have launched now? It is and up on top there you see it's two products on top of each other and the one on top is the bare bone.
So there is one one bare bone with all the full feature functionality. And then there's one barebone with only the camera functionality. And that's if you want to build it into something else like ATM machine or a ticket machine or kiosk of some kind. They could choose to do that only by the PCs and they have the limitation right now and the resolution is the sensor side. All the sensor modules are tentative Yes, yes, correct. Got it. Okay, but you're saying but but but the main unit could basically in the Future Connect to sensors of higher resolution antennae that we'll see in the future.
Got it. Okay.
Better even bored me over this sort of the F for 105 The dome sensor thing, but that dome like it's hard because it's on the internet but the dome looks gigantic, but it could just be the image and I'm confused.
That camera the diameter of that camera is the same as our transportation cameras. The P 39 series, okay. So the idea is that you can use either this modular system or you can use the P 39 cameras. They will fit it's a small unit. I think it's 10 and a half centimeters wide. But that is an inch majority inches or something or two. Yeah.
Okay.
I'm speaking on transportation cameras. There is a new one coming up.
This time dedicated for buses. So it's an M 39 of five previously had the P 39 Or five but that was for buses and train use a rolling stock. This is a camera just for buses or other vehicles some but not rolling stock. What makes something rolling stock compliant then you have high requirements on some materials when it comes to to smoke, creation of smoke if it gets too hot, for example, and there are tougher EMC standards as well.
Got it okay. And so this is one lower price than the other one presumably since it's not rolling stock compliant. Correct.
Then move on to E X products, though of something that I think is really exciting it's not a stainless steel camera, but it's still ie X Zone Two.
And it's a dedicated zone to the camera.
So it's the one that roads did the discussion on. I think we talked about a month ago, going to make sure it's just the same thing. So we're now I think you had a discussion with Yeah, yeah. The separate discussion on that, then you're familiar with, right? Okay. Cool. The cool thing there is that we apart from a way we also have smoke alert application in that one
you already know this. So let's move on into PTZ cameras.
So, new key 56 stereo camera, Omega XL.
All the duty good stuff. From the old series. But as you can see, this dome has a different shape than before. And the dome here is actually rotating the whole dome and a separate compartment for the IR. So it's an IR enabled p 56. Series camera.
And this illumination but what was the previous generations is that tuner meters that longer than before or the peak of six we haven't had IR before. Okay, but there is an axis camera with IR but I forgot Yeah. 6130 61 and q 63. But those are kind of bowl shaped. So there's like a bowl hanging under the camera. Whereas this looks like a traditional PTZ camera with a bubble. Got it.
So it's the same idea but in a in a different form factor. So this supposed to be more aesthetic less expensive. Why have this versus the other one.
It's less expensive reasons to start actually.
Because I think we're selling a lot of the Kulang pitsee cameras in, in America, but also certain parts of Europe whereas there is a little bit more price sensitivity in some markets in Europe or in Asia and this is a product that we see will fill that gap that we have had in our portfolio.
Got it Okay.
And do we know roughly what the price differential is like? 10% last 20% last let's decide
checking.
I'm checking the price a year it's more like 20% Difference per hour check
and so with this Okay, now it's when does the when does the IR kick in I guess at once when you lose color or or is it already? I guess I didn't get the video when I saw the video but actually, this one isn't showing the eye or it's showing the privacy masks that will adapt to the background. So maybe it's not super clear, but there are some privacy marks there. And that's actually the intention shouldn't be so clear, and more. But the thing is that it's this feature is only a cue line feature. So that's I shouldn't be there.
Okay, that's fine. It's not not a huge mistake.
But it's a very cool feature though, but put your customers differentiator. Yeah. So this peel I can also be mounted inside the cube 61 for a panoramic view, and so on. And then it's enough with a 60 watt mid span to to run both. Both products.
We have something there's quite exciting. It's a power meter. That's a feature with this camera.
So you can get measurement on the current use current power usage, and the average and the maximum so this will will, will help installers dimension the need, for example, and battery power solar panels and so on. And make it very clear what the consumption really is. So it's like literally it's gonna be in the cameras web interface, or where does one go for it?
Yes, it's a new part of the web interface in the product.
And so it's introducing this camera and then it will spread in the portfolio. Next up is the box cameras, but it's a really nice feature. Got it? So does it and if it's going to show you some sort of chart over time, because presumably over the course of 24 hours, it'll vary depending on how the camera is being used. So does it logs it over some period of time or is it just sort of instantaneous or what is it? What does it do? It's both it's both so it's both instantaneous. And also the average? Yeah, you get in the in the bottom of that screen. It's very small, but it's just like, can press out.
Yeah, yeah. Then you have five, five different choices there. 30 minutes, one hour, 24 hours, one week. Or one month Ah okay.
And that's that's an a forthcoming firmware.
This isn't hardware feature, so it's coming with the products.
God Okay, so it's only been on new cameras with certain hardware platforms. Yes, we need to have the power measurement stuff on the PCB. Got it. Okay, that's interesting. And so which which are any cameras shimmy shipping yet that have this power meter feature? This will be the first then there will be a box camera, which is this was a PTC This is a bit disease. Yeah. Got it. Okay. Yeah, so it's not it's not then firmware upgradeable for existing cameras in the field? No. There are some cameras that we have already. Launched that will be able to get through to swim. But if they have the auto so it will be selected but it will be rolled out more widely but not in the pool portfolio as of now.
Got it. And so is that going to be Is there plans included on like the axis camera selector? So there's some sort of field because otherwise, like how are people going to know like, what, which models basically supports this grouping? Yeah, we were still figuring out exactly how to communicate that but of course, that would be interesting to know. Yeah. Got it. Ethan, I'm not familiar. Any other manufacturers that have such a feature? Do you never seen it now? I like it.
It's kind of nice because I mean, depending on where the camera is, is being installed and how you use it. That will be a big difference. So this really will give you an understanding of the power consumption so you can find your system accordingly.
And speaking of power, there is a new midspan came out mid spans are normally not the most interesting parts to talk about, but this actually is it again it adds a lot of new functionality to the camera.
So if you have a PTC camera and from access you don't have or PTC outdoor camera you don't have IO or audio. And if you're if you power it with this midspan the you will have audio and power and on top of that, it also has the ability to power cycle the camera if the power would go down and the camera and with the with the quality we have the cameras don't end up in the situation that often but for cameras that are mounted in areas with a lot of thunderstorms and so on, if there is a search not to search enough to kill the camera, but if there is a thunderstruck, quite close that could cause problems for the cameras and then this will recognize that the camera is not working as it should and it will power cycle the camera automatically. So it pings the camera every 30 a second. And if it if it doesn't work even more often, but if it doesn't answer correctly, it will let the camera self with the watchdog that are inside the camera. Try to take care of the problem and if that doesn't work, it will read restart the camera. Reboot the camera in after 30 minutes.
So instead of climbing a lot of Poles after thunder struck, you could just let the camera restart itself. So it's really really nice and it also has an F SFP module for fiber. So it's a it's a very, very nice midspan to be introduced in the Q 62 cameras this summer and then it will be launched as a standalone product as an accessory as well. After that.
We have analytics. Cliff is Nicholas.
Here Yes, I'm with you. Here's clicking I don't think I had that many slides. It's probably easiest.
So my name is Nick doesn't sell. I'm product manager for analytics. So we're gonna start with Next slide.
So I mean, in a way or analytics is if you've tested it, I guess you're quite familiar with it, but it's kind of a suite of applications that initially we're focusing quite a lot on the security use case, but we are expanding and moving towards beyond security. So first out is a new scenario called cross and counting. And it has been released as a beta in from Wellington three that was raised a few weeks ago. So it's already ruled out. And you can of course, use it for pure operational efficiency use cases. We can also generate events based on amount of objects passing the line and it shouldn't really be seen as say replace replace the Texas paper calendar grid system, angled candidate typical security surveillance camera. So it's mainly one way county measuring flows of objects passing a certain line so and because I counting like this scenario is the first one out in this direction that we're adding more scenarios and features towards the candidate beyond security.
We can take the next slide.
But the way this crossline counting, is it more flexible in terms of positioning? Yeah, good. So this is what a typical, yeah, this is for a typical angled installation that I mean, we see a lot of demands on counting and a lot of customers don't want to sacrifice one dedicated camera for accounting especially top down which basically don't give you a good security angle. So this is really flexible solution to solve that together where you're initially installed for security purpose to do more in the operational efficiencies. Got it?
And, I mean, we see more and more use cases were actually no big deal is the data that leaves the camera and you want to present it and so on. So it's all about how you consume and how you pull that data from the camera signature. If you noticed on the previous page, you do have the possibility to add an overlay with the tables. So you can see how many accounts you had an automatic reset and so on but you probably want if you wanted to use it for more operational efficiency purposes. You probably want to to get that data in a different format and to present it in dashboards and so on. So we think that most customer will use the event of MQ TT to present it and build your own dashboards so you can get them very customized for your specific use cases.
So and you can also get so you expect most of your customers to implement it. themselves or use MQ TT to connect to like existing applications that do reporting or charting.
Yeah, I mean, it's hard to say but I think the enterprise customers, the bigger customers will probably build it themselves over MQ TT. So we have published guides and so on how to make it easy to do that. We are also working towards building dashboards of our own, like, pre built and so on. But then I think if you're an enterprise, enterprise customer, you probably want to customize it into your systems specifically for their needs, and so on. So I think that's where we see that the vast majority, but of course smaller business owners are on they probably want something easier and something that we can build like an end to end solution. So yeah, we didn't dashboards and so on, we'll probably see more in other gotta have the possibility. To get an API it's going to ask schedule based or whenever to kind of measure this.
Okay.
And we can take the next one. Sorry.
Should I continue to click on? Yeah, well, you can click on three to get themselves. I mean, when it comes to analytics, it's more than just the application itself. It needs to work in a whole system. So we are working a lot and adding a lot of features in site designer. So there you have the possibility to select the analytic and you can get the expected detection distances. We're also planning to add more features in this for example elimination. So you can get expect the detection distance based on the elimination when it comes to ACS scenario by AVMS is like my son genetic. We're also working on getting a better integration to make it easier. So um, so you don't need to go into the Applications web page from from from our web browser. I mean, making the full solution and also including the Device Manager extend especially to get an overview and perhaps also add dashboards and so on to make these to see the full picture and how your analytics working and getting out the date out. So this is yeah, we say definitely need to improve in all these areas. And we're working.
Yeah, taking steps on it. Got it is Device Manager extend has the installation for that simplified, because I think when it first came out it was like a dedicated server and maybe required like terminal work.
I don't own that product. I mean, I've been using it I didn't find it. That difficult to set up but I'm not an expert in the area. So if someone is in the room that maybe can explain if it's been unchanged through it or to simplify. You can just send the questions to me after this meeting and I will reply to them. That's the product manager NMX will be available we will be present at ISC West. So you could go to the booths and ask for him there and stuff. Yeah.
It was so yeah, not not not good.
So if that was just a second
pass to be perfect. So before starting this video, this is not something we are communicating at ISC West. So this slide and next slide are something that we plan to release publicly after IC west. So I mean you may have seen that tiny area is kind of the feature to solve the loitering use cases. That has been as a beta since last year, and the reason why it's in beta is that we know I mean, it is kind of challenging to track and keep correct IDs whenever especially multiple objects in the scene. So what we have been working quite heavily since then, is to to improve the tracker of analytic analytics more than just getting pure detections. You want to understand how they're moving in how long time and so on to build more use cases on top of it. So re ID is a technology that we have been working on to to kind of solve these challenges. So this is this is the technology behind the timing area so the timing areas still the feature that's called in the application, but but the way we ID works is that each object you store a feature vector. So when you get occlusions when our beta suddenly disappearing and re entering, you can compare the feature vectors is getting more robust, reliable tracker, so you can use more advanced and tougher challenges. Use cases when it comes to, for example, loitering and so on. So there's one two and three, and basically one, two and three leaves and four, five and six replaces them, then that wouldn't be loitering. But if one two and three basically stayed for a period of time it will be lawyering. Yeah. So you decide exactly that each unique object is defined a time.
So it's not that someone in the area or loitering it's specific person is loitering, right so you can distinguish them between people who are just moving through versus people who are staying. That's kind of an idea. Of course, if if it's very crowded and people look similar, I mean, it will make mistake but it will definitely be a big improvement versus a more traditional trekker gotcha videos to use. So the left side is just to compare to compare the current tracker without re ID. The right one is using radio technology. You can see that the left one is really struggling when people are moving around. So each time's the number turns red, that's a mistake from tracker. So this is just a 35/42 video. And you can see like it's making eight mistakes in this second, so even number three on right side that person leaves the room very shortly in a few seconds. You can really see how really works kind of snaps back the idea of the comparing the feature vectors. So you know that the Holy Grail obviously with re ideas to do and across cameras, but presumably you're not trying to claim across cameras. No, I mean, that's obviously the next step. So this is the first step. But of course, that's something we're looking into. But that's not for the first place not God but thinking of and saying, Maybe we should add it in the metadata that feature vectors to someone to build next thing on so on that it's definitely an interesting use case. Right? And so this is very useful also in a one camera so as you can see here, it's really useful mostly in only one camera to have this we ID because otherwise you you will not be able to track people correctly. In one view.
Yeah, yeah. I mean, I think the use case though still loiter is interesting thing. I'm sorry, not and I think obviously it's more feasible to do more caring because it's one camera one scene. But of course customers want the sort of CSI type thing like hey, there's someone walked out of an office in downtown Manhattan, re identify him basically anywhere he is in the city, which is obviously much more of a science fiction thing. But just a couple of just basic questions here. So this is gonna be available across the board for every hammer that supports x the object analytics which would require a DAW hardware that I mean, yeah, all the inside of the MLP right, but anything that has a GPU basically will support this. Yeah.
I mean, there are some, I mean, special cameras like multi sensors and so on, they will not have the performance to do it. But pretty much all single sensitive areas. Got it. And then so this is just some sort of firmware release at some point in the next n number of months. Yeah, so we're hoping to roll this out with firmware 11.5 So we're currently has to release that in three and then finally spend in June. Got it it could also be the one after of course, things gonna happen but we're hoping to do it in June but, you know, plan sometimes not always goes in and so you can plan to announce this sometime later in the spring or in June. Is that roughly the plan? I mean, we plan to push the time in our use case a lot harder when we have this in place, because then we will remove the beta tag and kind of a market is much more than we previously did. So I mean, if we roll out a lot of things in beta, but then we don't we push marketing that heavily. It's not until we removed the beta that we kind of initiate the marketing. Got it. Okay. Yeah, I mean, we'll cover there's a big there's an interesting thing. And I mean, anything to do with the ID I think is interesting to people on the analytic side.
So we will let you know when we announced it to can cover it. Yeah, we will be happy if you test it when it's available. So that's why we wanted to give you a heads up on this. And we will we will be able to show that for for selected customers at the show but it will not be externally announced. Got it. It's like the next week. Find or do you have one more? Yes.
One more. So this is also not facing west because this is kind of the next scenario that we're planning to add off to the coastline counting to kind of fill this operation efficiency use cases. So this is basically more a pure detector occupancy, kind of use case. How many objects do you see in the field of view so it doesn't really take advantage of any we ID or tracking is yes, measuring how many vehicles or how many people are using the scene and then you can create, of course, more traditional alarm based events based on the number of WebRTC they can also measure the occupancy level. So this is perfectly a smaller store where you don't want to have one dedicated camera to do in versus out to calculate occupancy is yes measuring without any offsets errors that you can build if you don't have to explain high accuracy counting in versus out, so it's perfect for those small stores or parking lots to get an idea of the the occupancy level God this is also something we're planning for from relevant note five which was in June.
Yeah, that was it for a way so next feature we are launching at ISC West is excellent Privacy Shield where we will extend with more object clauses so both vehicles and or license plates, and then of course you can still combine them with the current ones like in the scene. Where you have you and so and it also uses a bigger and better deep learning models. It's also a general improvement versus previous ones. So this is plan for element four. It is just a few weeks away, but it will be announced that is rest also.
I know it's a couple years ago now but remember that the privacy thing needs to be tested. Right? It was like VMD base and it had lots of problems. So this is way better than that from a couple years ago. Yeah. I mean, there was motion based so it was specifically for scenes where you have kind of a static environment. So to add a kind of a more limited niche using the ARB is more broad based we can use extra outdoors for much more sense.
Or even are still I mean people not moving but the the motion based version is still available as an option. If you really want everything that is moving to be masked. Got it. But in this live Privacy Shield this is for the DLP you cameras only or if for the Florida, the classified objects, we still offer the motion based for non DLP as well.
Right.
Got it.
And then when it comes to metadata, and we also planning from well no not five to add the upper and lower clothing color in the metadata stream and this is also will not be communicated at ISC West it is something we released offered after we already have the vehicle color that was released a few months ago and now we're adding human upper lower clothing color.
Got it? I'm curious what the with and the reality loitering feature this act is metadata upper lower clothing. Can you run all these things at once or at some point on the DLP cameras you've got to pick basically like this type of analytic feature versus that type of analytic feature when you run out of resources for these variants. I mean, the metadata screen in a way is using the same model. Obviously, the metadata is more sensitive, yes, basically send everything and then filter on the receiving end. A rate is using that extra standard metadata, and then applying more kind of logic and filters and so on so that you can see a difference in behavior between a way and the metadata stream. But they're built on the same deep learning model.
Acts like privacy shield is today built on a different model.
But we are definitely looking into combining them because Privacy Shield doesn't require the same FPS that AOA is doing because they always based on tracking you know the track you need to have a much much higher FPS. But for privacy shield, maybe one FPS two FPS is good enough. So then it definitely see that it could be possible to run them at the same time. So it's something we're looking into it looks quite promising.
Got
think that was no one was like So exercise license plate verifier. It's also a different model, different application. So this is currently actually running on the CPU that we're planning to the Mr. A big model that for ISC West, we are adding more countries in Latin America. So those six ones they're listed and also feature to understand what kind of current region and if it's front to rear review, so you can tag them and this is really it's a better that feature. And there are also new kits and basically successor of the old kits. So you know the kits or the application pre installed licensed together with optimized settings purely for licensed pet detection. So it's just makes it easier to get get a good performance on the licensed bedding used to kids instead of the licensed application. Got it. So in terms of performance now because we're gearing up to do a new LPR shoot out is the thing coming in May going to be better performance or what's the performance just now we're talking just US US and EU license plates and we're not going to test that in America.
But are there any sort of differences in performance with the products that have been released recently or the products from last year for example?
I think it's continuously continuously improved also when it comes to to identify more and more clients and we are in actually there is one version coming up. Next version after this coming up with also no you haven't there is there.
I don't think it is Country region and view so that's also good that does the state if the region can also be state in the US so that could possibly also be interesting for you to look at some that was new shape kids, they're they're actually you know, those cameras are are newer and better. So I think that could improve the detection. Count. The new cameras are gonna make sure we're on the right. Well we have some lumber we actually have a Q 17 Which is what we were planning on using. Is that not a good choice.
I think you should go kit if you want to do that because the kids are optimized for that. specific use case if you use the latest cameras with a kit. That's the best alternative.
It's 1700 the the actual license plate camera Yeah.
The thing is, those kids are actually they're not only optimizing the settings that are available for for you in a in a configuration page. They're also optimizing settings that are not available for for the I mean the user so so they're really optimized for the camera that we sell must be Oh, it's going to be Yeah, eventually but I think I mean the q 1700. There has been more product that we're selling with partner, third party.
But it's a good camera for the purpose. It's a few years old now and there will be a time when we will replace it. But it's a good choice as well. I would say Yeah, it's really good choice is very use light sensitive song.
But I guess it also is which also means that you can run shorter shutter speeds and so on. So it depends on if you have high speeds and if you have long distances, maybe Q 1700 inspectors to it. I think it's it's it's the better choice. But if you have shorter distances and not like high road speeds, then I think these kids are better.
Okay, actually is like you said it isn't a dog cameras. It's probably awesome. I mean adapted for have the same adaptations under the hood, I guess.
Perfect. That was the last slide on analytics.
Yes, sir. It was a multisensor panoramic first
it's an update.
Sign we have an Arctic eight and that keep on coming there.
And there are two things that are extraordinary good with this camera and it's the stitching and it's the horizon straightening.
So if we move into the next side, see the progression of how we'd be using sits the chain from the starch.
And third, in the first one, you really see the differences between the senses, of course, but on the third image to the right.
You have a really nice that showing color blending and so on. But now we'll go from that into the next slide, which is the video slide showing Budapest so it's the only River and on the other side you can see cars if you have a big screen running.
It's very hard to see like stitching and and you have a straight horizon and the cool thing here is that you can move the horizon up and down. Dependent on how you mount the camera
is a really nice feature to get a very like natural and pleasant view and on top of that says we are the eighth we also have a deep, deep learning a way more running and that of course you don't get the same kind of accuracy as you get on a single channel camera.
But it's still very useful.
When then moving over to single sensor, panoramic we can with a new one here. This one is replacing the M 50.
M 3057 or 230 58 cameras.
And again, it's certification those ones can move on
stereographic lens and sharp dome on these ones. It's features that we have had in the latest release of fisheyes but not in the in the outdoor can move on to the next one which is the indoor version shows us released version at IC West make the same thing without IR and I just missed this before it is like a different type of panoramic camera maybe as it's a so it's it's a fisheye. This design is more more discreet than the outdoor versions, but and so is there a lot is previously have had the indoor indoor only fisheyes maybe maybe I just forgot had had outdoor as well but these are basically a step up with a new generation was an image quality and that we have obligating them.
Actually we didn't have make in the name earlier. So that's why, maybe if that's what you refer to maybe the naming convention has changed a bit as well. Got it.
Yep.
That then it's stiff. It's time to get brand fantastic. So in the coming act is always upgrade. We will improve slipstream.
I saw that the the slide is reused from our internal meeting yesterday. So it's the internal marketing link there. But anyway, we have been working on the new methods to reduce the bitrate on top of what we already have in the current products. And we have learned that many uses uses IP su but only in the default configuration. So previously, we had to change a few parameters yourself to get the best savings.
But from access it was 11.3 that is out right now. I think there is a new Zipstream storage profile that you can play with one with one click. We have automatically selects the best options for you that we because then we know you're going to store this stream on disk. We try what's the one click do what is it so the one click in the camera interface is it temporary? Until all the VMSS automatically requests a storage stream.
This stream adds additional tools in the compression process.
To make the screen even smaller than before. I will say there are a number of different parameters you can set for Slipstream, but using this profile, you only need to choose the profile so you don't have to set all those parameters. That's one click, one click so this release is two things, the ease of use and the new tools that they also add.
So even if you have been using C 15 before in aggressive settings you will save even more using this storage profile. We have backed up QQ two which means in the next three months. It's already out in the farmer actually because I'm actually updating my camera right.
Now that we will have some communication on ISC West on this, but you can you can play with it if you find it.
We have backported this functionality to almost all the active portfolio so even older cameras will receive some sort of storage profile. Some of the really old hardware can't use all the tools so you get less savings, but we put in as much as we can do with the hardware that is out there. So this is a really good thing for our customers that your old cameras will be better. You can enable this profile we have in new addition to the apex API. So by only setting one parameter, all the VMAs vendors can get this stream automatically. So that's the ID we think we think this is going to be very good for especially our cloud customers that pay for storage.
With a bit more latency, that's why it says storage. Yeah, there is one type of camera or usage that shouldn't use this if you have a PTZ camera and you manually using a joystick. This profile is not good because the add the added latency is going to make tracking manual tracking difficult. Interesting. So latency, what are we talking about 50 milliseconds, 500 milliseconds, two frames?
Two frames, so 115 per second or Yeah, depends on your frame rate but two times one over 30 typically so you will notice if you are using the pan tilt joystick for all other uses, I recommend this storage profile even if you're not storing it that's numbers are really, really extraordinary. Good. Yeah. So if you compare out of the box, within default setting, you'll get a reduction of typically 50%. If you're already using Slipstream, aggressively, you might maybe only get 20% but it's still from a very very low level so got it yeah
so that was it.
Great. Yeah, doesn't what just big picture i There's obviously axes and not surprises. Doing a lot of incremental improvements across the portfolio. I'm just curious about like, you mentioned just once at the very end about cloud, I mean, is there any sort of next big thing coming or should we expect more incremental sort of improvements?
Thank you.
I think I mean, I think it's a combination of both.
Obviously, we are maintaining and continuing to develop our current platforms and then once in a while we'd come with something totally new, new product or something else totally new. But there is of course, a lot of incremental improvements as well.
I don't know if that answered your question.
Yeah, I mean, we are very happy with the platforms that is used right now. We are developing a lot of software to use all the features where we have in our right now.
Got it? Good idea. That's that's on our side. Anything for us.
We didn't cover anything from BorgWarner I don't think you're so interesting. bought one. But we will launch or announced a live video. We bought one. ISIS West we are. We are strongly considering testing and adding basically you see we're doing more reporting on x and x.
So we do plan to expand into body cameras, including casting later in the year. So it seems like body worn cameras is moving into commercial business as well. So then it might be more interesting for you. Pause right and also we're looking to expand more into the policing side as well. So I think both for trends happening. It coming into commercial and us wanting to do more for the police. Yeah.
Good, right.
So if any questions pop ups, just send me an email and I will try to answer it. Awesome. Thanks. Everyone. Take care
