-
Compression file sizes for either
near DVD quality with real-time recording depending on
the manufacturer still approach an unaffordable, undeployable,
3 TB to 7 TB or more, for the recording of 16 video feeds
at low resolutions (320 x 240, 640 x 480), making real-time
recording unaffordable from a storage perspective.
-
To lower storage costs, most manufacturers
still rely on the use of mechanical and linear storage
DAT or AIT tape machines, or compromise on the recorded
video quality and frame capture rate. These automated
tape jukeboxes, while lower in cost than immediate access
RAID hard drive arrays require continual maintenance
and supervision and do not offer instantaneous playback
or access to recorded data.
-
Huge bandwidths needed for live video
viewing, either on-site or remotely, limit the possibilities
of remote surveillance and live PTZ camera control.
-
The use of PC based platforms with
huge CPU overhead adds to the instability of these recording
platforms, as most recorders rely on a combination
of hardware and software digitization.
The Solution:
DigaNET™ Home and business Digital Video/Audio Recorders.
DigaNET™ HBV records
16 video and audio feeds at near DVD 704 x 480 quality
in real-time with fully synchronized audio for
14 days very affordably on only 600 GB ,
using standard EIDE hard drives.
The system only requires
1.2 TB of internal to the recorder hard drive storage
for 28 days, recording "continuously" all
video and audio inputs. There is no need for an external
RAID hard drive storage array or mechanical DAT or AIT
automated tape jukebox storage system. Furthermore, each
recorder may be outfitted with its own hard drive configuration,,
therefore distributing entirely the recorded video
among the recorders or sites .
No need for specialized and expensive centralized
video management servers and associated storage arrays.
True Low-Cost, Real-Time video and audio recording
is finally a reality, and is totally affordable. Why
limit yourself to non-real-time recording or remote surveillance.
DigaNET™ HBV opens up new opportunities for multimedia
recording and transmission, video on demand, teleconferencing,
among other media content recording.
NOTE: While storage duration
may be further increased using internal video motion
detection and analysis, many digital recorder manufacturers
typically have users calculate their storage requirements
on the total amount of video motion present
(example:
50%). While the DigaNET™ HBV may also use this feature
and therefore increase storage times for the same amount
of hard drive space as illustrated above, most manufacturers
compromise on the recoding capabilities of its products
by adopting less than 100% motion recording. Users
of DVR's are well aware of issue arising from "noisy" cameras at low light or nigh time
operation, or continually touring PTZ cameras. There
is no need to make any compromise of your security or
requirement with DigaNET™ HBV. The above remarkable
storage capability sited on such limited hard drive space
for DigaNET™ HBV is based on 100% continuous recording
of full motion
