Mirasys Carbon Brings Latest Intelligence to CCTV Video Management
Mirasys Carbon Video Management System offers state-of-the-art intelligence in a highly scalable solution

IFSEC, Birmingham, UK - May 10, 2010 - Mirasys Ltd, a provider of open platform digital CCTV and video surveillance solutions, today launched its Carbon Video Management System (VMS), the next generation answer to demanding video surveillance. Carbon brings a new level of scalability, intelligence and performance to video surveillance by employing advanced algorithms that filter out non-relevant feeds and trigger real-time response alarms to critical incidents.

With virtually limitless scaling from a single-site to wide-area surveillance, the Carbon VMS will support thousands of recorders and hundred of thousands of cameras in a single system with easy management of user credentials. By supporting a broad range of IP and analogue cameras, it enables fast and efficient video presentation on video walls and large numbers of monitors in Command & Control Centres, Alarm Receiving Centres and Remote Video Monitoring Centres. Carbon utilises the intelligence offered via the Mirasys Open Video Analytics Platform, enabling easy integration of practically any analytics function compatible with the platform. Mirasys Carbon includes a comprehensive Metadata Database to store the results of video analytics for data mining and retrieval at a later date.

The Carbon VMS is compatible with all types of Mirasys recorders, including the new Carbon-class NVRs, the fastest recorders worldwide supporting up to 64 megapixel cameras per recorder with unlimited local or remote storage for image archiving. Carbon is also compatible with the Mirasys Gateway interface that allows other systems and devices to be integrated with the VMS.

"Mirasys Carbon VMS offers the ideal solution for high-input surveillance systems such as those used in the protection of critical infrastructure, law enforcement, city surveillance and crisis management, as well as for video surveillance applications in retail chains, large logistics centres, and other global enterprises. This intelligent system integrates all of the flexible solutions Mirasys provides and supports, making it highly scalable and efficient to best suit our customers' needs," explained Jukka Riivari, chief executive of Mirasys.

The Mirasys Carbon VMS is a significant step towards new service-oriented deployments. That is, Carbon facilitates new business opportunities in that it contains all of the necessary tools required for centralised video surveillance services offered by Remote Video Response Centres and Alarm Receiving Centres in one integrated system.

Mirasys Carbon video management system will be available in stages from Q2 and Q3 2010. It will be showcased at IFSEC.
