Alternative Surveillance Assistant BasicOverview
The program has been created as common application for security cross platforms functioning all together with wireless and wired IP cameras, Television-cards, capture cards, power-line, and USB cameras. It has web interface with the similar appearance and functionality on the local and apart workstations. Users see MPEG-4 coded picture and have complete management of the software via network that security pc can be operated with no monitor, keyboard, and mouse attached. Program`s modular structure significantly increases reliability because all components proceed as independent software. If one component fails, other units keep on running. For instance if the `record` module freezes, `watchdog` starts again it instantly that users don`t notice anything because they are watching video through a `playback` module. The program does `repeated` recording that the `hard drive full` situation never happens. The recording can be constant or it can be started by motion, human face detection, or by schedule. The program has pre-alarm and post-alarm recording. Playing back recorded video is pretty easy and performs on the surveillance station as well as on distant workstation through Web interface. The program performs synchronized video playback for event analysis from many cameras at the same time. Also recorded information can be searched by date, time or by face detected. All recorded files can be encrypted and password protected.
