Genetec announced the release of the latest version of its unified security platform, Security Center 4.0. The Security Center now seamlessly unifies Genetec's Omnicast IP video surveillance and Synergis IP access control systems with its AutoVu IP license plate recognition (LPR) system, offering customers a single point from which to monitor their security and safety systems.

One of the most significant enhancements is the unification of AutoVu, Genetec's IP LPR system, within the Security Center. AutoVu LPR system users will now enjoy access to Genetec's cutting-edge and intuitive client application, the Security Desk, as well as the Security Center's enterprise-level functionality such as seamless scalability over IP. Moreover, users can now centralize monitoring, reporting, and data mining for all their fixed LPR installations using the Security Center in tandem with the AutoVu Sharp camera.
