Videotec announced the integration of their Albert device for Video Content Analysis with the Milestone X-Protect IP Video Management platform. Albert is a new concept in CCTV Systems, merging Intelligent Video Analytics with operational ease and providing optimal viewing to operators and recording systems. The manufacturer has patented the cooperation between cameras providing high quality recording and viewing facilities in one system.

The built-in fault-tolerance and redundancy make it adequate for mission critical outdoor applications, where multiple events can occur simultaneously and where operators are required to control a large number of cameras including PTZ models. Installation and operational costs of video analytics solutions are therefore minimized. The device’s architecture creates an Intelligent Security Network that actively aids guards in prompt decision-making in video surveillance tasks.
