Infinite Possibilities Beyond Surveillance

Unleash the potential and capabilities of your Surveillance Station with the advent of Live Broadcast and Smart Time Lapse

Live Broadcast

The Live Broadcast application enables you to live stream to YouTube with a simple setup process, allowing visitors to watch live footage without the need to install additional software.

Smart Time Lapse

Time Lapse fast forwards a long video and generates a shorter version that is only a few minutes or even seconds long, making it convenient to monitor the progress of ongoing tasks. The time compression factor can be dynamically reduced to display more video details when specific events are detected.
