inView Surveillance Solutions

inView, iMoves new generation immersive video-based surveillance solution, delivers cost-effective,100% persistent surveillance for wide area perimeters and large in-door spaces. iMoves immersivetechnology overcomes the shortfalls security personnel experience with todays CCTV technology toomany cameras and too few eyes. Critical infrastructure and force protection over large areas is attainablewith iMoves innovative inView Surveillance Solutions.

inView solutions enable multiple, simultaneously acquired video streams to be stitched together in real-timeto create a single, wide area immersive display. This state-of-the-art capability provides enhanced situational awareness and maximum actionable intelligence to the system operator. Rather than a confusingarray of CCTV soda straw scenes displayed across a wall of video monitors, inView operators view, roamand zoom seamlessly throughout a single display of the wide area immersive view. This unprecedented immersive view of the surveillance area enables a single inView operator to do the work of several CCTVoperators.

Additionally, inView maintains full coverage while supporting high resolution optical zoom for threatassessment. Operators are able to concentrate on the event at hand knowing surveillance is persistent onthe wide area and that any further incursions will be detected and alarmed. This is far superior to CCTVsolutions that lose area coverage when operators narrow the field of view to zoom and gain greater detailof an incident.

and total cost of ownership are significantly reduced using inView architecture. inView architecture is based on general IT computing platforms and scales easily to address the most demanding wide-arearequirements.

iMoves software-centric engine employs the latest in digital broadband video and IP network platforms.It enables all aspects of immersive video capture, transport, process and display of real-time, multi-camera video streams in a wide-area immersive view. inView solutions include a full range of advanced automation capabilities, such as motion detection and alarm response, and interfaces with existing CCTV

architecture and can be integrated with third party intelligent video applications.

With inView, 100% persistent surveillance of wide area perimeters is now attainable with superior performance, less infrastructure complexity and cost benefits on both installation and operationalexpenses.

Wide-View Display

Wide-View Display optimally exploits high-resolution immersive video acquisition. The key toeffective utilization of the wide-area panoramic video is the ability to display the video in a seamless and

perspectively-correct wide-view format, and in real-time all achieved by iMoves software suite.

Wide-View displays employ two flat screen monitors (sizes ranging from dual 20 to dual 46 monitors)together displaying a seamless image from 3,200 to 3,840 pixels in width and over 3.8 mega-pixels intotal. This very wide, high-resolution display greatly enhances operator effectiveness and situationalawareness when dealing with large areas or long perimeters. The Wide-View high-resolution display of such a large swath of critical coverage area is unmatched in the surveillance industry today. With theWide-View Display the operator sees more and pans less.

Management Displays and System Administration

The inView solution for controlling the Wide-View displays in the Immersive Management AssessmentConsole (iMarc) is through the Management Display and the Administration Display. The ManagementDisplay enables the console operator to manage sensors in the system; create, archive and playback incidents; respond to system Alarms; select Motion Detection modes and view the status of inViewSystems. The Administrative Display enables the operator to manage user rights, configure MotionDetection modes and Guard Zones; configure incident classifications and management; configure archivaloperations and provides the operator with a detailed status of inView subsystems.

The Management Display shows a map of all sensors, established guard zones and their operationalstatus. An alarming sensor and direction of the alarm event are shown.

Flex G Sensors

inView FlexG Sensors provide unparalleled capabilities for optimizing the resolution, coverage

footprint and operational performance of wide-area surveillance solutions. By embedding multipleimagers into a single platform (with up to 11.5 million total pixels) and aligning the imagers in patternstailored to the specific site, iMoves FlexG sensor achieves dramatic performance and cost benefits over conventional sensors and cameras.

A FlexG Sensor can be configured with up to six integrated imagers. On the right, a FlexG Sensor with 540 degree field of view cameras is shown (w/o enclosure). To achieve perimeter coverage of a by mile area, iMove will deploy 9 such FlexG sensors as contrasted with CCTV solutions involving 250cameras.

High Beam and Spotlight Features

Innovative new features in the inView solution continue iMoves trend to leverage advances across thefull range of digital image capture, processing and display technology and deliver cost effective and unique solutions.

High Beam enables further coverage reach from a single FlexG Sensor by using different field of viewlenses across the various imagers. In many perimeter applications, the goal is to project coverageconsistently over a fence line (e.g., 100 meters over) so that automated motion detection has enoughinformation (e.g., certain # of pixels) to alarm on a specific size object (e.g., 6 foot individual). Narrowfield of view lenses (e.g., 20 degree) are used to reach far down and over the fence line and wider field of view (e.g., 40) for areas closer to the location of the FlexG Sensor. The inView software dynamicallyadjusts as the operator roams the immersive display so that all objects across the varying fields of viewappear consistent in size and perspectively-correct.

Spotlight uses high resolution video inserts within a wide area immersive scene to create the mosteffective balance between situational awareness and fine detail. For example, while full situationalawareness within a high bay facility needs to be maintained, it is distinct locations on the floor where theconduct of key processes demands identification of tools, individuals, and procedures. A single FlexGSensor provides the solution using two wide field of view lenses covering the full facility and four spotlight, high resolution lenses. The inView software dynamically integrates these and displays acomplete immersive view embedding the high resolution information.

The Spotlight feature maintains full facility awareness while providing high resolution inserts for fine detail.
