When the Japanese Embassy in Cairo moved to its new building on the banks of the Nile recently, it chose a Geutebruck CCTV monitoring system despite fierce international competition - especially from Japanese manufacturers.
The Embassy's hundred-camera, five-workstation system is based on the GeViScope digital CCTV platform which has a dedicated digital signal processor for each video channel, and hence the capacity to process large amounts of data and the flexibility to process each signal differently, precisely as required. Its dual channel streaming means it can stream and record the same scene in different qualities simultaneously. Here for example 25fps 4CIF video for smooth real-time viewing and 10 fps 4CIF footage for later detailed analysis.
The GeViScope system was able to outperform its competitors because it could record faster and at higher resolutions, and because of its support for managing multiple CCTV platforms. The system includes video motion detection for protecting sensitive areas of the site, with alarm pictures delivered to GSM mobiles when necessary. GeViScope software updating allows easy system expansion and the maintenance of its state-of-the-art status indefinitely.
