About Industrial Video and Control Company Profile | Press Releases | Key Advantages| Partners
Industrial Video and Control Co. (IVC) provides IP-based video solutions by combining high-quality cameras and software for managing networks of video cameras. IVC seeks to supply the most cost-effective solutions that meet our customers’ application requirements.
IVC provides a full range of IP cameras and camera management software. IVC’s Relay Server together with its View Station Software is well designed to serve a broad range of customer needs. IVC software incorporates all of the basic functions of a traditional CCTV system (multiplexer, switches, DVR, controller). Since it is totally IP based, it does not require these CCTV components and their associated points of failure. Our camera system is scalable from a few cameras to hundreds. It is suitable for applications ranging from small retail stores to enterprise wide systems. IVC camera systems can incorporate a wide range of cameras. Key features of our camera systems include:
IVC’s product features are often developed in response to customer requirements. Where specific applications have special needs, IVC has been able to move very fast because it has both strong in-house software and hardware development capability. To address very specific application requirements, IVC has developed a line of special purpose cameras that include an IP tamper-resistant wedge camera, an IP thermal pan/tilt/zoom camera, Class 1 Div 2 certified camera, and an EMI hardened camera enclosure. IVC’s major competitive advantages are our solid line of off-the-shelf products, talented in-house software and hardware development team, responsiveness to customers’ needs, unwavering support, strong existing relationships with resellers and customers, and an excellent reputation. IVC was incorporated in November 2001. 2009 IVC and Elpro Technologies partner to offer wireless industrial video solutions IVC and Actelis Networks combine to provide high-speed video over copper IVC Introduces New Low-cost IR Illuminators ABB selects IVC camera system for Guri Dam Project 2008 IVC Expands Rapid Deploy Camera Line IVC Introduces Outdoor PTZ PoE camera IVC Integrates Video and ISONAS Access Control Systems IVC Expands all-weather PoE product line 2007 IVC now shipping Class I Division I cameras IVC Introduces Class I Div 1 megapixel camera IVC Introduces cellular camera 2006 IVC Introduces EMI-Hardened Camera Enclosures IVC becomes Wonderware Registered ISV Industrial Video and Control placed in 2006 INC 500 Industrial Video and Control becomes Tropos Networks’ MetroMesh™ Solutions Partner IVC Expands Certified Line of Products 2005 IVC to Provide Cameras for Missile Defense Platform IVC Introduces Class I Div II Certified Cameras IVC Introduces Tamper Resistant IP Wedge Camera IVC to Provide Cameras for Next Generation Coast Guard Cutter 2004 IVC Introduces CS-3408 Analog-to-Digital 8 Cam Rack Server Iowa DOT's Monitoring System to be Integrated into National CARS Program IVC Provides Security for US Military in Iraq IVC Introduces State-of-the-Art MPEG2 PTZ Camera Virginia Port Authority Purchases Automated Video Monitoring System from IVC Wisconsin DOT Goes Live with State-of-the-Art IVC Security Systems IVC Provides Security Cameras for the Boston Police Department Advantages of IVC Video Systems Remote Accessibility - View, control, and manage the entire video and control system from any PC on your company LAN, and/or via the WWW, phone lines, satellite links, or wireless PDAs. No special monitors or viewing software is required. Grant temporary password access to second parties such as police, fire, equipment providers etc. Operate the system from remote sites on any PC. Conduct video collaboration from multiple locations without conferencing equipment. High Quality Images - IVC uses only the best imaging equipment from Sony, Raytheon and others. Motor driven glass optics provide extreme close-up views that enable real determinations and confident decision making as well as high quality digitally stored video for detailed analysis and video archiving. Displays can be easily configured for single camera or simultaneous, multiple camera views of equal or varied size. System Security - Several levels of password protection can be used and encryption is available. Access can be as open or limited as desired. Ease of Use - The Click-to-View feature on the video and panoramas, and the precision high zoom preset views make the system easy for untrained operators, particularly on narrow bandwidth connections that make "arrow" or "joystick" systems difficult to use. Automatic responses like event-triggered-video-storage, SCADA e-mailed snapshots, and the like are easily implemented. Multifunction - Connect auxiliary devices directly to the camera enclosure for low cost, remote interfaces. Devices such as motion detectors, remote gate latches, process monitoring and control devices can be integrated with the system. Use the system to monitor operations by day and for security during off hours. No Single Point Failures - Backup Relay Servers can be located at multiple locations with capability to switch to alternative routing - almost without missing a frame. Bandwidth Manager - The IVC system is designed to operate properly and securely with any level of connectivity. For example, the system can be set to operate within an adjustable bandwidth budget to avoid slowing other applications. The Click-to-View features and camera-located video storage enable effective operation on very narrow bandwidth connections where joysticks, arrows, and VCR storage are inadequate. Scaleability - The IVC Relay Server architecture enables many viewers at multiple locations, and it can manage one to hundreds of cameras. It is a simple matter to add cameras and additional functions at any time. Positioned for the Future - IVC's open protocols and TCP/IP communication avoids obsolescence. It's easy to add additional storage, simple or complex motion detection, control of gates, doors and lights, inputs from process devices, etc. Ease of Installation - Connect the cameras to your existing LAN, load the Relay Server software onto any LAN connected PC, located anywhere, and the installation is complete. Complete System - No costly add-ons like multiplexers, switches, dedicated video monitors, dedicated wiring are required. The camera cost is a higher but the total system cost is lower than traditional CCTV systems. IVC can provide all associated equipment including brackets, poles, solar panels, radio systems, fiber converters, etc. |
