Sony NSR-100 Intelligent Network Video Recorder

Sony NSR-100 Intelligent Network Video Recorder

This powerful, intelligent, all-in-one network surveillance recorder is extremely easy to use for multi-camera monitoring, recording, search and playback. It offers 1000 GB storage capacity, 480 frames per second recording and support for up to 64 audio channels. Incorporating intelligent video analytics including Video Motion Filter Alarms and Video Motion Filter Searches it provides high levels of operational efficiency and security. It can be deployed as a stand-alone system or in a small- to large-scale client/server configuration, and uses the reliable Linux operating system.

Key Features:

• The recorder captures high-quality images from multiple cameras at a rate of 480 frames per second (16 cameras x 30 fps). It has a 1000 GB capacity hard disk drive (with a mechanism for quick, easy data recovery if the drive becomes corrupted) and, for even greater reliability, RAID drives.
• Based on the Sony Distributed Processing Architecture (DEPA) platform, this efficient and intelligent processing method enables the recorder to use metadata and filters received from DEPA-enabled cameras to analyse object movement Intelligent Motion Detection (IMD) and Intelligent Object Detection (IOD). This minimises server workload, network bandwidth and storage capacity.
• With DEPA-enabled cameras, the filter alarm lets you limit alarm triggers to specific object movements/situations, and to specific object size/direction/speed (you simply exclude any objects that should not trigger an alarm). The built-in IMD function works independently of the cameras to trigger an alarm or perform other actions (e.g., lock doors, turn on lights)..
• Use the filters you set for DEPA-enabled camera monitoring for your searches. This drastically reduces your image retrieval and review/audit times. You can also search for recently recorded images from a recording list, and perform advanced searches to locate recorded images by designating cameras, date, time and recording/alarm type.
• The recorder automatically recognises and registers any installed network cameras and assigns IP addresses. It also generates an appropriate monitoring layout based on the number of registered cameras. The intuitive, user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI) lets you set up viewer windows in various combinations.
• From a remote location, you can control up to 100 recorders from a single PC running the supplied software. This enables basic operations (live image monitoring, recording, playback and image search) and AVI file export to another location. An optional remote control unit lets you control both the recorder and networked cameras.
• You can assign a hot-spot area (a specific monitor window within a multi-camera view) and configure the system with dual monitors. This lets you assign up to nine hot-spot monitor windows to the second monitor to ensure crucial events are not missed.
• The recorder supports recording and playback for cameras that encode in both MPEG-4 and JPEG, giving you more options when configuring your network monitoring system.
