ISC West 2006
RESTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 4, 2006--Cernium Corporation, a pioneer in advanced video analytics and behavior recognition technologies, today announced a new release of its flagship intelligent video system, Perceptrak(R). The system is currently installed in more than 50 airports, commercial and government locations and cultural institutions throughout North America. Perceptrak version 4.0 expands the capabilities of Cernium's successful 3-series with new customer-driven features such as simplified setup and reconfiguration, expanded IP camera compatibility and "edge of the network" bandwidth management options. The result is a more flexible, robust and intuitive approach to video analytics.
"Perceptrak 4.0 combines the power of advanced video analytics with features and functions derived from experience in real-world security operations," said Phil Robertson, Cernium's Vice President for Corporate Development. "With major ease-of-use enhancements, plus several new customer-requested capabilities, such as multi-zone wrong-way motion and object-removal detection, Perceptrak will continue to lead the industry in providing a complete solution for video surveillance management."
Perceptrak 4.0 is driven by Cernium's patented Perception Based Analytics(TM) technology, which mimics the human vision process to offer the most efficient video analysis capability available. Perception Based Analytics enable Cernium customers to apply any combination of alerts simultaneously to as many as 16 distinct video sources using a single Pentium 4 processor. As a result, Perceptrak can support far greater numbers of video channels, with smaller space and bandwidth requirements, than competing systems that use conventional pixel analysis techniques.
Cernium introduced its first product, the best-selling ExitSentry(R), in 1996 and has the longest record of secure, reliable performance in the video analytics industry. Cernium's Perceptrak customers include Boeing, Johns Hopkins University, the City of Yonkers Municipal Parking Authority and George Washington's Mount Vernon Estate.
