10,000 WAYS TO VIEW Quantum
BY KEVIN EMMOTT
Making its European debut, v5.0 of Quantum’s Unifi ed Surveillance Platform (USP) software introduces patented video data reduction techniques that enable users to record thousands of video streams simultaneously, at maximum uptime, with fewer servers required.
USP v5.0 software introduces a simplifi ed user experience
Quantum claims this reduces the risk of hardware failure and shrinks data centre footprint by up to 80%. The software is capable of hosting more than 10,000 cameras on a single system. The USP replaces racks of NVR servers with a single unifi ed compute and storage software platform for video recording and analytics. Its patented software approach to data protection and automatic failover across the
entire cluster practically eliminates data loss or downtime
due to a failed component or NVR server. It is also able
to run multiple physical security applications on one single unifi ed infrastructure; a USP cluster can include processors for compute,
CONNECTING LIVE FROM CAMERA TO CLOUD Imagen
BY ANNE MORRIS
Cloud media asset management platform Imagen is showcasing the latest version of Live Connect, providing rightsholders, broadcasters, teams and leagues with the ability to ingest live feeds for redistribution and archive. According to the company, Live Connect ingests and automatically stores multiple live feeds via SRT and RTMP protocols from camera to cloud. This provides users with permission-based access to share, download, edit, enrich and repurpose live content as it’s happening. Imagen claimed that the capability to ingest multiple

PROCESSING FOR VOLUMETRIC CAPTURE AND MORE
Emergent Vision Technologies BY DAVID FOX
Applications ranging from volumetric capture and the metaverse to machine vision can make use of comprehensive development software eCapture Pro from Emergent. eCapture Pro provides a graphical interface for complete system integration, camera setting, advanced preview and recording, with synchronised capture to microsecond accuracy.
eCapture Pro has powerful features for controlling multi-camera 3D set-ups
It is also claimed to support the industry’s fastest frame rates. The software delivers advanced playback functionality for spatial
and time domains, camera calibration with auto camera position detection, integrated 3D reconstruction and texturing, an
Unreal/Unity plug-in for streaming models and more. John Ilett, President and CTO, Emergent Vision Technologies, said: “While applications such as volumetric capture or motion capture stages require multiple high-resolution, high-frame- rate cameras, a means for processing and reconstructing video is also required. With eCapture Pro, end users have a tool for complete project management, from camera start-up and confi guration to 3D reconstruction and playback.” 12.H61
