AxxonSoft announces launch of open video surveillance platform Axxon Next

The software developer of video surveillance and security systems, AxxonSoft, has brought Axxon Next to market, a distributed platform of video surveillance of new generation without limitations for the number of cameras and video servers, and that incorporates new functions such as the Time Compressor, that allows fast viewing of events in the video file without the need to use accelerated playback, and the interactive 3D map, that allows to visualize in a palpable way the video images and the distribution of the cameras, all in one window.

AxxonSoft has released Axxon Next, an open platform of video surveillance of new generation. The unique functions performed in this product allow to provide users with a new level of quality, Functionality, Reliability, productivity, effectiveness and comfort of use. Axxon Next has no scale restrictions – solutions based on this product may include an unlimited number of video and camcorder servers. The stability of operation of the system is achieved through the introduction of a micromodular architecture that guarantees the performance of various functions of the video surveillance system in different processes of the operating system. A particular micromodule is responsible for the fulfillment of each function, and the performance of the micromodules is controlled by a controller module. In case of failures and abnormal termination of the process, the controller module will automatically restart the corresponding micromodule, which will not affect the performance of parallel processes and the operation of the video surveillance system in general. Functional testing of micromodules is performed automatically, which reduces the likelihood of errors in your code.

In Axxon Next is used the specialized file system SolidStore that protects the video surveillance system against the main disadvantage of standard file systems – data fragmentation. The use of SolidStore has greatly improved the speed of access to the video file throughout the life of the system and extend the period of operation of hard drives. Due to the absence of independent blocks containing extremely important information, SolidStore-based video archiving ensures an unmatched level of storage reliability.

Any Axxon Next license includes 10 video detectors and Time Compressor – an instrument to quickly view the video file without using accelerated playback. This technology allows you to simultaneously display on the screen all the objects captured by the camera during a certain period of time, to then view the necessary video fragment with a single click.

During product development, much attention was paid to ease of use and optimization of the interface according to the needs of users. Based on the results of numerous studies, in Axxon Next the interactive 3D map was implemented. this function allows you to combine in a window the map of the object with the cameras installed on it and the video images of these cameras. Thanks to this, the operator can determine at what point in the object the event captured by the camera takes place, without wasting time switching between windows and without having to look to another monitor. In addition, the interface is arranged in such a way that on the screen there is enough space for the map and the video image.

In Axxon Next the principle of “maximum security for all”, in which there are no concepts such as corporate version, professional or basic: full functionality is available on systems of any size and does not depend on the number of channels or their cost. For installation on small objects is available a fully functional free version with a server and 16 video channels, whose file volume is limited to one terabyte. if it is necessary to extend the system or to increase the volume of the video file you can purchase the retail version, in this case, the cost of each additional video channel will remain fixed.
