This manufacturer's new network video management system offers more recording options, content management and surveillance, which together with your IP recorder support all levels of network camera format, including 4K.

Sony offers on your VMS a flexible and customizable solution for management, storage and content analysis.

For Roger Lawrence, Sony Europe's video surveillance product manager, "The new VMS platform offers the missing link in the 4K workflow. Thanks to compatibility with a wide range of existing camera systems, as well as fully integrated 4K support that meets demand for higher resolution, Sony provides a comprehensive 4K solution for customers using our imaging technology".

Among other features, the new VMS offers live/local or remote viewing and search functions; multi-customer support on a wide range of devices (Pc, tablets and smartphones, Etc.), as well as enhanced search features (by event or time) to increase efficiency in the use of the system.

Added to this are Sony-exclusive features such as smart trimming, both static and dynamic, and capturing evidence, to get the highest level of camera resolution. In addition, VMS flexibility allows you to work with the analysis functions built into the new cameras and is compatible with sony's entire range, including 4K devices.
