ASTA Announces SkyWire Video V2.0-code named "Venus"
With the popularity of the Internet, the proliferation of CCTV systems, the
fast spread of Wi-Fi and cellular wireless modems, and the ever increasing
demand for more security, ASTA has developed a new generation of SkyWire
Video technology to take advantage of these converging technologies. The
goal to securely support any video input, and any audio input, from anywhere
make them available on any platform and device, with a highly secure
connection-either wireless or "wired," using MPEG-4 Video with audio options
for outstanding performance. PocketPC devices using WiFi connections should
see frame rates of 4-10fps.
SkyWire Video also supports advanced motion detection, and records video to
hard disk using MPEG-4 compression to reduce disk space requirements. E-mail
alerts can notify remote users of detected events. Remote clients can play
back recorded video, or view "live" video on PC's, cell phones, or PocketPC
devices.
SkyWire Video is designed to meet Dept. of Defense Class III requirements
for maintaining the safety and security of its video streams, so customers
can use remote monitoring and wireless devices with confidence.
This new generation of SkyWire Video technology is based on the concept of
SkyWire Remote Channels, which allows any Video/Audio input device to be
captured and the video stream to efficiently distributed in a
network/Internet environment.
They key to SkyWire Remote Channels is the ability for SkyWire Capture
Servers to act as a remote client to SkyWire Venus Servers, with a high
level of security to assure the safety of the customers' video, even in
wireless environments. The SkyWire Venus Architecture provides a flexible
and "Lego"-like building block that provides software that can capture video
and audio, directly support remote clients, and securely push that
video/audio to other remote Venus Servers.
Preliminary documentation can be downloaded now and access evaluation
versions are available on request including a server and PocketPC client
that can get up to 5-10FPS with audio.
Video Sources include:
· Webcams or USB Cameras
· Legacy systems connected to Video Boards
· Existing DVR's or multiplexer-based CCTV systems.
· HTTP Network Cameras, including Axis, Panasonic, Flexwatch, Veo,
D-Link and others.
· Video Appliances (watch for more announcements on this soon)
· Other SkyWire Video Servers
These video sources, along with associated audio, can be securely
transmitted to a number of "client" platforms and devices, including:
· Browser Clients
· Win32 Client
· PocketPC C
