International. LenelS2 announced a strategic distribution agreement with BriefCam. The agreement allows LenelS2 value-added resellers to offer the BriefCam video content analytics platform with the LenelS2 VRx ™ and Milestone XProtect video management systems, as well as within LenelS2's unified Magic Monitor® client.
These integrated solutions enhance situational awareness and provide actionable insights to security operators when they view live video surveillance broadcasts and recorded videos, and join the Carrier Healthy Buildings Program's suite of offerings to help provide healthier, safer, more efficient and productive indoor environments.
The Magic Monitor unified security client brings together access control, video surveillance, forensics, Internet sources from live sources such as weather, traffic and news, and interactive content such as blueprints and maps. It allows the visualization and management of access alarms, as well as cardholder data, credentials and access rights for LenelS2 OnGuard® and NetBox ™ access control systems.
For LenelS2 adding the BriefCam video analytics solution to the Magic Monitor client provides a powerful way for security operators to easily review hours of video in minutes, quickly identify people and objects of interest, receive real-time notifications of critical events, and dynamically analyze key performance indicators to optimize operations. The BriefCam solution interacts with LenelS2 VRx and Milestone XProtect software, with live and recorded video managed and displayed on the Magic Monitor client.
"BriefCam's advanced video analytics solution helps maximize situational awareness and operational intelligence for end users using our Magic Monitor client for access and video," said Ross McKay, vice president of global strategy and partnerships at LenelS2.
"The Integrations of the Magic Monitor and LenelS2 VRx client with BriefCam's video content analytics enable organizations to derive exponential value from their existing investments in video surveillance systems," said Gili Rom, briefCam's vice president of strategy and partnerships. "With BriefCam's high-precision, high-performance video analytics, they can gain useful insights into their environment."
The LenelS2 and BriefCam interfaces will continue to be enhanced to enable even more advanced features for future product launches.
