International. Snap One announced that it has joined ONVIF through its first product lines that include the new Luma x20 surveillance cameras and ClareVision security solutions, allowing Snap One partners to immediately add these products to existing ONVIF-compliant systems.
"Snap One is proud to join the global ONVIF consortium to help improve the standards and interoperability of today's leading security systems and products," said Forest Liu, senior product manager for Snap One. "Our product teams are already working hard to make our existing and future security offerings fully ONVIF compliant to give partners even more choice and flexibility when designing or upgrading security systems."
Snap's initial ONVIF-compliant products include a full range of Luma x20 IP surveillance cameras, with resolutions from 2MP to 4K in turret, bullet, dome, fisheye and PTZ models. Combined with ONVIF-compliant digital video recorders up to 64 channels. Supporting ONVIF S-profile (which sets video streaming standards), G profile (which is for edge storage and retrieval), and T profile (which is for advanced video streaming), these products can be added to existing ONVIF-compliant security systems.
Alignment with a global standard interface allows for greater usability and lower costs for Snap One partners and end users, allowing Luma x20 cameras and recorders to be combined with existing ONVIF-compliant equipment.
ONOVIF's diverse "profiles" allow Snap One partners to easily identify specific interoperable functions, from access control and edge storage to gate control and video streaming. As of October 2022, the features needed to meet ONVIF's requirements for IP surveillance cameras (Profile S, Profile G, and Profile T) are as follows:
* Video codecs: H.265, H.264, MPEG4 and MJPEG
* Audio capabilities: two-way audio
* Events: input, output, video motion and tamper detection
* Other capabilities: Pan tilt zoom (PTZ), edge storage and retrieval
Previously released ClareVision products are advanced solutions that meet or exceed requirements, so they automatically became ONVIF-compliant when Snap One joined ONVIF.
