Axxon Next video management software now updated to version 3.5

AxxonSoft is delighted to announce the release of version 3.5 of the company's Axxon Next video management software (VMS). The developers' main efforts in the new update went to expanding features, implementing new functionality, and improving ease of use.

Highlights in version 3.5 include geomaps integration and new features for working with recorded video, reinforcing Axxon Next's well-deserved reputation as an outstanding system for video analytics.

Key new features for users in the updated version:

Information boards can be added to layouts alongside surveillance viewing tiles. Information boards are a quick, visual way of monitoring three types of information: 1) health of system components, 2) events, and 3) statistics for events matching a user-set filter over a selected time period.

OpenStreetMap integration allows downloading site map imagery from the Internet automatically in real time.

Live video thumbnails on maps mean that every camera marker on a map displays a thumbnail of the video from that camera, offering even more information at a glance. Video thumbnails are displayed in all map modes: 2D, 3D, and immersion mode.

Comments for recorded video and comments search: operators can now leave text comments for a frame, scene, or alert. Comments can be also used to find video: a search term is typed in a special field and the results pane displays all frames that have comments containing the text.

Save MomentQuest2 forensic search queries: save and name recurring MomentQuest2 searches to increase operator efficiency. Saved queries are shown as tabs in the lower part of the video window. Users can click a tab to view the corresponding search results.

In addition to these new tools, Axxon Next 3.5 has features that make video surveillance easier and more convenient: new resize logic when adjusting layout size, as well as panoramic display of video from cameras with ImmerVision lenses. Video detection tools can be configured to conserve bandwidth, depending on whether a high-resolution or low-resolution stream is necessary.
