Uniview is one of the most popular video surveillance systems on the market. Uniview devices secure thousands of homes, offices, shops, hospitals, and even cities: Troyes in northern France or one of the most densely populated areas of Seoul, Gangnam. A user can now view Uniview video streams in the Ajax app.
With an integrated security system, the user can check at any time whether the stove is turned off, where is their cat, whether the children are back home, or what triggered the motion detector alarm. Ajax helps to create such a system using cameras, detectors, and home automation devices. And the user can control it from anywhere in the world with a free app.
Video surveillance device
Using the Ajax app, the user can watch streams from Uniview cameras and DVRs and pause them to take screenshots.
The connection is extremely simple:
- Log in to Uniview account
- Choose which cameras (or DVRs) will be available in the Ajax app
Up to 10 cameras can be connected to Hub and up to 25 cameras to Hub 2. However, in order to monitor large facilities, the user may need more CCTV devices. Hub Plus can help with that. It can manage up to 50 cameras. And if the user needs even more cameras try DVRs. The application will treat each video recorder as a single video surveillance device regardless of the number of cameras linked to it.
Encrypted streaming process
Even if there will be more than a hundred cameras, they can still switch between while watching the stream. The streaming process is encrypted and the application never saves it on their servers. This is how it goes. First, the stream from a camera or a video recorder is broadcasted to the Uniview cloud. Then, it is transferred to the Ajax application using Uniview SDK. Only the user and the people with the corresponding rights can access the video streams within the Ajax app.
