| Panasonic presented AEG with a total solution that addressed all of its' technology needs |
The agreement will benefit sports and entertainment fans who will attend events at the ‘Panasonic Powered Properties' by enabling a broad infusion of Panasonic System Solutions company technologies. Among them will be Panasonic's industry-leading i-Pro digital video surveillance solutions, including IP-based network management and control, cameras, network video recorders (NVRs) and servers. Super Dynamic III (SDIII) colour PTZ (pan, tilt and zoom) cameras for weatherproof outdoor and indoor applications will provide high-quality, clear images with 128x dynamic range. The new digital video equipment will be integrated with an existing analogue video surveillance system from Panasonic to create a hybrid system that expands surveillance capabilities while protecting the value of previous technology investments.
In addition to the use of digital surveillance and other Panasonic technologies to improve entertainment, education, safety, convenience and the environment, the new business agreement includes extensive cross sponsorship opportunities as well as product integration for Panasonic within AEG owned or promoted properties and assets within North America.
"During this time of economic hardship that is affecting so many aspects of business and everyday life, this exclusive and uniquely structured partnership between Panasonic and AEG is designed to stimulate business for a multitude of companies beyond the principal parties, while also bolstering consumer confidence," said J.M. Allain, President of Panasonic's System Solutions Company business unit. "We have worked hard to redefine traditional sponsorships into true partnerships by committing to a comprehensive investment in resources, affirming our company's emphasis on delivering technology-driven solutions that transcend traditional business systems and consumer electronics expectations."The agreement will benefit sports and entertainment fans who will attend events at the ‘Panasonic Powered Properties' by enabling a broad infusion of Panasonic System Solutions company technologies
