SceneTracker provides a real-world, real-time perspective of multiple camera images in a single integrated view.  While traditional video monitoring systems typically provide multiplexed or sequential views, or at best use a mega pixel or panoramic camera, SceneTracker goes much further by showing the world as the human eye was meant to see it.  In addition, with SceneTracker, objects or persons of interest can be tracked, zoomed in on and hovered over to achieve closer, detailed views. Many monitoring installations are confronted with the challenge of having multiple cameras viewing adjacent areas.  SceneTracker is the first commercially available solution that addresses this problematic situation using off-the-shelf, open standards networking and computer equipment.SceneTracker’s many cost and functionality end user benefits include: Decreases operational manpower needed Reduces operator errors Increases reaction time Shorter operator training cycles Operators better understand camera orientation and relationship between cameras More effectively recognize suspicious behavior Continuous tracking across cameras Allows for peripheral vision  Provides spatial content analysis DVTel’s software innovation permits live viewing of multiple cameras from either a single point of view or remote cameras with different points of view that are then combined into a seamless panorama.  Even when camera coverage isn’t contiguous, fragmented video images can be seamlessly oriented and navigated, permitting more effective, more “logical” viewing within fixed structures such as elevator banks, stairwells, parking garages, hospitals, schools, and many other applications.
