EarthCam released an update to its Control Center 8 Software-as-a-Service suite that supports advanced jobsite security. The latest version, 8.6, features EarthCam’s Edge Video Recorder, a powerful security solution that goes beyond event-based recording. It offers HD continuous video recording with up to 120 days of retention and secure 256 bit AES encryption. An intuitive, visual timeline interface makes access to recorded video fast and simple on a smartphone, tablet or computer from any location. Footage can be reviewed quickly and incidents are easily shareable with security response personnel. Additional benefits include the implementation of low-latency, full-duplex WebSockets for Pan-Tilt-Zoom resulting in significantly more accurate and responsive control of jobsite security cameras.
The new service also offers user-definable visual motion detection with include/exclude area definitions, intelligent object detection capabilities such as loitering, left object and moving object tracking and the ability to interface with external sensor technology. Users can toggle IR sensitive night mode and task robotic systems with security-specific preset positions to quickly identify and auto-track potential threats when they happen.
