Milestone Releases XProtect Corporate 3.1 With Enhanced GUI
COPENHAGEN, Feb. 19 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ -
- Smart Client 5.0 Takes Usability to New Levels of Ease, Adaptability
and Efficiency Letting Video Surveillance Operators Demand Perfection
Milestone Systems, the open platform company in IP video management
software, today announces the release of XProtect(TM) Corporate 3.1 with a
significant new version of the user interface: Smart Client 5.0.
Ground-breaking functionality like the Sequence Explorer investigation tool
and independent playback significantly increase efficiency in security
operations and investigations.
Milestone version 3.1 of XProtect Corporate is powerful IP video
management software designed for large-scale, mission-critical security
implementations, supporting unlimited cameras, users and sites. This release
includes streamlined and optimized installation procedures for easier
deployment, Management Server Failover using Windows(R) Server Clustering,
plus Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 support.
Even more important news about this release, however, is the innovative
version 5.0 of XProtect Smart Client that takes a giant leap forward in
usability and functionality. It is available in 20 languages including online
help, which extends the software's ease of use around the world.
Milestone XProtect Smart Client 5.0 also improves the user experience
through an enhanced, adaptable interface that focuses on personalized
usability and operational efficiency. The intuitive layout allows users to
show only the dialogs preferred or needed for surveillance tasks, or hide
them all for a pure full-screen mode of viewing, if desired. In addition to
selecting controls on the fly, each user can choose to remove controls from
the interface, so only the most relevant ones are displayed. This makes the
system interface easier to understand and navigate - especially for new
users.
With this release, XProtect Smart Client features an industry first
called Sequence Explorer that previews tiled video from recorded sequences or
time intervals from multiple cameras. The Sequence Explorer displays a
drag-and-throw wall of video preview images in thumbnails with smooth slider
scrolling and easy selection of preview images for closer scrutiny of
details. The Sequence Explorer is a powerful new investigation tool to browse
through recorded video sequences to find incidents and evidence fast.
Milestone XProtect Smart Client now also provides video overlay
playback controls to view individual cameras in live mode. This means that
operators can play back events on one camera without losing track of what
happens live. This feature also works in the normal playback mode so
operators can see recorded camera images in the view from different times.
Overlay buttons can also be added on each camera to facilitate common actions
such as triggering events and outputs, using PTZ, and other tracking tasks -
all to improve surveillance effectiveness.
"XProtect Corporate 3.1 with Smart Client 5.0 offers innovative new
combinations of tools for improving the user's experience and efficiency on
the job, which translates to more rapid response and better security.
Independent playback and the unique Sequence Explorer make investigations far
easier than ever before, and the adaptable GUI in particular is a
game-changer in the surveillance industry that operators at all skill levels
will really appreciate," says John Blem, CTO and Co-Founder of Milestone
Systems.
XProtect Smart Client 5.0 shows up to 100 concurrent cameras in a single
view with unlimited numbers of more via carousel and HotSpot windows.
Customers can ramp it up with XProtect Smart Wall for large command center
installations, and add even more value through integrated solutions with
other systems offered by Milestone Solution Partners.
Milestone is revealing XProtect Smart Client in a webinar today at 9 a.m.
Pacific Coast time, also shown at the Milestone Integration Platform
Symposium that is being held in Hollywood, California. The webinar will be
made available for viewing thereafter on the Milestone website
XProtect Corporate 3.1 with the new Smart Client 5.0 will be demonstrated
live at the upcoming industry trade shows this spring around the world.
