AlarmView, a battery-operated DIY wireless video solution that provides a
new level of immediacy and convenience to match today’s busy lifestyle. The
ability to view your home or office on your mobile phone, anywhere/anytime,
presents a new paradigm in video monitoring. A combination of “always-on”
connectivity and “security-on-the-go” benefits all partners - end-users, mobile
operators and security providers alike. The AlarmView offers exciting
revenue generating possibilities for both the mobile and security
industries:
Mobile Environment AlarmView enables mobile
operators to offer unique value-added messaging services. Through simple SMS
commands, end users request, receive and view real-time images or streaming
video on their mobile phones and/or via e-mail. As MMS traffic is generated
following detection activations and in response to SMS requests, this solution
has mass market appeal - encouraging the uptake of mobile data services,
increasing ARPU, reducing churn, and efficiently using available bandwidth to
generate incremental revenue.
Security Environment Security providers
continue to search for new technologies to enhance their revenue stream and to
reduce the expenses caused by false alarms. MTeye Security's AlarmView elevates
home/office safety and security to a new level. The AlarmView wireless video
verification system can be installed as a stand-alone surveillance solution, or
as a seamless add-on to any existing wired/wireless alarm system. When the
system is triggered, either by an event or by a viewing request,
SmartView/LiveView sensors capture real-time images or streaming video of the
secured area and transmit these as MMS messages to any pre-programmed mobile
phone and/or e-mail address.
Functions The AlarmView system provides the
following functions: ▪ Notification: remote visual
notification when an alarm is triggered ▪
Verification: reduce false alarm costs through visual verification (DD243:2004
compliant) ▪ Remote viewing: view the secured site
wherever your are and whenever you want ▪ safe
arrival of children from school ▪ stock delivered
to warehouse ▪ status of remote summer/winter
home ▪ business is open on time ▪ care of loved ones (elderly, infants)
Parts of the system
Media Gateway The Media Gateway is the system hub,
supporting up to six SmartView and/or LiveView sensors; with the integrated
quad-band GSM/GPRS modem, images/video from the sensors are transmitted to
mobile phones and/or e-mail addresses. By connecting the Media Gateway to an
alarm panel, both units can be armed simultaneously; an alarm will trigger the
AlarmView system to capture images and/or video. In addition to three trigger
inputs, the Media Gateway also includes a programmable relay output.
SmartView The SmartView is a supervised wireless motion
detector combined with a high-quality VGA color CMOS camera. The SmartView
boasts a robust, low power two-way communication link that is monitored every 20
seconds! When the AlarmView system is armed, a pre-alarm image is stored by the
SmartView sensors. After alarm detection, the SmartView stores and forwards
an additional two images to the Media Gateway, thereby providing pre-alarm,
alarm and post-alarm images.
LiveView The LiveView is a supervised wireless motion detector
combined with a high-quality VGA color CMOS camera that provides streaming video
recording/transmission based on an MPEG-4 media processor. When the sensor
detects movement it transmits a 10-second streaming video clip (up to 25fps) to
the Media Gateway, providing both pre and post-alarm video capture.
