Types of Video
Manitou supports video of two basic types: Event driven video and streaming video. Event driven video is sent into the system as result of an event that has triggered a signal. The event is processed by Manitou and an alarm is generated, the Video clip that generated the alarm is then played to the operator. Streaming Video is live or recorded video that is streamed from the site, video is shown to the operator in the video window. The view time can be predetermined or operator controlled, this mechanism is ideal for video tours and general surveillance.
"Manitou provides easy access to video and other vital data, so our operators do no spend extra time locating information." - Myron Tibby, Project Coordinator, Northern Trust Bank.
