Cool Digital Picture Monitoring Toolkit 4.0
he software has been created as general application for security cross platforms functioning concurrently with wireless and wired Internet webcams, Television-cards, capture boards, power-line, and USB cameras. It has web interface with the equal look and functionality on the local and apart pcs. Users view MPEG-4 coded picture and have full management of the program via network that surveillance station can be run without monitor, keyboard, and mouse attached. Software`s modular composition significantly improves reliability because all units act as autonomous programs. If one module freezes, other components continue running. For example if the `capture` part fails, `watchdog` restarts it immediately that users don`t notice anything because they are watching picture via a `playback` unit. The program performs `cyclic` recording that the `hard drive full` situation never occurs. The recording can be non-stop or it can be triggered by activity, human face recognition, or by calendar. The software has pre-alarm and post-alarm recording. Playing back recorded video is pretty simple and performs on the surveillance computer as well as on apart workstation through Web interface. The program does synchronized video playback for event analysis from many cameras concurrently. Also recorded files can be searched by date, time or by face detected. All recorded files can be encrypted and password protected.
