Video surveillance technologies have become firmly and widely integrated into everyday life – they are used both in individual households and in state-level situation centers.

Co-founder and chairman of Axis Communications Martin Gren told PC Week columnist Valery Vasiliev about his vision of the current state of video surveillance technologies and the possibilities of implementing actively discussed new IT trends in real conditions of video surveillance systems operation.

PC Week : main trends and drivers of the global video surveillance market?

Martin Gren: I think the main trends in video surveillance nepal whatsapp data are new compression standards – smart codecs, multi-sensor video cameras and image quality enhancement tools. There is also a lot of speculation about the use of video analytics, big data and cloud technologies in video surveillance. However, in my opinion, the development of comprehensive solutions for video surveillance is much more important and relevant.

PC Week : What is the driving force behind innovation in the video surveillance market today – consumer demand or developer initiatives?

M.G.: My answer is the real needs of customers. And the developers follow them.

PC Week : But I remember that about ten years ago, at an international conference for the press, Axis specialists talked about the video surveillance technologies promoted by the company, which for the majority of consumers still remain new products. Maybe the developers are ahead of the market?

M.G.: Video surveillance is related to the security industry. And solutions for this area require reliable and precise operation of their components. Indeed, talk about video analytics began 10-15 years ago and great hopes were pinned on it. However, by today they have not come true: this tool is effectively used in practice only in certain cases. For example, to recognize car numbers in parking lots and in traffic, in retail to count customers in sales areas and determine their gender, in facial recognition at checkpoints (in particular, during check-in at airports)... But at the same time, facial recognition in large crowds remains unreliable for responsible use in the security industry. Therefore, I believe that practical demand is the driving force behind innovations in video surveillance.
