Video Distribution
Video distribution allows for all video sources to be viewed on any TV. We all distribute our cable and satellite to all TV's already. You can also distribute the family room DVD player and the baby room's camera so that any TV in the house can watch the movie playing in the family room, or keep tabs on the baby.

If infrared (IR) is also distributed then you can even control the family room DVD player from another room. Our standard cable TV outlet contains 2 cable connections (RG6 quad shield) and 1 network/phone connection (CAT5e). This allows for a satellite box that requires a phone connection to be used at any location.

It also allows for any location to have a video source component (DVD, VCR, etc.) that can be distributed around the house and viewed TV's in other rooms. For example, the DVD player in the family room can be viewed from the playroom TV or the rec room.

Security Cameras Shake

Videos from Security cameras often shake. Shake comes from many sources and is amplified by high-power zoom lenses. Swaying buildings, wind-driven locations, cameras mounted near machinery or Heating Ventilation Air Condition, PTZ servos and of course all mobile applications – they all generate shaky and unsteady videos.

Steady is more than beauty

Removing the shake has more benefits than the obvious professional look for the installation:

A steady video shows cleaner details. Sharp details are a requirement for good and high quality security video.
Steady video is less fatiguing to watch. Keeping the operator alert is a major challenge in real-life security CCTV. A simple change like a steady image helps a lot to meet this challenge.
Steady video compresses better. Modern digital compressors use a lot of bits to encode moving features of a video. If the whole image shakes, it is all moving. This wastes an enormous number of bits. Remove the shake and digital recorders store more video. For the same reason, stable images have higher compression and quality for remote and Internet viewing.

NightView – Video Enhancement
NightView generates clean and crisp video from noisy, overexposed, or underexposed input surveillance video. A NightView video shows cleaner details. Sharp details are a requirement for good and high quality security video.

CloseView™

Appliance Give your guard a break!Security cameras are a cost-effective means to keep large areas under 24/7 surveillance. Add a recorder and you’ve got an automated system. But the short focal-length lens that covers that wide area yields recorded video that is too coarse to blow up to see detail. A digital zoom doesn’t help if the data isn’t there –you only get bigger pixels, not details. Of course you can use the powerful optical zoom of your PTZ camera to zoom in on interesting objects while theyare on-camera to get the detail you need. But this requires an operator –until now. The CloseView video appliance, designed by the motion experts at DynaPel allows unattended operations to capture close-ups of the action in the scene. It watches the wide-angle video, just like an electronic watchman. When there is detected motion in the field of view, it automatically directs your PTZ camera to zoom in and look at the “activity”. In addition the CloseView appliance deploys an alarm output to trigger recording, so faces and car licenses are clearly, sharply recorded with your DVR for later review and action. .

NightView Appliance

Most of the crime happens in the darkness

Criminals know that surveillance cameras don’t operate well at low light or high contrast situations. Low light generates noisy video images at best, and bright lights (like from car head lights) overexpose the electronics in the camera, such that all detail is lost. The electronics in a standard surveillance camera is just too simple to compensate for that.
This all changes with the plug-and-play NightView appliance from DynaPel. It works with virtually every camera and generates clean and crisp video from noisy, overexposed, or underexposed input video. Like from an expensive high-dynamic range camera.

NightView makes night videos useable

Correcting for over- or underexposure, dimming bright lights and simultaneously lighting up shaded areas proves more than just creating a nicer video:

A NightView video shows cleaner details. Sharp details are a requirement for good and high quality security video.
NightView video is less fatiguing to watch and makes it for an operator much easier to recognize critical situation, suspicious behavior or people. Keeping the operator alert is a major challenge in real-life security CCTV.
