Milestone Announces XProtectTM SDK version 3.3
For IP Video Integrations with Analytics and H.264

Milestone Systems, the open platform company within IP video management software, has announced the release of the XProtectTM Software Development Kit (SDK) version 3.3.

 

The SDK provides rich and robust Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) used by a wide community of solution partners, consultants and systems integrators to create network-based surveillance solutions that are interoperable with other systems and devices.

Examples of these include Milestone IP video integration with analytics, biometrics, access control, Point-of-Sale, people counting, HVAC building management, video walls and control rooms, maps, lighting, fire alarms, baggage handling, gates, parking barriers, RFID, ERP, and much more.

The SDK is used by authorized and certified Milestone partners around the world to create value-adding integrated solutions that video-enable security and business systems. Milestone Systems also uses the SDK internally to develop such integrated surveillance offerings as retail and transaction system loss prevention, central surveillance, and matrix solutions.

Integrations that are made using open platform Milestone IP video management provide customers with more effective solutions for handling security and business demands. For example, by combining video with Point-of-Sales systems, retailers manage loss and shrinkage through video evidence displayed simultaneously with transaction information from the register. When biometrics and access control systems operate together with surveillance, verification is possible on who is actually entering (compared to problems with stolen access cards or tailgating which is slipping in behind someone else when a door is opened) along with sending an alert for faster response by security personnel.

Some of the Milestone partners who use the SDK include Agent VI, Cernium Corporation, CheckPoint, Cognimatics, CNL, IBM, John Lay Electronics, Johnson Controls, JVC Professional, Keeneo, KeyProcessor, Lextech Labs, MATE, MobiDEOS, Netgenium, Nippon Techno Lab, ObjectVideo, OPAX, Open Options, Pango Security Systems, Paxton Access, S2 Security Corporation, Secured by Web, Seibold Security, Terma, Thomas Defense Group, Toshiba Teli, Transact Payment Systems, Tyco Fire & Security, Via:Sys and Vidient Systems.
