Sophisticated CCTV technology is now offered by Italian firm 8133 Videotec. This uses PSIM software from Digivod. The rugged and durable cameras now benefit from the sophisticated software and can be used for both indoor and outdoor applications.

The software is said to permit full control of the cameras, with night-vision capabilities available and to also have washer and wiper systems.

All cameras can be controlled through digivod clients, web browser, tablets and smartphone apps. All cameras can be controlled either from the site itself, or from headquarters of multiple sites. All cameras can be put to unlimited video walls by simple drag and drop.

The Videotec features come with the standard digivod installation, with no special libraries nor any additional costs.

Digivod is a video management and PSIM platform. It allows not only management of video, but integration of alarm systems, access control, command and control and fence systems by simple configurations. The Videotec Ulisse cameras offer a wide selection of rugged PTZ cameras, with integrated day/night and thermal ones, designed to meet every need of outdoor continuous monitoring even in difficult environmental conditions, without requiring maintenance.
