6873 AMG Systems, the British manufacturer of CCTV transmission solutions and sophisticated 5 Megapixel cameras, has entered an agreement with Norbain SD.

The agreement will see AMG’s PanoCam360 series of 5 MP cameras integrated into Norbain’s product range and marketed to all major Systems Integrators in the UK. The units are said to be highly versatile and durable and can give an overview of a large area without blind spots and to reduce the number of cameras required for total coverage. AMG designs and manufactures intelligent cameras which dewarp the fisheye images inside the camera. The firm produces multiple simultaneous dewarped streams, without the need for remote software for live viewing. It also provides a dewarping SDK, which is integrated with many of the global VMS manufacturers, together with ONVIF Profile-S certification.

In transportation applications, a single camera can cover a wide area. Using 360 cameras allows a customer to reduce the camera count and the overall CCTV infrastructure, cabling, recording channels, which adds up to a significant cost saving.

The PanoCam360 is already integrated with both Milestone and Wavestore VMS software, both of which Norbain is also marketing.

    At what point does ‘some technology’ become ‘enough technology’? Less than four years ago industry publications were filled with a persistent message, the reluctance of UK based contractors to adopt machine control to the same extent as near European neighbours, particularly close ones such as Ireland and Holland. However from 2009 onwards we have seen a huge shift in demand for machine control as the success of high profile road and rail jobs such as the M25 widening scheme and Airdrie – Bathgate rail
