Vicon Annual Sales Meeting October 2009 ViconNet ViconNet Road Map Summary

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Kollectors Strike and Force Update old DVRs to next generation encoder-DVR low profile (1 and 3 rack unit) Low power Option for no hard drive (solid state) coming soon H.264 ready

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Packaging Kollector Strike is based on the Kollector Lite hardware in a 1U chassis (no back panel) Kollector Force is based on the Kollector Elite hardware in a 3U chassis (full back panel) Force has 1 VGA and 1 DVI/HDMI display The internal RAID version is still in the 4U chassis to fit the removable drives

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Expected Difference The new Kollectors have great picture resolution and quality One difference from the Elite is lack of direct display that might be interpreted as lower picture quality when comparing side by side to an Elite Picture on viewer of any kind is the same or better

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 ViconNet 5.6 ViconNet 5.6 is to be released by the end of this month and includes: Support for Strike and Force Kollectors Event management system Support for I-onyx 970 licensing VMD from I-onyx 9xx, ACTI, Vivotek and Sony 3 rd party cameras

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Version 5.6 status Version 5.6 is considered a patch for ViconNet 5.x and will not require re- license from any former 5.x version Version 5.6 will work on old and new devices (KE / KP / KL Strike and Force)

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Even though the older KPX and KLX will now work as hybrid, it is NOT recommended to use them as such due to old hardware performance. It is highly likely those will not perform well as hybrid

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Events Management New system built into ViconNet (DVRs, NVRs and WS not on VMC or VN-64) Uses an SQL database for event storage Allows receiving events from external systems in TCP/IP format Includes full tool-kit for event filtering, classifying, storage and search Ties ViconNet video with “any” event generator Requires License to operate

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Event Management Uses The events management system can be used in any situation where ViconNet video can compliment an external system ViconNet will offer or an open source XML driver can be used by other to send events Drivers can be developed by us for A specific system (requires approval) External system event data is sent to ViconNet which stores it with relevant video and allows processing it

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 EM example 1 Integration with Inex / Zamir license plate recognition system LPR reads the plate, compares to its database and send an event to ViconNet ViconNet stores the events data, plate thumbnail and correlates the correct camera to lane Operator can have cameras display or go to preset on event and can also search the events for a specific plate or event Search option allows playing back the video and exporting a text report that can be send forward

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 EM example 2 Integration with Hirsch access control Replacing the 3 rd party software used Access control system sends the event to ViconNet via XML ViconNet stores the events data, a thumbnail from the door camera and correlates the correct camera to door Operator can have cameras display or go to preset on event (like access denied) and can also search the events for a specific event Search option allows playing back the video and exporting a text report that can be sent forward

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009

Web Browser Create a web browser viewer software Self loading by browser (no installation) View and control any camera Allow remote connectivity over the Internet from “any” browser Plan to support non-Microsoft browsers Plan to support mobile device browser

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 H.264 Compression in DVRs In Kollector Strike and Force Becoming the standard compression Requires faster DSP as well as stronger PC for the same number of channels to be displayed Offers significant savings on bandwidth and storage V6 will support both ViconNet and H.264 compression where H.264 will be at half the FPS

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Improved Video Decoder Development of a PC-based video decoder instead of a DSP-based VGA and DVI output (no BNC) Support for H.264 and HD images More pictures on every output Development flexibility (PC platform) In V6 we still offer KRX-3

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Basic standalone configuration: One monitor running VMC application Map GUI can run on another monitor Additional monitors used for multiple video displays Cameras can be called up into any of the monitors using the GUI / keypad / PLC

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Local display configuration: One monitor running VMC application + local video Map GUI can run on another monitor Additional monitors used for multiple video displays Cameras can be called up into any of the monitors using the GUI / keypad / PLC

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 PCRX decoder only configuration: No VMC or map GUI running locally Unit must be controlled by VMC (somewhere on the network) All monitors used for multiple video display Cameras can be called up into any of the monitors

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009

Product Packaging This product requires very specific software and hardware to run properly Vicon will offer hardware with different monitor out options (2, 4, 6) Application as well as monitors will have a license fee for those who want to build their own

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Limitations VMC software and local display can run on XP or Vista O.S. PCRX display requires Windows 7 Detailed performance and camera counts will be provided (more cameras displayed, lower FPS per camera) Local display on VMC can only be used from the VMC itself and not as a decoder output from another VMC

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 New Video Encoder 4-channel real-time H.264 only encoder D1 on every channel Newer and faster DSP chip Competitive price-per-channel

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Macro on CFN Event Added functionality allows running a macro when a CFN event is generated Macro is mostly for notification but can be display or preset This solves the need for notification when site is down

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Video Segment Lock Allows the system to protect event related video from being overwritten by system FIFO Creates a separate database that will store the video segment around an alarm event before being FIFO Video will remain in main DB until FIFO and then move to the “vault”

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 ViconNet 7.0 Version 7 is scheduled for late 2010: Map enhancements!!!!!! IT compliance enhancements Multicast DVRs Active directory Auto-archiving of video

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Map Enhancements Map centric application PTZ control from maps Video on maps Alarm indication on map icons Camera position indication Absolute position feedback from dome

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 IT Compliance Enhancements Allow the transmission of video in Multicast mode for lower bandwidth networks from any device Support existing standard network formats as well as new TCP/IP standards (IPV6) Integrate with Microsoft Active Directory for user management

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Auto Archiving of Video Allow automatic archives of video from the ViconNet system FIFO database to a permanent storage location Support archive on schedule

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Compatibility Version 4, 5 and 6 are compatible in their core functionality Taking advantage of new features requires updating the software The ability to carry this compatibility into version 7 is still not clear Thoughts?

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 SMS Updated Integration Latest SMS update was done to resolve the need to disable NIC in a multiple NIC computer A NIC selection tool was made available allowing selecting which NIC is to be used

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Satellite Applications Agent-VI VI-Search Briefcam

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Agent-VI Updated the integration to allow using a dome in presets for analytics This is NOT tracking Eliminates the need for external DSP Beta in Mexico this month Updated pricing for bundles will be sent as Sales Alert Soon to have a standalone NVR + Analytics for small jobs

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 VI-Search New concept for searching video post event Video is analyzed real-time and allows extremely fast search on all analytics criteria: direction, speed, size… Integration with ViconNet will use live and recorded video from ViconNet Will be sold with or without live detection Sales Alert will include details

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Briefcam Synopsis Integrates with ViconNet video to map events by motion on the fly Displays all events on the same screen and “flattens” the time line All objects are shown at same time, allowing to click one and change to actual time This is not a search tool as much as a display concept

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 ViconNet and H.264 ViconNet supports 3 rd party H.264 since V5.0 release Kollector Strike and Force have the hardware to support H.264 or ViconNet encoding when V6 will be released (ViconNet only by then) The new KTX-4 will be H.264 only

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Kollector H.264 Facts Kollector Strike and Force will allow the user to select either ViconNet or H.264 compression for the unit (not per channel) In H.264 the Kollector will have half the FPS than in ViconNet If H.264 is intended for use, the correct FPS model for H.264 will need to be purchased in advance (starting V6 this will be the base model structure) Kollectors sold until V6 will be upgradable but will produce half the FPS in H.264

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Example Kollector (Strike or Force) purchased with V5.6 with 240 FPS and upgraded to V6 will have either 240 FPS ViconNet or 120 FPS H.264

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 H.264 is Here H.264 compression is also known as: MPEG-4 AVC MPEG-4 Part 10 Main development objective was to get a high quality image in a lower bit rate then MPEG-2 Actually ended up as a family of standards as other layers were added

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 H.264 Profiles Since the original standard release, many different profiles have been created on top of the standard: Constrained Baseline Profile (CBP) Baseline Profile (BP) Main Profile (MP) Extended Profile (XP) High Profile (HiP) High 10 Profile (Hi10P) High 4:2:2 Profile (Hi422P) High 4:4:4 Predictive Profile (Hi444PP) High Stereo Profile High 10 Intra Profile High 4:2:2 Intra Profile High 4:4:4 Intra Profile CAVLC 4:4:4 Intra Profile Scalable Baseline Profile Scalable High Profile Scalable High Intra Profile

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Estimated Savings The original design was to allow cutting bit rate to half of MPEG-4 Actual results reported average to: 3-4 times lower then MPEG times lower then MJPEG 2-3 times lower then ViconNet This assumes average motion over time

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Estimated Challenges H.264 compression, and even the different profiles, produce different bit rate in different cameras (threshold levels and sensitivity) Decoding (from bits to display) is much more processor intensive and requires stronger PC / display hardware

VICON ANNUAL SALES MEETING, OCTOBER 2009 Buzz Words Vicon uses TI (Texas Instruments) DSPs and their recommended H.264 codec; these have been optimized to work together ViconNet uses standard video decoder (software) and supports standard H.264 Vicon adapts its sold hardware to maximize compatibility and optimize processing
