Video Management System
A Video Management System, also known as video management software or a video management server is a major component of a security camera (CCTV) system that in general:
- Collects video from cameras and other sources
- Records / stores that video to a storage device
- Provides an interface to both view the live video, and access recorded video
“Basically a Video Management System will deliver intelligent software for the operations and functions related to Video Surveillance hardware on an IP backed network. Through this feature an opportunity is created to integrate other components of corporate security program as well. The Internet Protocol has drastically changed the role and capacity of Video Management system in Surveillance field.”
A VMS is the software component of a network video recorder and digital video recorder and tends to be more sophisticated; providing more options and capabilities than a standard NVR device. These capabilities include:
- Intruder alert
- Loitering detection
- Vehicle License plate detection
- Human traffic monitoring
- Abandoned/suspicious object detection
- Camera tamper alert
- Automatic notification of authorities
- Vandalism / suspicious activity alert
- Facial recognition
- And more….
