VIVOTEK and AxxonSoft — Integrated Surveillance & Analytics Solution

Quick Overview and Key Benefits of AxxonSoft + VIVOTEK Camera Integration

What Makes the Partnership Unique

AxxonSoft provides full integration for VIVOTEK security cameras and NVRs delivering extensive functionality inside AxxonSoft’s platforms (Axxon One, Axxon PSIM). Integration supports VIVOTEK’s advanced features: Smart Stream, Panoramic PTZ (PPTZ), video analytics (VCA), counting cameras, and more. Joint solutions from both companies enhance versatility, performance, and business value for integrators and end-users.

Key Advantages

AxxonSoft + VIVOTEK cameras joint solutions deliver:

• Smart-streamlined video: On-camera Smart Stream reduces bandwidth and storage use while keeping image quality where it matters.
• Comprehensive analytics at the edge: On-camera Smart VCA and counting tools enable intrusion, crowd, loitering, object-abandonment detection — reducing false alarms and server load.
• Wide-area coverage + detailed tracking: Panoramic PTZ (fisheye + speed-dome) plus Tag&Track lets you monitor entire zones and zoom in on specific objects or persons.
• Scalable & flexible architecture: Supports VIVOTEK IP cameras, VIVOTEK NVR / video-servers, and allows large, hierarchical multi-camera/multi-site deployments.
• Efficient event management & search: Metadata from VCA and people counting feeds into AxxonSoft for reliable alarm handling and quick forensic search.
• Lower total cost of ownership: Bandwidth/storage savings via Smart Stream, reduced backend server load via on-camera analytics → less infrastructure needed.

How It Works

The AxxonSoft platforms integrate tightly with core VIVOTEK cameras and NVR capabilities:

• On-camera video analytics (Smart VCA and people counting) execute directly in VIVOTEK devices; detected events (intrusion, crowd, loitering, etc.) become native triggers in AxxonSoft.
• Smart Stream from VIVOTEK reduces video stream bitrate by encoding full resolution only for regions of interest or motion objects; background uses lower baseline resolution — saving bandwidth and storage while maintaining detail.
• Panoramic PTZ (PPTZ) merges 360°/180° fisheye overview with a speed-dome’s zoom. Additionally, AxxonSoft’s Tag&Track feature allows automatic or semi-automatic tracking of moving objects with paired fixed and speed-dome cameras for wide-area surveillance + detailed follow-up.
• When VIVOTEK NVR or video servers are used, AxxonSoft becomes the central monitoring and management hub — handling live view, recording, playback, event triggers, and multi-camera/multi-site control.

Feature Integration Details

Panoramic PTZ and Tag&Track with Vivotek 360 Camera

AxxonSoft has integrated VIVOTEK’s Panoramic PTZ (PPTZ) feature, allowing users to monitor an area overview from VIVOTEK 360 degree cameras while simultaneously providing the capability for a detailed regional view from a VIVOTEK speed dome. Moreover, Axxon One and Axxon PSIM users can take advantage of the Tag&Track Pro feature, which enables the labeling and tracking of moving objects, whether selected manually or detected automatically, using VIVOTEK fixed security cameras for overviews and the speed dome cameras for zoomed, detailed views of the tracked objects.

Smart Stream

Smart Stream allows users to reduce bandwidth consumption and storage requirements of video from VIVOTEK cameras by using full resolution only for predefined areas in the field of view — either regions of interest or automatically detected moving objects — while utilizing a lower baseline resolution for background areas of no interest for the surveillance application. Integration of Smart Stream with Axxon One and Axxon PSIM allows users of the VMS to gain the benefits of this advanced feature.

Video Content Analysis

VIVOTEK Smart VCA and people counting tools are next-generation video analytics running on VIVOTEK cameras for security applications. The on-board Smart VCA suite includes Intrusion Detection, Loitering Detection, Line Crossing Detection, Unattended Object Detection, Missing Object Detection, Face Detection, and Crowd Detection. The 3D people counting cameras provide high accuracy and multiple formats for counting analysis.

As humans are the objects of interest in most video surveillance applications, the people detection feature enables users to quickly configure their installation. With people detection, only human activities will serve as event triggers, while swaying vegetation, vehicles passing by, or animal activities in the scene will be ignored. This helps reduce false alarms, as well as the time and effort needed for camera configuration.

AxxonSoft products integrate VIVOTEK’s Video Content Analysis technology (such as Standard VCA, Smart VCA, and Counting Camera), which helps reduce system loading on analytics and provides efficient event and alarm management for additional search functions.

VIVOTEK NVR Integration

Axxon One and Axxon PSIM are intuitive professional video/central management software products that support VIVOTEK IP surveillance products, as well as the VIVOTEK Network Video Recorder series, for hundreds of cameras and stations in a hierarchical system structure for monitoring, recording, playback and event trigger management with effortless control. Through the integration of the VIVOTEK NVR series, AxxonSoft software works as a Central Monitoring System that ensures ease of use when working with VIVOTEK NVRs.
