Switch From Analog To IP Video — “The migration from analog to IP video remains one of the most significant opportunities in video surveillance. The key benefit to IP video is improved image usability with HDTV quality. IP video also turns a surveillance system into an operations tool. The cross functional use of video-based solutions into other areas of retail operations can provide visual oversight into such activities as training, stock replenishment, and even merchandise delivery. Different business units can share data and information to more effectively operate the business, while also protecting it.” — Hedgie Bartol, business development manager, retail, Axis Communications
