Gallagher Security teams with EyeLynx to add Full-HD VMS
solution for Command Centre integrations
Gallagher Security has extended the range of video management systems
(VMS) which can integrate into its ubiquitous access and control solution.
EyeLynx has now developed a plug-in to integrate its SharpView NVR with the
Gallagher Command Centre.
Specifically, this integration allows security managers operating a Gallagher
Command Centre for site control to view the high-end recording capabilities of
SharpView all in one place.
Security operators can respond swiftly and appropriately to any security
threats through the real-time display of outputs from complementary security
and site management solutions
defined uniquely for their site.
SharpView offers full-resolution
recording and remote monitoring
from an unlimited number of HD
CCTV cameras. It’s in use at highsecurity
water, utilities and
education sites and is praised by the
Metropolitan Police Service.

OPTEX Europe issues upgraded
version of VX Shield sensor
OPTEX Europe has launched an enhanced
version of its best-selling sensor across
Europe, namely the VX Shield, with a new
housing design and features that make it
even easier to install.
The outdoor intrusion detector, which
provides 12 metre x 90 degree detection
coverage, now includes a rotation lock to
make it easier to open/close the cover.
Sensor adjustment components are also
identified in blue to make it obvious which
parts allow manipulation of the sensor
detection area. This renders the sensor
easier to adjust. A spirit level has also been
incorporated, while an automatic ‘walk test’
mode kick-starts upon closing the cover.

B-Cam’s Compact camera range
packs power into small frame
B-Cam – a leading supplier of body-worn
security cameras for the military, Government,
police and security solutions providers around
the world – has just unveiled its new Compact
camera as the latest product in the company’s
range of surveillance systems.
The Compact model packs plenty of power
into its 110 mm by 60 mm frame, with over
eight hours of continuous recording and the
ability for end users to record in 480p, 720p
(HD), 1080p (FHD) or 2000p (2K resolution).
Compact cameras are capable of both low-light and infrared recording, and
are supplied with a rear 2” configurable display screen. The units are
waterproof and boast a memory of up to 64 GB.
Impressively, these new cameras weigh just 170g. That’s less than half a
small loaf of bread.
B-Cam is at the forefront of delivering body-worn camera solutions to police
services, operatives in the National Health Service, shopping centres, football
clubs and security-related events globally where high quality audio and video
recordings are captured and used to facilitate evidence management
procedures during criminal and/or anti-social incidents.
Herman Vermaak, managing director of B-Cam, informed Risk UK: “B-Cam is
all about trying to support the people who help to keep us safe and secure. The
B-Cam Compact affords security professionals the surveillance capabilities they
need in a package that will not weigh them down. The Compact camera is a
highly visible visual deterrent to potential trouble-makers.”
With a configurable display screen and different resolution options, the B-
Cam Compact affords end users plenty of operational options.
Vermaak concluded: “The B-Cam Compact may be small, but it’s capable of
powerful things.”

Invixium integrates with Paxton’s
established Net2 Access Control
Paxton has announced the integration of its
networked access control system, Net2, with
Invixium’s biometric software, designated IXM
WEB. The integration allows for real-time
synchronisation between the two applications,
removing the need to enter user data in two
places and dramatically reducing set-up time.
The integration provides customers with the
benefit of expanding their access control offer
with a biometric solution. From installation to
adding new users, the Net2 and IXM WEB
integration has been carefully scripted.
