Radvision has announced that its technology is being used in an advanced 3G access and control system for home surveillance developed by CESTEL, a major Spanish system integrator and service provider and deployed by Securitas Direct. The initial deployment targets an installation base of 7,000 households throughout
Spain. Home cameras, connected to the security system via ADSL can be accessed by 3G subscribers, who are called when a manual or automatic alarm triggers the system. The 3G subscriber may also dial-in to the system and obtain direct access to the home surveillance camera whenever desired. The cameras and other electrically controlled devices such as doors, gates and alarms can be activated by the number pad on the 3G mobile phone. Utilising the camera’s built in speaker and microphone, the solution enables 3G subscribers to verbally communicate with the actual location where the camera is set. The 3G integration application, developed by CESTEL with their 3G Builder product and Radvision’s SCOPIA Interactive Video Platform, is based on network and device-agnostic infrastructure that enables remote cameras to be accessed and operated by any 3G handset.
