Video Solutions Thanks to IP
Just as the Internet has revolutionized the way that people share
information, data networks are transforming the cost and
convenience of delivering video for applications ranging from security,
monitoring, and medical to machine vision and so-called “web
attractions”. With IP (Internet Protocol) as the “native language” of the
internet, it is becoming increasingly easier, flexible and more cost
effective than ever for businesses to survey, monitor and act on video
images from any location, however remote.
 From Analog

 This
to Digital with Sony
Recognizing the impact that networks are having on users of video
everywhere, Sony is offering a new generation of solutions that make
the networked transmission and management of video a reality.
These solutions enable the user to switch from analog to digital,
enabling the capture, transmission and storage of video signals in
digital format.
module details the solutions available for transmitting and
controlling video over a TCP/IP network.

Solutions for Video Monitoring over
IP




Video monitoring over IP consists of transmitting and controlling
video over a TCP/IP network*.
It offers a number of advantages compared to analog video
monitoring as explained in a later slide.
Solutions for video monitoring over IP are aimed at three main
application areas:
 Web attractions
 Surveillance
 Remote monitoring
SONY offers 2 types of IP Network camera
 SNC-VL10N and SNC-VL10P
 SNC-RZ30N (Pan / Tilt / Zoom camera )
* Please refer to Basic Training on IP technology - part 1.

Applications of Video Monitoring Over
IP


The three main application areas targeted can be defined as following:
 E-Surveillance -The merging of the analog and digital worlds is
particularly relevant to surveillance applications, where existing
CCTV systems are being integrated into the IT environment,
enriching them with new functions and greater flexibility at a lower
cost.
 Web attractions - Posting real-time images on a network (very
often the Internet) is making websites very popular.
 Remote monitoring - Enabling processes taking place in your
professional environment (factory, construction work, etc.) to be
viewed while working from home or at your office desk.

IP The Network Camera Function




A network camera is a video camera that contains a
compression circuit and a computer with a TCP/IP interface.
It is a stand alone unit with its own IP address that can be
directly connected to the network without the need for a
separate computer.
Normally it has a built-in web server, while also supporting a
number of network protocols like FTP, SMTP (e-mail), DHCP,
SNMP etc.*
A network camera is much superior to a web-cam!
 A web-cam or internet camera requires a PC and specific
software, and the web-cam and PC need to be placed close
together.

Sony solutions suit a wide variety of applications for Video over IP,
allowing you to monitor and manage networked video devices easily via
a PC and web browser or application software.
The following slides explain how these Sony solutions can be used for
your application while connected to any public or private network– the
Internet or corporate intranets:
 E-Surveillance: Parking lots, hotel lobbies, reception areas,
warehouses, access control for staff, surveillance of private property
such as villas, yachts…
 Web attractions: Ski resorts, hotels, city centers, zoos, theme parks,
concerts, sports events, world weather reports, road traffic…
 Remote Monitoring: Access control of computer and server rooms,
construction work, production lines, nursery, child care, animal
conditions, queues at cashier...
“E-Surveillance” Applications


Sony IP cameras are ideal for sharing high-quality video streams over
computer networks to provide 24-hour security.
The video can be monitored and controlled from a PC through a
standard web browser or by using dedicated application software.

“Web Attraction” Applications



10
The attractiveness of a web site can be further increased by
quality live video that will capture the eye and enhance the
imagination.
Posting real-time images on a network is what makes the web
attractive and popular these days.
Example how to implement your web attraction:
 Connect a network camera (SNC-VL10N or SNC-RZ30N) to
the ISP (Internet Service Provider) who is hosting your web
site.
 The network camera/server connects with the ISP to transfer a
new image at regular intervals via FTP (File Transfer
CameraThe
control
Protocol).
interval determines how ‘real-time’ the images
are that are transmitted to
the whole Internet community.

“Remote Monitoring” Application

Remote Monitoring covers a wide range of applications. A
typical example is remote control of access to secured areas
like telephone exchanges, assembly lines or server rooms.
 As soon as a service engineer pushes the door bell, the
operator receives a warning and can visually verify if the
engineer is authorised to enter the room.
 The operator can now unlock the door and subsequently
monitor the engineer’s activities.
 Factory assembly line can be monitored by center station.

Since SONY IP cameras incorporate built-in web-server, you
need just a standard browser such as Internet Explorer or
Netscape Navigator on the client side.
User friendly GUI (graphic user interface) allows you to control
all camera and sever functions from client PC.
