Subscribeioimage chosen as CMI’s first video analytics partner
Denton, Texas November 20th, 2007 – ioimage, the pioneer of intelligent video appliances designed for simplicity, announced today that it has signed a distribution agreement with CMI Inc., a leading Canadian channel management company of security and IT products throughout Canada.
Video Encoders And IP Cameras With Built-In Video Analytics
As part of the agreement, CMI Inc. will offer its customers ioimage’s off-the-shelf intelligent video encoders and IP cameras with built-in video analytics. CMI’s client base spans Canada and includes security systems integrators, architects & engineers, and IT security professionals.
CMI Inc. currently represents more than a dozen vendors, offering products and solutions such as smart cards, content filtering, identify validation, network access control and email security. ioimage is CMI’s sole video analytics vendor and has already facilitated successful deployments of ioimage’s solutions throughout Canada in the critical infrastructure and government markets.
Earlier this month, CMI Inc., in conjunction with one of its resellers, hosted a breakfast seminar in Ottawa, Quebec to demonstrate to government security end users how to set up and deploy ioimage’s video analytics in 5 easy steps. The seminar included tips and pitfalls when deploying video analytics and a live product demonstration.
ioimage's Solutions
“ioimage represents the first video analytics solutions for CMI Inc. customers and an expansion of our physical security product offering line,” said Karen Letain, president of CMI Inc. “By adding ioimage’s solutions, we can now offer our value added resellers reliable, yet easy to install intelligent video systems demanded by the security market.”
ioimage’s line of intelligent video appliances includes video encoders and IP cameras that enable installers to deploy easy-to-use plug-and-play video analytics with minimal effort. ioimage’s off-the-shelf solutions make them ideal for retrofitting existing installations and installing new systems.
Initially designed for high-risk security applications, such as nuclear power facilities and the military, ioimage has brought its video analytics appliances to the mainstream market with systems that have been deployed by car dealerships, manufacturing facilities, utilities and retail operations.
