Rolling Cloud Updates will start on 11/12 and we plan to finish on 11/18. Users and partners will not need to do anything on their side. All new features will automatically become available on desktops, laptops, tablets, and smartphones.

Still wonder what IPTECHVIEW MxMSP/MxLINQ does for you? Read more here.

01 | UPDATE & NEW FEATURES 2021

The last year was great for us to work on the finishing touches to give you a better cloud video surveillance product. We made it easy to use by everyone that needs access to video surveillance at a customer's organization. Our new product gives your customers an awesome user experience and gives you the tools to provide top-notch ongoing support and service.

Simple and Self-Adapting

Our goal has always been to give you a cloud surveillance so intuitive that your users can easily and immediately start using it. In addition to fast and simple onboarding, users don't have to conform to the platform - instead the platform conforms to them! Personalize what to see and how to see it! Customize device and object alerts & warning thresholds to provide preemptive and proactive support.

Provide a Solution that Scales

Our platform lets you sell even small projects profitably, and let them grow to whatever size your customer needs.

Since our system requires no servers or on-premise gateway boxes this is also very attractive to larger multisite customers and allows everyone to start small and scale as needed.

We invested thousands of hours on scalability and today, we support customers with hundreds of locations, thousands of cameras, and thousands of users in countries on five continents.

MOBOTIX MOVE

We added support for new devices and added support for MOBOTIX MOVE cameras. We also further refined support for DrayTek switches, routers, and IoT devices from Kentix.

Give Customers a Future-proof Solution

Our platform helps customers expand their surveillance platform to support different access control and IoT solutions, as well as support all the system infrastructure like routers, switches.

02 | NEW FUNCTIONALITY

Single Sign-On

To make things simpler for users we added Single Sign-on with Google and Microsoft. Active Directory is also available as a premium option for accounts that need customized integration between Active Directory Grants and platform privileges.

Configuration Management Tools

One of the most important features for managing a surveillance system, be it by the in-house IT team or the reseller's support team, is configuration management. We added a complete toolbox for MOBOTIX cameras to MxMSP to make this easier.

  • MOBOTIX Camera Configuration Audit Tool - Compare and audit a camera configuration file-based on the Master config file
  • MOBOTIX Configuration Location Update Tool - Push configuration to all IoT cameras associated with a specific location at once
  • MOBOTIX Configuration Device Update Tool - Push configuration to a single IoT device
  • MOBOTIX Camera Nickname Sync Feature - Push name configured on IPTV to a single device
  • MOBOTIX Configuration Change Alert Tool - Automate configuration backups and receive alerts when a configuration has been changed/edited

See the World as Is and More

Blueprint-AR is our new floor plan view designed to work with blueprints, aerial views and offers Google satellite image integration. The AR stands for Augmented Reality since Blueprint can show non-video data like temperature, humidity, people counts, and traffic heatmaps.

03 | VERTICAL SOLUTIONS

IPTECHVIEW's platform was built to easily expand with Vertical Solution Modules. We created a special feature and made it available for MxLINQ/MxMSP as a quick response to Covid-19 with two modules to help users deploy systems to screen for elevated body temperature.

License Plate Recognition & In-Camera Analytics

Another important goal for IPTECHVIEW was to empower MOBOTIX in-camera analytics. As a first in Q2 2021, we finalized incorporating Vaxter LPR in-camera License Plate Recognition and created a first dedicated MOBOTOX in-camera analytics handling module that can alert depending on black or white lists via SMS or Email and shows license plates, car makes, and colors.

Management of white & black lists can be done centrally and single plates can be added remotely on mobile devices by users with the right administrative privilege levels to support both operation and management on mobile devices.

04 | FEATURE IMPROVEMENTS

User Interface Improvements

Improved zooming and new rotating functionality to both the live stream view and the recording player eliminated the need for in-camera dewarping and makes things even more intuitive for the casual user and the loss prevention team.

Custom Arrangement of My Camera View

The latest version adds drag & drop arrangement to the 'View Cameras' page in browser-based viewing and even phones, so each user can define his own personal camera layout.

We also added an inactivity timer and auto-logout to prevent excessive bandwidth usage and camera overloading.

05 | SNEAK PREVIEW

For those that can't wait, here's a short preview of what we expect to be released before the end of the year.

Spaces

You will soon be able to provide your users with an intuitive and customizable new dashboard to see areas of interest and access views of cameras and other information like Maps, Weather, and IoT data by areas called Spaces. *BETA Version will become available before end of the year.

We really liked how easy it was to create user-friendly layouts in MxCC and decided to bring this feature to life again on our platform for everyone.

Two-Way Audio

You kept asking for it so we finally set out to add Audio to our platform and expect a beta version in the first quarter of 2022. This feature will become available on SIP-enabled cameras and door stations on the IPTECHVIEW platform.

Customers will have two-way audio to listen to remote sites to better understand situations, where this is permitted and talk to cameras with speakers as well as other devices like pagers & door stations.
