Barco Collaborative Visualization

Genetec and Barco provide an integrated solution for control room visualization

Barco and Genetec have a long-standing proven history of cooperation and software integration. This integration is based on their latest software platforms to maximize value for the joint customer community: View Better, Share Faster, Resolve Quicker.

Operators in control rooms use the Security Center task-based interface for easy management of the Barco CMS-powered video walls or displays. Through the Barco CMS task, the operator can select pre-configured CMS perspectives on Barco video walls – a perspective being a grouping of sources providing situational awareness. The operator can preview the particular perspective prior to launching it on the display wall, as well as edit the perspective on the fly. The common operational picture on the video wall is easily tuned based on the current events, increasing situational awareness, without any need for additional training. Installation and integration time is minimized through easy setup and automated database synchronization.

Security & transportation market

With security threats ever increasing, the only way to avoid chaos is good data gathering, monitoring, and planning. This makes transport and surveillance centers not only more important but also more complex. The results are higher demands on every aspect of the visualization systems, from displays to software.

Barco's products visually present real-time signals coming from highway sensors, vehicle GPS systems, CCTV cameras and other intelligent systems, to the operators, allowing them to dispatch emergency-response vehicles, anticipate traffic delays and divert traffic to alternate routes more efficiently.

Barco’s networked visualization platform allows the flexible distribution of a virtually unlimited number of video and data sources - not only within the facility but worldwide using the existing TCP/IP network. Open wall-management software guarantees seamless integration with today's leading monitoring solutions.
