Videosoft Global has provided real-time Rapid Deployment cameras to the Wimbledon Championships, with the aim of stepping up security operations.
According to the company, Videosoft are leaders in real-time video surveillance solutions for government operations and local authorities, serving up real-time video for large public events using the lowest possible bandwidth.
Offering greater flexibility than traditional video management systems, Rapid Deployment cameras combined with real-time visuals are revolutionising large-scale public event management such as this.
“Securing one of the biggest sporting events in the world isn’t easy,” said Stewart McCone, CEO at Videosoft Global.
“Thankfully, Videosoft Global compression technology offers seamless connectivity via satellite and wireless cellular networks – ensuring smooth real-time video feeds no matter how congested the network is.
“As the first step towards Wimbledon’s ambitious expansion plans, real-time video is providing local authorities and governments around the world with limitless opportunities.”
With the RDS-900 unit positioned at the entrance of Centre Court, Merton Council can ensure the wellbeing of the local community and all visitors to Wimbledon, no matter the network conditions.
Quick and easy to install, the Videosoft RDS-900 Pole Camera streams low latency real-time video to the control room VMS over 3G/4G cellular networks.
Often the case at busy sporting events when cellular towers become congested, sharing bandwidth with multiple devices in one area can severely interrupt internet speed and critical data transmission.
Able to switch between mesh and cellular networks with ease, leading public surveillance solutions from Videosoft Global create secure, low-bandwidth networks to keep critical communication flowing as events unfold.
