ASIS 2014 Show Floor Review

By: IPVM Team, Published on Sep 30, 2014

What Happened to the New Products?

Nothing major at all. Disappointing.

Lots of new recorder boxes, for some reason. Axis is now in the box business (OEMing Dell), joining Milestone's DVR. Also, Avigilon looks to be OEMing Dynacolor/Razberi.

We'd love to be able to highlight big, novel, impactful moves, but this is the least we have ever seen. This is not a good sign for the industry.

How would IPVM feel about members who are at ASIS meeting IPVM staff at the show?

John Honovich

IPVM | In reply to Vasiles Kiosses | 09/16/14 10:41am

That's encouraged. Derek, Ethan and Marty will be spending a lot of time on the show floor.

"ASIS actually is putting meeting rooms on the show floor in that space, like so:"

This is good, saved me a lot of money. Instead of buying a booth, I just emailed a bunch of potential clients and told them to meet me in the big empty "meeting space" in the front right corner of the floor. I think I'll bring in a couple of pop-up banner stands to make it easier to spot.

Rodney Thayer

In reply to Undisclosed #2 | 10/08/14 06:50pm

meeting rooms on the show floor sucked if they were open above due to the noise of the show floor. on the other hand, the meeting rooms "over in building C" were 3 or 4 time zones away.

Check out the "partners" at the Milestone booth - some interesting stuff among the chaff, like the Promise VessApp recorder platform...

John Honovich

IPVM | In reply to Undisclosed Manufacturer #3 | 09/30/14 09:24am

I wonder whom Undisclosed C works for? Oh Promise.

This is an undisclosed promotion, pretty easy to see through.

Cool videos IPVM, keep up the good work...almost like I was there.

Andrew Lee

Bummer, I didn't run into Derek, Ethan or Marty while there today. Only came for one day of exhibits then headed back to Florida. The coverage above pretty much summed it up.

Carlos Espinoza

I was today in the show. I think this year looks better than previous one in Chicago, not as good as ISCWest 2014.

What do you think about the new 8.3MP Arecont Vision Camera?

As I saw in the 4K TV monitor they use I didn't see UHD video.

What I found interesting was the Parking CCTV+Access Control Solution that Dahua is showing. (You can find where is your car easily and also can track if someone is parking in place where it's now allowed)

Also did you notice that 1000TV Lines analog cameras that Samsung is selling? Can someone explain me how they improve the signal? It's even better than when you connect the analog composite video terminal from a HDSDI camera.

John Honovich

IPVM | In reply to Carlos Espinoza | 09/30/14 09:27am

Carlos,

Since Arecont has been selling 10MP cameras for 5 years or so, I don't think much about them going 'down' to 8.3MP.

In general, we are not that bullish about 4K but we certainly will test as they begin to ship.

As for Samsung, do you mean their 1280H 'Analog Beyond' Cameras? We bought them last week and will start testing them after the show. We'll know more than.

Thanks for the Dahua recommendation. We'll check it out today.

Miles One ?!!

the entire brand name (including the VMS) has changed to Miles One ? or the Hybrid Recorder?

John Honovich

IPVM | In reply to nidal gharzeddine | 09/30/14 09:29am

The 'T' presumably feel down.

Greg Austin

09/30/14 09:21am

My feelings after a very full day walking the entire floor: Meh.

Not going back today... (of course, we are local).

[Martin is the CEO of SmartVue]

Is the Axis S10 one better than the Smartvue S9 or two worse than the new Smartvue S12 announced yesterday?

John Honovich

IPVM | In reply to Martin Renkis | 09/30/14 11:33am

The Axis S10 was worth covering because it is from Axis and industry people want details / clarification of what Axis is doing.

I am really curious about the Smartvue - Hikvision partnership, about a year ago I told one of your salesman he should work on integrating Hikvision with your platform. Feel free to contact me.

Martin Renkis

Smartvue at Johnson Controls | In reply to John Bazyk | 10/01/14 02:54am

Thanks for the interest John. We are excited about the partnership. You will hear from your Smartvue rep tonight!

I just got an email flyer from Digital Watchdog about new panoramic cameras. In the picture on the email, it looks like the Secubest camera announced here a few months ago.

DW panoramic camera press release...

The link to the press release seems to also describe a movable sensor panoramic similar to Arecont's omni.

John Honovich

IPVM | In reply to Luis Carmona | 09/30/14 11:43am

Yes, good eye, same Secubest unit we covered a few months ago.

There's also a 32MP / 4 x 4K model that we are still getting more information on.

Acrobot girl.

Magicians.

Caricatures.

Is anyone doing a "guess your weight" booth schtick? Or if you hear of a booth where I can win a giant stuffed panda please let me know ASAP.

John Grocke

09/30/14 10:34pm

I haven't seen Marty, Ethan or Derek there yet, but it is a pretty big place with lots of people. IPVM should have a booth, seems there are plenty of spaces available.

John Honovich

IPVM | In reply to John Grocke | 09/30/14 10:37pm

"IPVM should have a booth, seems there are plenty of spaces available."

ASIS 2015 - Honovich dunk tank.

I have thought about booths, but it would conflict with our priority to report on news and issues from the show.

Meghan Uhl

In reply to John Honovich | 10/07/14 07:05pm

But a booth whose soul purpose is to let attendee's take a load off thier feet (lots of chairs) and discuss what they've been seeing with IPVM staff and other attendee's might be helpful to everyone. And, from the looks of your report, it would be the most impressive booth there! Thanks for the report John - glad I didn't go :)

Maybe they are at the Viscount booth getting a free lunch.
