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

"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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.
