Author: John Honovich, Published on Dec 15, 2015

This is good news for the industry, for those wanting simpler integration and for the much battered PSIM market.

As part of Milestone's XProtect 2016 release, Milestone is adding an "ONVIF Bridge" that allows video to be sent from Milestone's XProtect VMS to third parties using ONVIF.
