Author: IPVM Team, Published on Jun 21, 2016

Smart codecs are one of the most important emerging surveillance technology trends.

Axis was the first, launching Zipstream in Spring 2015 but was quickly followed by Hikvision H.264+, Panasonic Smart Coding and more every month.

Now, Axis is pushing forward with its next generation smart codec that has the potential to further reduce bandwidth by another 50%.

In this report, we examine what Axis is doing, its potential impact and how it matches up against competitors like Avigilon and Hikvision..
