AXIS Video Hosting System (AVHS) is a platform for creating a service provider-specific portal to manage video monitoring services over the Internet. Connect Axis network video products to a local area network at monitored sites and the AVHS system will provide easy and secure Internet access to live and recorded video accessible from any location.
The system is easily scalable and the number of sites and camera installations are limited only by disk space, bandwidth and system configuration. It allows for easy administration of multiple user accounts and permission levels, as well as user-specific camera settings. Support for H.264 video compression significantly reduces the need for Internet bandwidth without compromising image quality. To save bandwidth and storage the software supports scheduled and event-driven recordings initiated by motion or external inputs. Manual recording can be defined directly in the service portals live view interface and event notifications can be received via email, or SMS. AVHS includes recording search functions with calendar visualization and export functionality, and navigation tools that provide quick access to cameras and recordings. The system also supports control of PTZ cameras. The software is developed with focus on ease-of-use and intuitive handling. The user interface is easy to customize to meet service provider requirements and graphic identity. The patent pending One-Click Camera connection feature makes it easy to include cameras in the system regardless of internet service provider, routers and firewall settings.
