Synectic Systems Group Ltd (Synectics) has joined the Open Network Video Interface Forum (ONVIF) and the Physical Security Interoperability Alliance (PSIA) demonstrating its commitment to the development and adoption of open standards for the interface of all IP enabled security and surveillance devices.
ONVIF is a global and open industry forum for the development of a global open standard for the interface of network video products. Founded in 2008 by Axis Communications, Bosch Security Systems and Sony Corporation, ONVIF is committed to the adoption of network video in the security market. The forum already has more than 55 members, representing several of the worlds’ largest manufacturers of network video products. “We are happy to welcome Synectics into ONVIF,” says Ken Iwasaki in ONVIF’s Steering Committee. It is great to see the growing interest from solution providers from all parts of the world.”
The PSIA was conceived in February 2008, with the objective of promoting the interoperability of IP enabled security devices, and the creation and promotion of broad industry adoption of specifications that provide interchangeability and ease of use of physical security products to the benefit of the end user. David Bunzel, the Executive Director of the PSIA, comments, “We are pleased to have Synectics join our alliance. Synectics has established a position as a technology leader in the physical security industry and joining the PSIA shows the growing interest in our organisation and its initiatives in international markets.” Through this membership Synectics will participate in the development of open standards and the recommendation and support of standards for the physical security industry. They will be participating in three of the Technical Working Groups;
