It is truly the next step in video management." explained Louis Liao, Director of Product Planning at VIVOTEK, "There is considerable market demand for integrated surveillance systems. However, the high barrier to entry makes it challenging to satisfy this demand. At VIVOTEK, we streamlined our solutions and processes to develop a scalable AI image analysis system to effectively resolve management issues and achieve seamless system upgrades for any user."

According to a survey report , the global video surveillance software market is estimated to be worth USD 1.9 billion. Of which, integrated surveillance systems are on the rise, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) forecast of 12.7% by 2026. Moreover, the sales of edge AI cameras continue a steady upward trend, accounting for over 40% of all network cameras shipped globally.

VSS is a new-generation network surveillance solution that culminates VIVOTEK’s superior video management software with the latest AI analysis technologies. It is conveniently divided into three editions: Lite, Standard, and Professional, to satisfy the diverse surveillance needs of the market while minimizing cost to the user. VSS Lite is the base tier and free to use, VSS Standard is designed to be cost-effective for SMEs, and VSS Professional is geared for medium to large enterprises with a high demand for 24-hour centralized management. VSS offers a range of advanced network security management tools, including data protection, comprehensive transmission and video encryption, antivirus integration, and real-time warning functionality.

VSS’s powerful AI analytics makes incident prevention and post-event evidencing a breeze.

Images are then processed using VIVOTEK’s proprietary Deep Search technology so that users can perform attribute search, scene search, and re-search across tens of thousands of cameras to accurately filter gender, age, clothing color, accessories, vehicle type or vehicle color at the click of a button.
