OnSSI announces VMS integration with Samsung cameras

The integration leverages the capabilities of the Samsung Unified Network Application Programming Interface (SUNAPI), to enable control and management of surveillance video from WiseNet Lite cameras using the Ocularis 5 platform.

Samsung has implemented SUNAPI (Samsung Unified Network Application Programming Interface), a common API across their range of network products such as IP cameras, encoders, and network video recorders. SUNAPI makes it possible to release new cameras to customers much faster while maintaining a very deep-level integration. One API document can be used to reach all products.

Commands are straightforward, from configuring camera settings to retrieving device status, to searching for and retrieving video.

Ocularis 5 is based on a new recorder and features automatic load balancing to manage recordings across system servers, which yields a significant increase in storage, all while reducing costs. It also allows for multiple recorders to be combined under the same Base (including legacy Ocularis 4.X recorders) with centralized user and event management. 

Ocularis 5 is offered in three models: Professional, designed for organizations operating multiple locations with small to mid-sized camera counts; Enterprise, built for a wide range of mid to large IT-centric organizations; and Ultimate, created for large organizations with extended command and control needs along with recording server failover.
