MOBOTIX App: Premium Solution Now Available On The App Store
NEW YORK --(Business Wire)--
The newly available MOBOTIX App is a mobile video management solution
for Apple* iPhone (News - Alert), iPad, iPad mini and iPod touch devices that improves
everyday convenience and security. With this free-of-charge App, MOBOTIX
users can access their video systems anytime from anywhere in the world
and have mobile Internet access via WLAN (Wi-Fi) or UMTS/3G.
Bandwidth-optimized remote access to live feeds and recordings, as well
as an easy-to-use, easy-to-understand interface with a wide range of
system functions make the MOBOTIX (News - Alert) App an outstanding premium solution.
Thanks to the MOBOTIX decentralized system architecture for
high-resolution IP video systems, data storage, alarms and recording
take place directly inside the cameras. The networked cameras form a
kind of data cloud that the App accesses to display the desired
information in a user-friendly manner. This makes management and control
of MOBOTIX cameras and the T24 IP Video Door Station easy and
convenient. Thanks to the App's intuitive user interface, all cameras
and recorded events can be viewed immediately at any time.
Bandwidth-Optimized Video Display
With the App, it is easy to establish an intercom connection with
cameras that have microphones and loudspeakers. This works both for
local networks and for remote access. The recordings from individual
cameras and camera groups can be filtered by events or chronology, and
played back via the integrated video player. If the MOBOTIX App is on
the same local (WLAN) network as the video source, live feeds and
recordings can normally be viewed in the App at full resolution. When
the App is used on the road and the connection is too slow for
high-resolution video, the requested live feeds and recordings can be
compressed and scaled down inside the camera before being transmitted to
the App. If an image area is zoomed in on, the camera transmits not the
entire image but only the zoomed section to the App, at the most
suitable resolution. This streaming method, whichwas specially
developed by MOBOTIX, is the first that offers bandwidth-optimized
compression of the data without compromising either important image
details or a smooth frame rate.
Intelligent App Detects WLAN (Wi-Fi) Networks Automatically
The App automatically detects all cameras connected to the local
network. Cameras that are outside of the local network can be connected
via DynDNS. Once set up, the App remembers all the settings and
automatically switches to the right configuration as soon as the
iPhone/iPad joins a familiar WLAN network. For example, if the App
detects the home WLAN network, transmission will proceed according to
the settings configured for this network. Similarly, when the user
changes location and uses the iOS device via WLAN in a place such as
their office or vacation home, the access settings for this are switched
automatically. Users thus have quick, convenient access from anywhere
without having to re-enter the network data for a camera (local or
remote address).
Easy Control And Management of T24 IP Video Door Station With Premium
App
The App automatically provides mobile notifications when someone rings
the doorbell, as well as offering options for two-way communication with
the visitor and for remote door opening. Thanks to MOBOTIX hemispheric
video technology, the entire entrance area of the IP Video Door Station
can be viewed. The App's video player also plays back any new mailbox
messages. The virtual PTZ function available in the App enables remote
digital panning, tilting and zooming of the video systems - even in
recordings and at a later time. Above-average image quality is given by
a resolution of 3.1 megapixels.
Access Rights And Security
To avoid any unauthorized access to MOBOTIX video systems in the event
of theft or loss, the device owner can set up a security PIN for
accessing the App. Individual App functions can also be PIN-locked for
persons that have access to the iOS device but should not have all user
rights. For example, a user can be given access rights to view the
camera's live feed but not to open the door. Thanks to integrated
back-up and restoring of the App configuration, any accidentally changed
or deleted settings can be retrieved quickly and easily. In addition,
the built-in online help tool assists users to quickly learn how to use
the App.
All MOBOTIX cameras with firmware 4.1.4.70 or higher can make full use
of all the App's functions. Firmware updates can be downloaded free of
charge from the MOBOTIX website. The MOBOTIX App for iPhone*, iPad*,
iPad mini* and iPod* is now available in German and English, with
further language versions to follow.
