Marine Security Leader
Unveils Next Generation Recording Device Capable of Storing 90 Days of Footage
From Up To Six Cameras
GOST® (Global Ocean
Security Technologies), celebrating its 10th year as a world leader
in marine security, tracking, monitoring and video surveillance systems,
announced today the release of its next generation security video solution, the
GOST Watch HD Internet Video Recorder (IVR).
This advanced video recording system features
a four terabyte hard drive – designed specifically to capture and store video
on a modern yacht – that is capable of continuously recording and storing 90
days of video from up to six cameras. The GOST Watch HD IVR system supports the
highest resolution video recording from any GOST or 3rd party analog
cameras connected to the GOST Watch HD Analog-to-Digital Gateway (GWHD-A/D
Gateway). Footage can be accessed locally on board the boat for viewing and
downloading to a computer or USB thumb drive, or remotely via the GOST Watch HD
password-protected website.
The secure GOST Watch HD web portal offers
user-friendly navigation aids with quick review, locate and calendar-lookup
tools; time and date stamped video; as well as an easy-to-use file export
utility. It includes a newly designed interface for accessing stored video
footage quickly and easily. If Internet connectivity is lost or interrupted,
users can also review footage via HDMI or VGA outputs on a boat’s TVs or
multifunction displays (MFD).
“GOST’s clients demand a high level of
excellence from the systems that protect their homes and businesses and expect
the same perfection in the systems protecting their boat,” said Jay Keenan,
president and CEO, GOST. “Our products are designed to prevent the loss of a vessel
and/or equipment, and assist in the investigation after the fact, if necessary.
With the release of our next generation GOST Watch HD IVR, we give our
customers a robust and secure storage device, capable of saving the highest quality
video from the most sources, all with an easy-to-use interface for intuitive
access to recorded video.”
Video files are stored on the GOST
Watch HD IVR system at the highest resolution produced – VGA RES (640 X 480) at
up to 20 FPS using custom H.264/MJPEG dual codec decoding compression. For a
maximum of six cameras, the frame rate can be reduced slightly to ensure
required capacity. In cases where there is little activity in view of the
camera being recorded, the maximum storage may be increased due to the use of
H.264 compression. Connected directly, the GOST Watch HD IVR will collect video
without using the bandwidth from onboard cellular or satellite-based Internet
connections.
