IBM & Siemens
From SecurityInfoWatch.com:
IBM is now officially entering the smart camera market. They call their system the S3 for Smart Surveillance System. I have been waiting for this announcement. IBM has been doing a significant amount of research on smart surveillance or what they use to call their PeopleVision project. You can get a lot more information on the S3 system including technical publications over at IBM Research. Its fairly impressive and you wonder how this will transfer over to their products. Its nice from my position to see a vendor flex their technical acumen.
Also, this is another sign of the importance of this industry. The big players are moving in and swallowing startups. Last week Siemens Building Technologies acquired Vistascape.
