Distributed Enhanced Processing Architecture (DEPA) Advanced

Building upon existing success, DEPA Advanced is an enhanced DEPA technology and now offers the highest quality image analysis and detection.

 

An innovative approach

Video surveillance has historically been dependent upon human intervention and control, the system operator often providing the interface between alarm activations and required actions. The inability of the operator to monitor and process multiple alarm events is often cited as the weak point in traditional surveillance systems.

The more recent introduction of intelligent video and alarm analysis has provided a reduction in operator workflow by the addition of pre-configured alarms, linked to pre-programmed actions.

As a result of its processor intensive requirements video analysis can however be cost prohibitive for many systems, especially in the analogue environment.

Introduced in 2006, Sony’s unique Distributed Enhanced Processing Architecture (DEPA) addresses this issue with an innovative design approach.

DEPA from Sony is an embedded technology providing pre-processing of image data within its camera technology and post-processing of image data within its recording and monitoring solutions.

Intelligent use of network bandwidth

Alarm and image meta data generated by the camera is transmitted on demand to the recording solution where appropriate alarm actions may be initiated.

This distributed architecture allows for intelligent use of network bandwidth and reduces the bottlenecks associated with existing video analysis systems.

PTZ HD cameras - with DEPA intelligence

Operating a continuous product development policy Sony introduces DEPA Advanced technology. Building upon existing success, DEPA Advanced is an enhanced DEPA technology and now offers the highest quality image analysis and detection. Sony’s embedded DEPA Advanced technology delivers unrivalled analytical performance within a range of imaging, recording and monitoring products.

Utilizing Sony’s unique Intelligent Motion Detection (IMD) to determine real or environmental movement and Intelligent Object Detection (IOD) to monitor the image for violation of a pre determined rule, DEPA Advanced provides highly accurate image meta data to the recording and monitoring solution for alarm activation and processing.

A comprehensive range of enhanced pre determined alarm filters include, tamper alarm, virtual fence, trip wire, missing object, people counting and anti loiter options, audio analysis completes the range of advanced features on offer with DEPA advanced technology.

Flexible, scalable solutions from Sony Professional

Sony offers a comprehensive range of embedded DEPA Advanced products from the Sony HD SNC-RH PTZ cameras and SNT-EX/EP encoders to NSR1000 recorders and RSM Advanced monitoring software solutions. A comprehensive range of accessories combine to provide the complete DEPA Advanced end to end solution.

Minimizing false alarms whilst maximizing operator workflow and bandwidth usage, DEPA Advanced from Sony, offers the optimum in cost effective, flexible and scalable video analysis solutions.
