Touch Screen Digital CCTV Decoding And Case Management
ViewSTATION provides a completely unique solution to the complex task of decoding, viewing and processing a huge variety of digital CCTV. Developed over many years in conjunction with police users, it allows non-technical users to immediately extract evidence in the form of images and video clips from virtually any video format or proprietary digital CCTV file type. Most commonly occurring formats are supported in the ViewSTATION universal player interface.
ViewSTATION is operated step by step via a clear and simple to use touch-screen intuitive user interface. Since the user interface is powered by Adobe Flash no skills of operating PC’s or Windows are required. In fact this feature protects the system since users can no longer install programs or inadvertently move or drag and drop files, something which commonly affects standard Windows based systems. Inexperienced users can immediately begin viewing and extracting evidence with little or no training.
World Leader In CCTV Decoding And Video Enhancement Technology
ViewSTATION has been in successful operation for many years at several police divisions and custody suites. It has become a vital tool in verifying events, quickly identifying suspects and immediately providing video evidence.
ViewSTATION Gen2 is available in the new compact all-in-one or desktop PC. Existing users have praised ViewSTATION as being a serious time-saving system that significantly speeds up the prosecution of crimes caught on CCTV.
ViewSTATION uses a similar internal codec and player management engine as DCR which can also be run with the same license when ViewSTATION is restarted with the Windows desktop enabled.

CODEC & PLAYER MANAGEMENT
The installation of multiple codecs and DVR player programs can create several problems for Windows based computers. Vision Base Codec & Player Management prevents these problems by managing the operating system and resources required by hundreds of DVR playback programs.
AUTO FORMAT DETECTION
ViewSTATION uses our proprietary multi-layer detection method to determine the precise format, this detection is very successful for formats with unique file extension or headers but it has also been designed to distinguish between formats sharing the same file extension, for example, ajp, vid, dvr dat..
TIME & DATE DECODING & OVERLAY
ViewSTATION supports the time and date information within several formats and can overlay this in real-time as a clear time & date stamp on images, exported video clips and live video.
Access for all
ViewSTATION has been developed for non-technical users and does not require Microsoft Windows “familiarity” or skills; its user interface is developed specifically to be used by law-enforcement officers rather than experienced technicians. The simple to use touch-screen controls provide access to all the features in the system including Immediate Playback of footage, Case Management and DVD production.
Central Storage Evidence Repository
ViewSTATION is capable of saving images and video clips into a database which can be accessed by collaborating agencies within a local or remote network.
Stand Alone Deployment
ViewSTATION is typically used stand-alone and evidence copied to USB devices, CD or DVD for instant viewing on any PC or DVD player. ViewSTATION also uses print templates to produce hardcopy evidence using standard or photo quality printers.
