Police / Law Enforcement Outdoor, Mobile, Temporary, and Covert, Secure Wireless Digital Video Surveillance Systems

Boundless' Key Features

• Boundless' outdoor equipment internally records higher quality video evidence than IP-cameras can send live over public wide area networks to a distant video recorder
• IP-based yet ultra low bandwidth system is highly optimized for efficient use over public and private, bandwidth-limited, wired and wireless, wide area, IP-data networks
• Uses bandwidth-saving video on demand with near-camera recording and many different digital video streams per camera, not bandwidth-hogging video streaming with central recording of a single video stream
• Optional revokable security certificate for each video capture device, and each viewing PC, and encryption of transmitted information, using OpenVPN, satisfy key requirements for Criminal Justice Information System (CJIS)

Boundless' Key Benefits

• Works where other systems don't due to network bandwidth and routability limitations
• Works even with severely degraded and damaged, public wireless wide area networks
• Digitally records much better video internally than can be sent live over public wireless wide area networks
• Takes advantage of fastest, brief upload speeds while avoiding high monthly data transfers over cellular networks
• Enables many cameras to be used per square mile over existing cellular networks without hogging most of the capacity of each cell
• Enables users to avoid violating cellular wireless Internet Service Providers' Fair Usage Bandwidth Policies, helping avoid service termination and large monthly over-limit bandwidth usage fees
• Enables each officer, at HQ or in the field, to monitor many sites simultaneously, out of sight and out of harm's way
• Efficiently enables clusters of up to four cameras to be used on a single wireless connection, providing comprehensive omni-directional situation awareness as well as PTZ for details
• Protects officers, reduces cost and enables more surveillance operations by avoiding need for video surveillance vans

Overview of Boundless' Ultra Low Bandwidth, IP-Based System

In covert video surveillance, high quality recorded video is often important evidence and has a major impact on the direction of on-going investigations. If the highest quality recorded video is important as evidence, then the video must be recorded near the camera rather than being sent live over a public wide area network to a distant digital video recorder. Boundless’ outdoor systems-in-a-box internally record better video than can be sent live, and do so regardless of changes, and resulting Internet connection dropouts, in dynamic IP addresses. In contrast, IP cameras that stream video to distant video recorders were designed for use on local area networks that have low packet loss, low latency and fixed IP addresses, not wide area networks where packet loss and latency are orders of magnitude higher, and where frequent changes in dynamic IP addresses cause frequent dropouts in video recording.

The following drawings give details of Public Safety applications of Boundless' advanced IP-based (not conventional IP-based), ultra low bandwidth, wireless digital video surveillance system:
