We are pleased to announce the launch of Bosch Video Client (BVC) 1.2, a new generation of HD video management software. The software is simple to install, easy to configure and intuitive to use. It is delivered free-of-charge with all Bosch IP cameras and is ideal for installations of up to 128 IP channels.
Bosch Video Client supports both standard definition and HD cameras with its industry leading visual adaptive cameo tiles that dynamically change to support the HD 16:9 aspect ratio. BVC displays live video from up to 20 standard definition and high definition cameras simultaneously, and allows control of pan-tilt-zoom cameras by clicking and dragging a mouse or by using the console. Live camera streams can also be displayed on a monitor wall.
Favorite views can be defined and named by each user and are easily accessible, offering one-click display of related camera images in a user-defined layout. Electronic zoom assists in examining critical areas of live and recorded scenes more closely. And, in playback mode, BVC shows recordings of up to four cameras at once and allows searching for alarm and motion events, and exporting of relevant video footage.
The software can be installed on any recent Windows PC. A simple Configuration Manager Wizard takes users through set-up one step at a time. Cameras can be quickly configured for most common lighting conditions, while allowing individual settings to be adjusted to obtain optimized results for a specific scene.
The Bosch Video Client also offers an abundance of supported storage solutions, including the 700 Series Recorders, to meet customer budget and retention needs. It is the ideal solution for a wide range of small to medium surveillance applications, including retail, banking, transportation hubs and small commercial buildings.
