Sony Security System Design Tool

With the IP Video System Design Tool you can calculate both network bandwidth and storage space for 30 camera resolutions and several compression methods, including H.264, H.265, Motion JPEG and MPEG-4. IP Video System Design Tool enables the system designer to find optimal FPS and compression that tailors to LAN capabilities and automatically calculates required HDD storage space.

This software helps planning security camera placement. IP Video System Design Tool includes CCTV storage and bandwidth calculators, a field of view calculator, lens focal length and pixel density calculator and many other CCTV tools, so users can design a video surveillance system quickly, easily and professionally.

What people say about this software?

JVSG recommended by "Digital Video Surveillance and Security," book

-"If you Google "lens calculator", a number will come up for you to use or you can choose the IP Video System Design Tool, a small undiscovered gem.

Pages 234, 235, "Digital Video Surveillance & Security" book, Second Edition, ISBN-10: 0124200427 by Anthony C. Caputo, 2014

- "JVSG's IP Video System Design Tool is a must have for any system designer. There is no need for guesswork anymore. Using this excellent feature-rich software, you can design a detailed and accurate system from the comfort of your office. No more blind spots or miscalculated lens sizes. It truly is a must have!'

Stephen Cronshaw , Sales Engineer at Axis Communications

- "I have been using the JVSG IP CCTV designing software since 2010. Buying this software has been the best business investment! The software is not complicated to use and is very user-friendly. Besides the calculators, the 3D picture is my favorite software feature. I believe the JVSG IP CCTV software is the best design tool on the market and I highly recommend this product to video system designers."

Dario Dzinic, BA, CAS, NCSO, P.GSC, Interior Safety Network Limited, Canada

- "I started to design video surveillance systems relatively recently. Shortly after, I realized that I needed something to better evaluate the planned design. Vendors and the web give plenty of tools, but I was surprised no one could show you what you would really get on the operator screen and an estimation of the effectiveness of the camera placement.JVSG's IP Design Tool does all these things in a very intuitive way."

Marco Desiati , Sales & Design Engineer at Axians, Italy

- "I love IP Video System Design Tool. It allows me to provide a sophisticated CCTV camera layout to prospective customers for many applications such as Video Analytics, General Surveillance, LPR and more. The fact that I can calculate pixels per foot, the object percentage of FOV, height, angle, object distance and other parameters is amazing."
