 Remote Monitoring Systems – the next generation CCTV
Based on our well established product line certified for extreme environments, HERNIS is currently developing the next generation of CCTV systems for the oil and gas industry. The new systems will be able to cover vast geographical distances and meet the appurtenant demands for reliability and maintainability. The challenges lie in vast geographical distances, limitations in available telecom infrastructure, and access to the installations themselves that are situated in practically inaccessible areas. The new CCTV- architecture will enable expansion by hooking up more CCTV- systems and providing the operator secure access via a web based user interface. This enables seamless transfer of video and control signals between the operator terminal and the camera stations in the different CCTV systems. Already the HERNIS brand is associated with quality and reliability, and the systems are known to require minimal maintenance. Now vast distances and inaccessible grounds add to the challenges of maintainability of the distributed built-in software. Both control stations and camera stations are designed to be diagnosed via the operator interface, and the stations will automatically download and update their own software in a reliable fashion. In principle the operator will need one monitor, Internet and user privileges only to utilize and maintain an «endless» number of camera stations.
