In the third week of November, SnapAV announced that it acquired Visualint, an up-and-coming provider of surveillance products featuring video analytics for enhanced security.
With this acquistion, SnapAV has added video analytics to CCTV/surveillance cameras and NVRs. Visualint technology allows cameras to distinguish between people, pets, cars, and swaying trees, for example, so it doesn’t trigger alerts on false positives.
Visualint products will begin to appear on the SnapAV dealer portal in Q1 2017. Initially, they will remain independent of SnapAV’s existing product lines, including Luma products as well as Snap’s OvrC remote-monitoring platform.

Eventually, however, they will merge into a single ecosystem that includes other SnapAV solutions.
