Schneider Electric presenta Pelco 3D, the first software for the design of video surveillance systems in three dimensions

Pelco by Schneider Electric and Fortem Software have collaborated to develop a unique tool to make the design and management of 3D video surveillance systems a reality.. Pelco 3D significantly reduces times, optimizes the design costs of new video surveillance installations and allows it to be adapted to the specific needs of each client thanks to its customization capacity.

Schneider Electric Pelco 3D has been launched on the market, the first software in the sector that allows you to design complete video surveillance systems in three dimensions. The tool, which can be downloaded for free on the website Pelco by Schneider Electric, significantly reduces the costs of new installations by making it easier to choose the most appropriate combination of video cameras. For Pelco 3D design, The company has had the collaboration of Fortem Software, company dedicated to the development of advanced generation software aimed at innovating public and private security standards, and who has worked, inter alia, for Google, Adobe and the Canadian Space Agency.

Esteban García Montoro, Schneider Electric Security Product Manager, has highlighted: “We are proud to be the first to have this tool and to be able to offer it to our clients.”, completely free. With Pelco 3D we put at your disposal a powerful tool that will allow you to design your video surveillance installations in a much faster and more efficient way., since thanks to this new software we will be able to know where to place the cameras and what areas will be left as blind spots. So, we can determine if we need to change the current selection of cameras or if, on the contrary, the selection is correct”.

The software, which is compatible with all Pelco cameras, imports a 2D map of the facility to generate a 3D prototype where designers and integrators can test different camera options, lenses and placements. With pixel-by-object calculator and preview functions, personalized coverage is achieved and the cost of the installation is optimized by being able to select the appropriate combination for each client.

Among the most notable features of Pelco 3D by Schneider Electric are the viewing angles, with immediate 3D images that examine the proper functioning of the design requirements; and the material invoice that the salesperson can print after choosing the types of camera and lenses, and that includes availability data at Pelco. Besides, to control the system, The tool creates a simple and complete report that includes data about lenses and cameras: your location within the 3D map, his height, their field of vision and the three points of view with which they work (chopped, bird's eye view, camera view).
