Security and safety during the 2014 event was as always, a priority for the organisers, with an effective CCTV operation essential in order to spot many of the potential issues, such as vehicle access and crowd movement; anything that may 48 THE NOV/DEC 2014 ISSUE SPONSORED BY DAVENPORT BURGESS have impacted the safety and comfort of the general public. In charge of everything CCTV-related, Don Wetherell of Mobile CCTV Ltd is moving with the times supplementing analogue cameras with high-resolution digital imagery, meeting his client’s requirements for more detailed vision. One of Don’s biggest concerns of the new technology, was the staff operating the cameras who were more familiar with joystick control keyboards rather than a mouse which is the preferred option with IP related digital images. Enter Building Block Video to the rescue - with the Asgard HD Decoder Keypad. This can control all the available IP cameras on the system, switching automatically from one camera to another, streaming high-resolution video to display images on an HDMI Monitor. Its substantially higher resolution means that a larger screen can be used, with crystal clear images that fully support the security and safety needs of any venue or event. The new Asgard HD Keypad means no need for a PC or laptop, simply plug in and go, for rapid deployment and with minimum disruption. Don found the new system intuitive, easy to use and a considerable time-saver. Safety, security and crowd comfort were never at risk. He said: “The new IP technology really made a difference to the services that we were able to offer the Farnborough Air Show. In fact, we trialled both the ‘old’ and ‘new’ options and the Asgard product is definitely the way forward. As ever BBV’s customer service was second-to-none. It was a slick operation indeed.” Building Block Video provides a wide range of services including an in-house manufacturing facility that can tailor its solutions to match the project requirements and strong customer support.
