What is Macroscop?

Macroscop professional IP
camera video management
software, that performs the
processing, analysis, storage and
display of video.

Macroscop developers have

developed a new technology to
reduce the amount of data
encoding operations to a required
minimum.

Macroscop emerged as a
technological startup that
managed to solve the basic
problem of IP-based video
surveillance - low computational
efficiency of these systems.

Macroscop algorithms for video

streams processing allow to
efficiently analyze the data
without full decompression and
significantly increase the speed of
processing.

IP systems as opposed to analog

systems produce a large amount of
data encoding operations.

Why Macroscop?

Macroscop employs innovative

technology of video stream
processing without complete
decompression. The application of
this technology results in increase of
data processing speed, therefore
the load on the central processor
reduces by four times on average.
With Macroscop you can connect
four times more cameras to one
server or use less high-powered,
more cost-effective processors to
reduce the costs on server
equipment.

Macroscop advantages

Quick installation
No special admin or programming
skills are required to install
Macroscop. Initial installation and
set-up of Macroscop should not
take more than 10 minutes.
Versatility
Macroscop IP video management
software works with any IP camera
(more than 3,000 models from
over 130 brands, ONVIF and PSIA
support). There is no limit to how
large your system can be.
Reliability
Real time system health
monitoring, server backup and
replication as well as the
possibility

of using RAID-array and networkattached storage ensure failover

and the safety of your data.
Fast search
Interactive search quickly finds
required fragments of video by
faces, position in the frame, object
size, photos and special object
description.
Free mobile apps
Watch video or browse archive
from cameras via the free mobile
apps we've created for Android,
iOS, Windows Phone, or your web
browser from anywhere in the
world.
No hidden costs
One camera = one lifetime license,
free software updates and free
technical support

Macroscop operation scheme

Macroscop allows you to build an IP

video surveillance system of any
size, from just one to an unlimited
number of IP cameras, servers and
workstations.

Cameras that can be installed

anywhere will transmit data to a
server via Internet or a LAN
channel.

To watch the video in real time, as

well as browse the archive a user
Macroscop video management
needs to install the Macroscop
software consists of two parts:
licensed server software and free of client software on a computer,
mobile phone or use the webcharge client software.
client.
To create a video surveillance
system you will need IP-cameras
and Macroscop software for the
server which will perform data
processing and video archiving.

Face recognition

Face detection

Tracking

The face recognition module automatically

identifies optimal frames from the video
stream (reference images). Such images are
stored in a database for subsequent
identification. Highly-accurate recognition is
possible due to the application of innovative
technology that biometrically indexes facial
features.

Automatically selects faces from the video

stream. User is able to select cameras and time
zones to search for faces detected by camera;
generate face database; select a face of interest
and playback all records wherein this face was
detected.

Tracks moving objects within the camera's field

of view. Generates alerts upon crossing lines
and borders (one way or both ways). Entering
the dedicated zone, long stay in the zone, alert
search in archive. Interactive archive search of
crossing of lines set by the operator.

Crowd counter

Queue counter

Car plates recognition

The Crowd Counter Module warns of

dangerous situations and mass unrest on city
streets, in squares, parks, train stations, retail
locations and in other public spaces. The
function automatically notifies the operator
should the quantity of people exceed an
indicated limit. Two limit values may be
indicated that will generate an "Attention" or
"Alarm" signal.

Automatically notifies operator should the

quantity of people exceed an indicated limit in
a given queue, allows to make reports. Allows
to predict the crowding at cash desks, separates
up to six detection zones for one camera.
Generation of reports for the selected period
and detection zone(s).

Designed to automatically recognize and record

license plates that enter an IP camera's field of
view. Events log. Database of car plates.
Different settings per each car plate, creation of
car plates lists. Interception. Barrier gate
management with the list of car plates or by
command of the operator.

Macroscop applications
Abandoned object detector

People counting

Pan-Tilt-Zoom camera control

Designed to locate abandoned objects, allows

to prevent dangerous situation in crowded
places. The time limit of presence of an
abandoned object can be set, the excess of the
time limit will result in generation of alarm
event.

The people counting module enables user to

identify the number of incoming and exiting
people in real time and also to generate
statistics of people staying in a building, entering it
or exiting from it. Reports can be generated for any
period of time from one or several cameras.

The PTZ camera control module saves

money on additional equipment and
controls movement with the use of a
standard gaming joystick.

Macroscop client

Client application. The application allows
to set up the workplace, operate with
archive and event log, intelligent modules
and site plans.

Personnel activity control

Displays on the screen the current level of sound

for each channel. Allows to set up a reaction on
excess of the set sound limit (e.g. start recording
video to archive, display the alarm signal on the
monitor of operator, send sms or e-mail).

Allows to monitor real time activity of staff at the

workplace in the preset zones, generate reports.
Significantly speed up and simplify object
Permits up to six detection zones for each camera. searches in the archive. Upload a photo of the
object into the software (person, car, any
moving object) or indicate its color, dimensions,
position in the frame, and the system will
recognize all objects contained in
recordings from every camera that are similar to
it. In the interception mode, the system will
make an alarm if similar object appears
in the field of camera view.

Fish-eye dewarp

Feature is particularly relevant for the sphere of

retail, transport infrastructure. It allows to
evaluate the activity of the movement, to
identify the main streams of people movement.
Area with the maximum traffic density are
highlighted in red.

Helps to view unlimited number of dewarped flat

frames instead of one distorted, or to magnify
views of dewarped zones in different parts of the
grid. "Virtual PTZ" function helps to make a
frame-per-frame view of all zones of camera
picture - just like with "usual" PTZ-camera.

Applications for Smart TV

Macroscop licensing
features

Single Macroscop license permits the

connection of one IP camera. Only the serverside software is subject for licensing. All client
applications are provided free of charge.
Macroscop user may select one of two options to
access the software: soft key or USB key.
USB key: a physical security key and an
electronic license file installed on the server.
USB key advantages: it can be moved from one
server to another, no additional payment for
new version of key during system extension.
Soft key: the user should supply Macroscop
with file containing parameters of the server
where the software is planned to be installed.
The file is processed with Macroscop server
software. Electronic activation key is generated
and sent to the user.
