Security
Cardinal Peak has provided engineering consulting services to a wide range of clients in the security and CCTV industry. Whether you are an industry powerhouse bringing a new high-definition H.264 IP camera to market for high volume manufacturing, or a niche company developing a customized desktop streaming video solution for a narrow vertical market, Cardinal Peak is your low-risk, high-return technology partner.
Because we work regularly in the security space, we understand the requirements for bringing a product to market and can help you identify ways to differentiate yourself in the marketplace. Our video intellectual property cores help us deliver a reliable product quickly, at low cost and with great certainty. We have brought many PVR, DVR and NVR solutions to market, supporting a wide range of video inputs, from single source up to 16 video source inputs.
CASE STUDY
Cardinal Peak helped one startup develop an embedded video appliance based on Linux that receives up to 16 channels of analog (standard-definition) video input, compresses the video using a software MPEG-4 part 2 encoder, and streams live or stored video over the Internet using ISMA-compliant RTP and RTSP protocols. By utilizing a combination of our own intellectual property cores and some proven open source components, we were able to minimize development costs and time to market, while delivering a highly reliable solution capable of continuous operation for weeks on end.
