Costar Video Systems proudly introduces StarNET, the latest Video Management Software (VMS). StarNET was developed on the success of the popular iRAS platform. The powerful processing capabilities of StarNET allows it to manage multiple video streams from both analog, HD-TVI, and IP cameras. The StarNET platforms allows for a decentralized management structure, which does not require a central point of access. The StarNET Client can be loaded on an unlimited number of computers and each user can customize their client based on their personal requirements. StarNET allows users to not only view both live and recorded images but quickly produce self-extractable video files that are universally portable to other computers without the need to load any special viewing software. Powerful visual reference maps allow the user to quickly view thumb nail displays of live images embedded within the map as well as link up to 64 map layers together. Multiple views can be displayed on multiple monitors simultaneously, including live viewing, playback and features such as interactive mapping, and advanced management tool to monitor health and generate status reports.
