1.1 Introduction
The CamPro Professional is AirLive’s intelligent video surveillance recording software that
is designed to meet most demands for professional installations. The Professional
version greatly enhances the video analysis functions that can be applied to diverse
surveillance scenarios. Bases on client/server architecture, CamPro Professional also
offers remote management, which means you can install it in your server room and
access the system anywhere.
With the bundled CMS software, you can quickly build-up central managed surveillance
structure for franchise stores and central-branch office networks. Moreover, the CMS
software also supports AirLive’s hardware NVR family.
CamPro Professional supports not only AirLive IP camera, but also cameras from most of
the main stream brands. In an installation project where a hybrid environment occurs,
CamPro Professional can easy help you to integrate most of those existing IP cameras.
Even projects with CCTV cameras, you can still use our VS-100 for integrating them into
CamPro Professional.
