Network Rail approves high-integrity video link technology

Digital Barriers has received the latest certification of its COE video transmission equipment, for use by Network Rail across the UK rail network. The COE X-NET CODEC-TE system is used in transmitting video signals over a digital network using Ethernet and IP protocol, with applications in level crossing monitoring, tail lamp cameras and other signalling applications requiring video transmission over a digital network (FTN, Ethernet LAN, WAN). Certification followed an extended monitored site trial by UK Network Rail engineers.

The X-NET CODEC-TE video link consists of encoder and decoder cards, offering one, two or four channel encoding and decoding. The use of Ethernet across many industries for data transmission - such as the upgrade of the Network Rail FTN network - has resulted in many peripheral communications devices adopting Ethernet, and the X-NET CODEC-TE family is the latest in the COE range of advanced video transmission solutions to be aimed at this network standard.

Digital Barriers announced its latest rail-certification for
its COE X-NET CODEC TE solution in August 2011

Digital Barriers acquisition of video analytics business

Digital Barriers has announced the acquisition of Keeneo, a company providing proprietary video analytics software solutions to the rail, mass-transit, aviation and industrial sectors from its operational base in Sophia-Antipolis, France. The business will be known as Digital Barriers Solution Engineering following integration of the business. Its video analytics solutions enable the real-time detection of human intrusion and other pre-defined activities or incidents in a targeted 3D area or zone. The technology is based on a patented '4D' solution that can intelligently adapt to its environment and mitigate changing illumination or adverse weather conditions.

The SafeZone automatic intrusion detection solution has been deployed in European rail and mass-transit sectors
