It is expected that by 2015 the average consumer will have access to five or more cameras. This explosive growth in camera access and usage requires a new generation of software and software services, that allow users to easily manage all camera signals he or she has access to.
Available soon from the Apple App Store, iVigilo Dashboard is an easy to use powerful camera management and alerting App, providing remote camera security, life casting, baby monitoring and global webcam monitoring applications from the palm of the user's hand. The iVigilo Dashboard communicates with and controls all functionality of the iVigilo Alert Centre on the Mac through a secure peer-2-peer connection over Wi-Fi or mobile networks.
The iVigilo Alert Centre App is installed on the users Mac. Through the iVigilo Alert Centre the user can add the Mac's own built-in camera or most network MJPEG IP cameras to the iVigilo set-up. The iVigilo Alert Centre contains a built-in Digital Video Recorder (DVR) which can record from any of the active cameras either manually, time-lapsed or on motion detection. Subsequently the iVigilo Alert Centre creates alerts based on user-selected parameters (signaled by the specified cameras), which are then relayed to the user through the iVigilo Dashboard App installed on the mobile device. The iVigilo Alert Centre can be downloaded for free.
