Advanced Micro Peripherals’ – a leading manufacturer of ruggedized, long life embedded video solutions – has introduced a modular IP streamer / server for remote video monitoring applications in defense and critical infrastructure. The HYDRA system supports up to 9 channels of video streaming along with a single audio input channel. HYDRA has been designed and tested for both fixed and mobile applications in the toughest conditions, making use of military grade MIL-DTL-38999 connectors (with dust covers), input power protection for compatibility with vehicle power systems and infra red reflective paint. The system was also created as a modular solution to facilitate the integration of other functions and application code to meet the requirements of specific applications – a service option not available on most streamer products.

The standard IP streamer/server system can be quickly configured over a LAN connection using a regular browser with the operating parameters for each video channel being set individually or as a group. Furthermore, the image quality and bit rate can be optimized to suite the available network bandwidth. Click here to find out more.
