Xeoma is a surveillance system that supports not only video monitoring but also motion detection and sound recording. The application is compatible with a wide array of hardware types, including IP, CCTV, and wireless cams. Likewise, it lets you watch multiple video signals simultaneously, and you can even monitor such input on your portable device.
The application is characterized by having a modular structure, which makes it extremely moldable to different needs. However, this probably makes it more difficult to use than other similar tools and it is a shame that the help documentation is quite poor. Luckily, it is still possible to use some of the default presets.
As said above, there are various modules, which include surveillance by not only video but also audio. Similarly, there is a module that detects motion in given areas. Fortunately, there is also a scheduler module to set the system to start monitoring at given dates or hours. There are even modules that can identify faces and certain objects.
Another convenient feature of Xeoma is that it helps you save disk space by allowing users to configure the video compression rate. What is more, there is a built-in player to view the stored files.
In case an extraordinary event triggers an alert, the user can get a message via SMS or email. Likewise, there is the possibility to upload snapshots and videos to an FTP location in such case.
All in all, Xeoma has the advantage of being flexible and adaptable to many different scenarios and hardware. The product is available through many licenses, including a free one. Moreover, there are paid licenses: Lite, Standard and Pro, which allow different numbers of cameras.
v20.2 [Mar 15, 2020]
Additional module: Car speed detector. This module works in combination with the ISKRA DA/40 hardware speed radar and the ANPR (License Plate Recognition) module and is able to determine speed of the car by correlating data from the radar, a photograph of the car and its recognized number. This module is purchased separately and activated over Xeoma Standard or Xeoma Pro modes. Available for testing in the trial version of Xeoma for 1 hour, then reconfiguration is required;
Additional module: improved visualization in the “Object Recognition” module. Objects that don’t meet the set criteria for triggering will now not be highlighted;
Additional module: the “Object Recognizer” module now can pass information about the detected object type to the “Sending Email” module. Use the %OBJECT% macro in the messages’ subject or body;
Additional module: improved CSV reports for the “Face Detector (Emotions)“. Reports now have information about the detected emotion and how sure the AI is this is exactly that emotion (in percents);
