Locomotive Safety and IP Video
 
 
All aboard for a journey outside the mainstream.

 

   Innovative IP technology is behind a train safety monitoring system in Georgia. Locomotive manufacturer CLCX, Inc. is using an IP Video System from IndigoVision to monitor freight locomotives to enhance operational safety and provide a diagnostic tool in the event of problems. The locomotive operates on a manufacturing site moving raw materials and finished goods. The IP Video system helps improve operational safety by giving the train operator 360 degree visibility.

   The video system is designed and configured by IndigoVision's authorized partner Mobilcomm. It also serves as a video and audio event recorder. This is very important if an incident like an accident or near miss should occur. By recording video footage of any incidents, from one of the six cameras mounted on the locomotive, the owner of the locomotive can provide evidence showing the facts of the incident.

Livestock Poultry Health Program upgrades security
and productivity.
 

   Special access privileges are needed to get into Clemson University's Livestock Poultry Health Programs in Columbia, SC. The facility is secured by Brivo's ACS WebService to ensure full access control of four agricultural departments that see upwards of 200 staff and visitors a day. ADT Security Systems of Columbia assisted Clemson staff in their search for a new access control system introducing the Brivo system and its many benefits and helping to write the bid specifications. Since many of Brivo's features are unique, no other access control system qualified during the bid process.
