Camera · Machine data · DataBorder
See inside
the machine.
Data and video merged together in a single stream.
01 The system
Factory data
in your NVR.
RAVidEns watch the physical and digital world, merging the two together and streaming them into any standard NVR for later analysis, or straight to a laptop to see live data and the physical world together.
RAVidEns
Cameras watching machinery and data.
Second sight
Data merged with the video stream.
DataBorder
Data encoded in the video stream.
Recorder
Store in any NVR and retrieve trends and history straight from the feed.
02 Second sight
Video stream enhanced.
Human and machine readable data.
RAVidEn on the camera reads the controller and renders live values, states, trends and the DataBorder into a standard camera stream. Any recorder stores it.
Live values and states
Mode, motors, the running routine and the program line. What the controller knows, drawn on the machine that is doing it.
Trends the camera keeps
Automatic history and trends captured in the camera and embedded in the video feed.
The DataBorder
A ring of pixels around the frame carries the values, states, and history. Tuned to survive re-encoding, clipping, and screen recording.
03 Three ways in
Record it. Watch it.
Share it.
Record it in the NVR you already have.
RAVidEn is a standard camera stream. Your recorder stores it like any other camera, and the overlay and the DataBorder go with it. Scrub back to the fault and the values are there on the picture.
Watch it live, like a data scope.
Open the live view when something is wrong. The picture and the values move together, so the cause and the effect show up in the same frame. No pendant, no laptop on the cell.
Share a clip that carries its data with it.
Export a clip, send it, play it anywhere. The decoder reads the DataBorder back out of the pixels: a timeline of every value, the trends, and the history the camera stored. Second sight, forwarded.
04 Why a RAVidEn
Status you couldn't see.
Now it's in the picture.
The controller knows what the machine is doing. The camera sees it happen. RAVidEn puts the two together: the values inside the controller, drawn on the picture and written into every frame.
Cameras on the cell. The controller on the network. The recorder you already run. No server, no historian, no new database.
05 Start
Start with one cell.
Install RAVidEn on an Axis camera, point it at the controller, and place the values on the picture. The stream shows up in the recorder like any other camera.
