Haivision Systems Inc., a global provider of mission-critical, real-time video networking and visual collaboration solutions, has announced the general availability of Haivision Play ISR, a free desktop video player designed specifically for defense and ISR professionals.
“Playback of low latency video alongside KLV metadata in a free, easy-to-use desktop application, empowers Play ISR users with the real-time situational awareness they need to make faster, more informed decisions in the field,” says John Leipper, defense product manager, Haivision. “This combination of features is unmatched in the market and underscores Haivision’s commitment to supporting the work of defense and ISR teams.”
Haivision Play ISR Works with Windows, Mac OS, and Linux Platforms
Haivision Play ISR prioritizes low-latency playback of live video with KLV metadata. It enables users to see events unfolding in real-time with metadata providing more awareness than just video alone. The geospatial information contained within KLV-formatted MISB/STANAG metadata provides the crucial context needed for a more complete understanding of mission-critical situations.
Combined with popular solutions such as the Makito video encoder and the Kraken video processing platform allows the Haivision Play ISR to complete Haivision’s end-to-end ISR ecosystem by providing customers with a suite of products that support each critical step along ISR video workflows – from contribution from the field of operation, to distribution to command and control centers, and visualization for real-time analysis and decision-making.
