The DreamBox is a state-of-the-art
embedded hardware and software product
that integrates a number of CCTV related
applications into one box. The system is
economical, compact and eliminates
complicated cable installations and network
protocols integration.
DreamBox contains twelve different applications, including Digital Video and Audio
Recording, Video & Audio Matrix Switcher,
Outdoor and Indoor Video Motion
Detection System (VMD), Security
Management System (SMS) and
Transmission system.
The DreamBox is substantially lower in
price than the sum of its technologies. Its
target markets include governmental,
institutional and other sensitive facilities,
such as: airports, train stations, seaports,
prisons, casinos and hospitals.
DreamBox is able to share resources, data
and storage between units. This distributed
topology, which does not require any central
server, results in high data redundancy and
maximum system uptime.

DREAMBOX (DB) SHORT DESCRIPTION
DreamBox (DB) is a real time multimedia
surveillance system for CCTV applications.
DreamBox, with its built-in ETX
Pentium® and 11 DSP’s, processes
information such as video, audio and
data. This allows multiple users to view,
analyze in real-time, transmit, respond,
record, playback, smart-search, manage,
debrief and archive simultaneously. Each
DB performs a number of independent
processes which include video
compression, audio/video transmission,
digital recording, content analysis
algorithms (such as outdoor and indoor
video motion detection), digital/analog
acquisition, data transfer over multiple
network types, synchronized playback of
video and audio, digital switching
between cameras, videophone and
security management software integration
to external computerized systems. All
these functions are included inside one
2Ux19” box.
DREAMBOX (DB) OBJECTIVES
1. Include all the components of a
CCTV system in a single box
2. Reduce integration time
3. Reduce the CCTV system, network
and infrastructure cost
4. Minimize installation efforts
5. Enable complete data and network
redundancy
6. Allow sharing of resources between
DB’s within a distributed topology
DREAMBOX BUILT-IN DIGITAL VIDEO
RECORDER (DVR)
DreamBox, the smart digital video and
audio recording solution for security
applications, uses MPEG4 or H263 video
compression technology. Each
DreamBox can record up to 30/25
(NTSC/PAL) Frames Per Second (fps) on
each of its 8 video inputs - providing full
D1 (4 CIF) video resolution while
requiring far less storage space.
DreamBox is designed for real-time
recording. Full control over the bit-rate,
frame rate and resolution, gives the users
a highly customizable solution. The
variable frame rate for different zones in
the same camera field-of-view means a
cost-effective solution for recording and
storage of high frame rate with high
resolution. Smart archiving and smart
bandwidth reduction algorithms reduce
storage requirements in high demand
applications.
DreamBox’s embedded VMD algorithm
is specifically designed for outdoor
applications and is capable of
simultaneously detecting and tracking
several targets per camera. Intruders are
displayed and tracked using a colored path.

DREAMBOX BUILT-IN OUTDOOR VIDEO
MOTION DETECTION (VMD)
A state-of-the-art unattended object
detection algorithm is an optional feature
which allows for baggage detection,
vehicle detection, intrusion detection and
other content analysis scenarios.
DreamBox employs virtual audio and
video connection capabilities for unlimited
connection combinations. The built-in
Matrix Switcher offers PTZ control over
the network with limited delays (80-250
ms), programmable tours for switching
between cameras and color overlay over
Analog and VGA displays (full or quad).
The DB generates alarms when there is a
video fail or covered camera. The built-in
alarm-tour enables the simultaneous
presentation of alarm pictures and video
clips of multiple events.
DREAMBOX BUILT-IN SECURITY
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The security management system is a
real-time control and display system that
integrates a wide array of security components using a distributed SQL
database.
DreamBox’s advanced embedded detection
capabilities and high-speed video
processing ensure detection under
various weather conditions while
dramatically reducing the false alarm
rate associated with outdoor VMD.
The graphical user interface supports
multiple operators in multiple languages.
With up to 30 frames per second VMD
processing per channel (total of 120fps
per unit), DreamBox can detect very fast
movement. Its 27,000 detection cells
enable the detection of very small
objects, and when combined with a
programmable 3D topographic map, can
easily distinguish between small objects
and partially concealed targets.
Each DreamBox can serve as a user
workstation, and setting up the system
can be done from any Dreambox on the
network via authorized protected
password.
An active scheduler exists for automated
response to a wide combination of
security scenarios.

DREAMBOX BUILT-IN TRANSMISSION
SYSTEM
DreamBox uses MPEG4/H263 video and
audio compression for fast, efficient and
cost-effective operation. The DB
contains all of the required transmission
elements, including: Encoding,
Switching, Routing, Fiber Optic
Transceivers, Decoding and transforming
to Analog and VGA Monitors in the
control center(s).
NO CENTRAL SERVER
DreamBox’s distributed closed loop
design can detect cut cables and automatically create alternative data paths. Parallel
processing and resource sharing means
DreamBox can easily complete complex
security tasks and share information
between other DB’s.
DreamBox units connect via LAN and
offer infinite expansion capabilities. The
ring topology allows for directional
communications resulting in added
redundancy. Each DreamBox can serve
both as a CCTV field unit and as a user
workstation, thus there is no need for a
dedicated viewing station.
Simplified Integration
Linux, DreamBox’s operating system,
enables true multitasking operation,
significantly reducing computer
downtime.
The DB distributed SQL database can
initiate parallel database query processing
with individual DB’s mining their own
databases - the combined results are
displayed immediately.
CABLE REDUCTION
SMART ALGORITHMS
FLEXIBLE TRANSMISSION
DreamBox integrates all CCTV
components into one box, greatly
reducing the amount of cabling required.
PHYSICAL INTEGRATION
DreamBox user-friendly software
replaces the physical connections
required between cameras, players,
recorders, matrixes and management
systems.
SOFTWARE INTEGRATION
DreamBox frees users from the integration
of non-standard protocols, compatibility
with older versions, and compatibility
issues between vendors.
MODULAR & SIMPLE MAINTENANCE
AND SERVICE
DreamBox’s scalable, modular and
all-inclusive design, ensures simple and
cost-effective stock management and
reduced maintenance costs.
REDUNDANCY
The built-in Raid 1 storage allows for
complete backup redundancy to any
DreamBox connected to the network.
LINUX OPERATING SYSTEM
The Smart Bandwidth Reduction
Algorithm and Smart Archiving
Algorithm greatly reduce storage
requirements.
Multicast/Unicast/Broadcast - Multiple
video transmission options allow for
optimal exploitation of network bandwidth.
INFRASTRUCTURE SERVICES
Each DreamBox includes a built in
Ethernet switch, router, fiber optic transceivers and video server. Traditionally
these components come as external add-ons
to a CCTV system. The built in network
components offer secure and efficient
control of data processing.
DreamBox includes built-in infrastructure
components and protocols, which eliminate
the requirement for dedicated infrastructure
components. These services include
RS232, TTL (in and out), and analog (in
and out).
HIGHER MTBF
Reducing the number of components and
combining them all in one box results in
a higher MTBF (Mean Time Between
Failure), fewer spare parts, less training,
less maintenance and less warehouse
space.
ADDITIONAL APPLICATIONS
Other embedded security applications
include: intercom, public address, voice
evacuation, videophone and alarm help
points.
