Haivision Systems, 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 and easily-available desktop video player designed specifically for defence and ISR professionals.
Haivision Play ISR prioritises low-latency playback of live video with KLV metadata. It is designed to enable 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 solutions such as the Makito video encoder and Kraken video processing platform, Play ISR completes Haivision’s end-to-end ISR ecosystem by providing customers with a suite of products that support each step along ISR video workflows – from contribution from the field of operation, to distribution to command and control centres, and visualisation for real-time analysis and decision-making.
John Leipper, defence product manager, Haivision, said: “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.”
He added: “This combination of features is unmatched in the market and underscores Haivision’s commitment to supporting the work of defence and ISR teams.”
It is available for download as an application for Windows, Mac OS, and Linux, Haivision Play ISR.
