A Letter To Our Customers

To Our Valued Customers :

When video surveillance systems were first created they relied on videotape and manual retrieval methods. The current state of the art for video surveillance has come a long way from those early days.

Today, digital images, seamless hybrid integration of analog and digital video and automated retrieval of event information are common place. Today, as well, the security and Information Technology worlds have progressed toward convergence and IT support for video surveillance is steadily increasing. Management's demand for the collection, storage and rapid retrieval of video information is growing and security managers are being required to provide regular reports to management on the integrity of the enterprise and to deliver analysis of threats captured on video.

Salient Systems is committed to designing products based on open standards because we believe it is the best way to allow for the integration of applications with video surveillance systems, such as access control, building automation, command and control, situation management, visitor management and fire alarm systems. Open standards ensures that companies are able to choose the best product offerings in each application area that best suit the needs of the customer.

Salient System's CompleteView^TM was designed to meet today's wide range of video surveillance requirements, and was built on the cornerstone of open standards that guarantees a future proof solution for tomorrow. In addition, Salient Systems Corporation stands apart in its ownership of all CompleteView^TM software components, ensuring ongoing compatibility, quality and service excellence. We are committed to providing the best products, service and support to our customers and invite your further study.
Sincerely,
