Cutting edge architecture with streamlined managment

Meraki MV architecture

Meraki’s expertise in distributed computing brings simplicity to security camera deployments. With cloudaugmented edge storage, MV smart cameras provide groundbreaking ease of installation, configuration, and operation. Eliminating the network video recorder (NVR) reduces equipment CAPEX and the simplified architecture minimizes lifetime OPEX costs.

Each MV smart camera comes with integrated, ultra-reliable, industrial-grade storage. This cutting-edge technology allows the system to efficiently scale to any size, with storage expanding with the addition of each camera. Plus, as video is stored locally, administrators can rest easy knowing that even if the network connection cuts out, the cameras will continue to record footage.

Integrated wireless for flexible deployments

As the primary storage is on the camera itself, very little bandwidth is used unless video is being watched. This unique architecture makes it possible to deploy MV smart cameras wirelessly, with minimal impact to the network. All MVs have wireless functionality built in, meaning they can be deployed without having to run new cabling for connectivity. The option for wireless deployments offers organizations an easy upgrade path for analog cameras without the need for recabling, and allows greater flexibility for remote or temporary sites.

Secure and always up-to-date

Centralized cloud management offers one of the most secure platforms available for camera operation. Built with Cisco Trust Anchor Modules, secure boot, firmware image signing, and runtime defenses, MV smart cameras are protected and tamper-proof. Access to the camera is encrypted with a public key infrastructure (PKI) that includes individual camera certificates. Local video is also encrypted by default and adds a final layer of security. All security measures are on by default, require no user configuration, and cannot be turned off.

Software updates are managed automatically for the delivery of new features and to enable rapid security updates. Scheduled maintenance windows ensure the MV family continues to address users’ needs with the delivery of new features as part of the cloud service.

MV Sense:

For Meraki Smart Cameras

With an integrated mobile-grade processor on each MV device*, Meraki smart cameras have revolutionized the security camera and video analytics world. Servers and complex software are no longer requirements to benefit from the wealth of analytics insights that can be gleaned through computer vision and machine learning technologies. Processing video data on the camera, and not in the cloud, also reduces the time required to produce these insights.

MV Sense is the perfect companion to the Meraki smart camera line*, allowing users to further utilize the MV machine-learningbased computer vision outputs via API to create custom business solutions. From an individual camera all the way up to a global fleet, MV Sense supplies organizations and developers with processed, high-value data and insights with no additional infrastructure requirements.

The MV Sense API allows developers to access three types of rich data insights (Figure 1):

• Historical aggregate: How many people were in a given area at a specified time, and where exactly were they in the frame?
• Current snapshot: How many people are in a given area right now, and where exactly are they in the frame?
• Real-time feed: A stream of the number of people and their exact location in a frame, pushed out in sub-second intervals

Additionally, the ability to define zones as specific areas of interest coupled with these three types of endpoints gives users selective granularity and customizability: two shopping queues in a single camera frame can be defined and analyzed as such with MV Sense.

From streamlining an operation, to creating a richer customer experience, to making a safe school even safer, and everything in between, MV Sense allows users to utilize their security camera deployment for more than just security. Meraki smart cameras coupled with MV Sense unleash the power of cameras as sensors.
