A revolutionary interface that allows users to create an unlimited number of customizable, shareable layouts.

The Nx Desktop context sensitive manual has been completely re-written – with new graphical explanations and more!

Control PTZ cameras using quick point and click or outline-to-zoom user interface controls.

Connect your Nx EVOS System(s) to the cloud and them from anywhere, anytime.

Quickly add users and manage user rights with custom user roles, LDAP / Active Directory integration, and more.

Nx Desktop uses adaptive scaling technology to optimize speed while minimizing CPU and network usage.

View up to 64 video streams on a single layout – with support for MJPEG, H.264 and H.265 live streams.

Exporting from Nx Desktop is simple, fast, and flexible. Export single or multiple cameras. Or use Rapid Review.

Nx Desktop uses HTTP and SSL to communicate with all System servers for secure, encrypted communications.

The Nx Desktop application is an 80 MB installer and can run well even on low-end computers  (like the Intel Compute Stick).

Search an entire year’s worth of recorded video in less than a second using any combination of keywords, calendar, bookmarks, and smart motion.

Nx Desktop’s Soft Triggers give operators the ability to manually trigger any event – event integrations to 3rd party systems (e.g. Access Control, Fire, Building Automation).

Integrate any 3rd party System or Device using standard HTTP events and actions combined with notifications, soft triggers, and more.

Create completely customizable timed viewing tours of any system resource – live cameras, recorded videos, images, web pages, I/O control panels.

Nx Desktop’s Two Way audio works like a walkie-talkie, allowing operators to engage with individuals or groups through an IP camera’s built-in audio.

Every Nx Server has an IFTT Events Rules Engine that lets operators configure simple or advanced rules based on System-generated or integrated 3rd party events.

Analyze and predict the amount of data being captured by cameras on every storage location in the system to manage storage.

Manually or Automatically (using the Events Rules Engine) create Bookmarks to highlight critical events and related video.

Administrators can now create dual-streaming “cameras” using RTSP / HTTP / UDP to enable adaptive scaling in Nx EVOS product clients.

Nx EVOS includes integration with C2P (Convergence to Pixels) – an Open Platform Integration Framework enabling dozens of integrations with 3rd party systems.

The upgrade process has been optimized to be more dependable and give System Administrators more control over when and how they upgrade System Servers.

De-warp any live or recorded fisheye video or image, add virtual PTZ tours, and more.

The Desktop client can now be launched using the Command Line Interface.

Users have the option to set a minimum Viewing Grid size (initial number of Viewing Grid items) in Layout Settings dialog.

Administrators can now create Rules in the Rules Engine to open any user-defined Layout as an action for roles or specific users.

Users with Export rights can now password protect exported videos using .exe or .nov formats in the Multi-Video export tab.

Administrators can add Operator Names to live, recorded, and exported video as an option to prevent / discover leaked video.

Users can create a virtual camera and import offline video from wearable cameras, phones, and other devices to archive which can then be viewed by other System users like a regular IP camera / video stream.

USB Webcams, Laptop Cameras, and even the Raspberry Pi camera module will all now be auto-discovered and can be recorded and streamed.

The Notifications Panel has been extended to allow operators to quickly view and search video using Notification, Motion, Bookmarks, Events, and detected Objects.

Connect your Nx System to the cloud and login to your Nx system from anywhere, anytime, on any device.

Administrators can connect their Nx Systems to Nx Cloud to make merging remote sites simple. 

Nx Cloud proxies video streams in instances where direct NAT connections to a Systems’s Servers cannot be established.

View live or recorded video from any camera connected to any cloud-connected system without the need to install anything.

Quickly share access to any system connected to Nx Cloud with anyone using their email address and custom user roles.

Connect an unlimited number of systems to a single account for managed services or large enterprise customers.

Nx Cloud undergoes continual security testing and uses the latest encryption technologies to secure user data.

Supports video encryption between Nx Servers and Nx Cloud Client to help prevent man-in-the-middle interception of video traffic.

Nx Cloud has an API that allows integration to 3rd party Internet-connected systems – like Zapier and Nx Connect.

The Nx Server application automatically discovers 99% of IP cameras on the market today using a combination of ONVIF and native camera SDKs. 

Every Nx Server lets users add any RTSP, HTTP, or UDP stream from any device (IP camera, drone, etc) or 3rd party system (DVR, NVR, etc).

Every Server in an Nx System synchronizes user and configuration data in real-time ensuring no single point of failure in any size system.

The Nx Server allows users to capture and store video pretty much anywhere – local drives, SD cards, NAS devices, Veracity Coldstore, or even cloud locations. 

Every Nx Server has a built-in Web Admin Interface to view cameras, check up on things, connect to cloud, or download API and SDK documentation. 

Every Nx Server has an IFTT Events Rules Engine that lets operators configure simple or advanced rules based on System-generated or integrated 3rd party events.

Integrate anything – literally anything – with a RESTful Server API and a full suite of SDKs for device and system integration.

The Nx Server application is small, compact, powerful, and can run on anything from a Raspberry Pi to a Supercomputer.

Send any combination of notifications – built-in desktop notifications, email, or even via SMS or 3rd party systems using HTTP actions.

Enables seamless, semantic integrations between Nx EVOS products and 3rd party AI-powered video analytics like VisionLabs.

Administrators can now create dual-streaming “cameras” using RTSP / HTTP / UDP to enable adaptive scaling in Nx EVOS clients.

Plugins allow seamless integration between Nx EVOS products and 3rd party Systems, pulling in object data and associated bounding boxes, paths, and metadata tags.

Automatic Camera Failover will now be activated when all storage on a Server has failed.

Administrators can now require all connections in a System to utilize HTTPS with SSL/TLS encryption.

Administrators can now encrypt video between Servers and Nx Desktop / Mobile / Web clients.

H.265 support has been extended to include all ONVIF-compliant devices.
