Four Channel HD and 4K multicamera recorder and switcher
A FMV Production Studio In The Palm Of Your Hand.
Convergent Design announces the perfect solution for all critical infrastructure patrols with gyrostablized multi-sensor gimbals or other multicamera or sensors. Red Hen is very encouraged that Convergent Design has presented this powerful 4K/HD DVR.
"Match this solid state video recorder with Red Hen Hen's VMS-333 spatial metadata multiplexor and encoder, and you have the most affordable solution for the emerging instrumented corrdor patrol missions... wire, pipe, rail, waterways and streets. The sDVR, spatial digital video recorder once a $40,000+ investment now can be configured for a fraction. This is a huge break-through in afforadability of Airborne & Mobile Geospatial Full Motion Video Recording Systems and Integrated GIS Software", decalerd Neil Havermale at Red Hen Systems.(Colorado Springs, CO) 10/28/15 – Today Convergent Design announces Apollo, the industry’s first truly portable HD multicamera recorder/switcher. Apollo can simultaneously record up to four HD video signals, along with a fifth channel of either a live-switch between the four or a quad-split reference view. Apollo can also function as a four-channel live switcher while simultaneously recording the four isolated HD video signals. The size of a small tablet and able to run for hours on a camcorder battery, Apollo is truly portable and the only device of its kind that can both record multiple HD camera feeds as well as live-switch between them. It’s a production studio in the palm of your hand.

Additional functions are planned for release in the first quarter of 2016, including two-channel 4K/UHD video recording, DNxHD recording, and cascade interconnect between up to three Apollos for up to twelve HD channel or six 4K/UHD channel simultaneous recording. These and other additional functions will be made available via a free firmware update. A remote keypad control unit will be offered along with a rack mount and other accessories.
For those owners of the 7Q/7Q+ recorders who are wondering what happened to the promised quad recording option? Apollo is it. In an interesting move the Apollo functionality will also be available to owners of the 7Q/7Q+ as a paid upgrade. From the outset Convergent Design told users quad recording was going to be a paid option and so this comes as little surprise. Although the price is not insignificant for what is essentially a firmware upgrade the company have added extra features such as the fifth screen recording, which is more that was originally promised.
Apollo is scheduled for release in December 2015. Manufacturer’s list is $3995, with an SSD to USB3 adapter, a 5-pack of SSD mounting handles, and a universal AC power supply included. Owners of the Convergent Design Odyssey7Q and Odyssey7Q+ will be able to purchase an Apollo Option for their devices as an upgrade for $1795.

Anti-Drone Radio/GPS Disruptor
Anti-drone rifle shoots down UAVs with radio waves
by Andrew Tarantola | @terrortola | 15 Hours Ago
While the US military continues to develop new and awesome ways of blowing aerial drones to smithereens, not many of these systems can easily be adapted to use in the civilian realm. That's why Battelle has developed the DroneDefender, a shoulder-mounted rifle that knocks UAVs offline with a barrage of radio waves.
"It can help us in numerous settings, from the White House lawn to bases and embassies overseas; from prisons and schools to historic sites,"Alex Morrow, technical director on the project, said in a statement. "It easily and reliably neutralizes the threat." The weapon weighs roughly 10 pounds and can target drones up to 400 meters away. When the trigger is pulled, the gun emits a blast of electromagnetic energy tuned to the most common GPS and ISM frequencies, safely disabling the drone and preventing it from accepting any additional commands from its operator. This is especially helpful if the drone is equipped with an improvised explosive device.

Amazon Launches Snowball, A Rugged Storage Appliance For Importing Data To AWS By FedEx Poex Story
AWS Introduces Kinesis Firehose To Move Sensor Data To Cloud
Amazon surprised developers today with the launch of Snowball, a new physical appliance that will allow AWS users to ship huge amounts of data for import into AWS by shipping the device back and forth between their offices and the AWS data centers.
The appliance is a bit larger than an old-school desktop case and it can hold up to 50 terabytes of data. It has a Kindle on the side, which functions as an automatic shipping label.
Amazon says the case can withstand a 6 G jolt and is entirely self-contained, with a 110-volt power supply and 10 GB network connection built-in.
Every import/export job will cost developers $200. The first 10 days of onsite usage are free, each extra day on site will cost developers $15 days. Amazon won’t charge for importing the data from Snowball into S3, but it will charge $0.03 per GB for export.
After the user sets up a Snowball job on AWS, Amazon will ship them a Snowball appliance. They then import their data into the appliance and ship it back to Amazon, with the built-in Kindle functioning as the shipping label.
For now, all of the data from Snowball appliances will be uploaded into S3 Standard in Amazon’s Oregon data center — support for other data centers is coming soon.
