Video wall from eyevis protects Calderdale

A video wall installed by Burnley company eyevis UK is helping to protect the people of Calderdale after being installed as part of a £680,000 upgrade of the area’s CCTV system.

Eight eyevis 47-inch EYE-LCD-4700-USN-LD-FX displays help staff at Calderdale Council’s CCTV monitoring centre view images from 64 cameras in town centres across the borough, at any time of day throughout the year.

The upgrade came as the previous system was installed in the mid-1990s and was outdated. Updates in technology since then mean that the new equipment costs less to run and uses less energy.

eyevis EYE-LCD-4700-USN-LD-FX displays feature full-HD resolution with 1920×1080 pixels, Direct-LED backlight technology and a narrow bezel.

The displays were installed with a Netpix 4900 video wall controller, which provides, in an easy and user-friendly way, individual outputs into a coherent large video wall display, which can be used to present a wide range of network data as well as video and graphics sources.

The CCTV system also covers town centres in Halifax, Todmorden, Hebden Bridge, Mytholmroyd, Elland, Brighouse and Sowerby Bridge and was provided by BT Redcare Surveillance through the council’s contract with Virgin Media Business.

Eyevis UK, based in Briercliffe, was formed seven years ago by Burnley man Steve Murphy, and now employs seven full-time staff, as well as using sub contractors and support from other local firms in Burnley.

eyevis UK managing director Steve Murphy said: “CCTV is a key tool used to detect and prevent crime and anti-social behaviour in Calderdale and in 2014 helped to make over 220 arrests in the area.

“It also plays many other important roles, such as protecting iconic sites, aiding parking enforcement, helping to find missing people, monitoring river levels, managing big events and preventing suicides.

“The eyevis displays help provide higher quality pictures, improved night vision, better recording and the ability to zoom into fine detail." eyevis equipment is installed across the UK in CCTV control rooms for local authorities, banks, road traffic monitoring, emergency services, blue chip retailers, security services, prisons and other government buildings.
