Employing KAM codec (KAM compression)
About encoder / decoder LiveServer LsBox


LiveServer LsBox is a server for transmitting video to remote site via intranet / internet by compressing video / voice data into compact sizes by KAM, our own video compression technology (patented).
Possible to materialize high functionality next generation video monitoring system by applying LsBox for establishing variety of systems.
Conventional camera monitoring system / TV system had been restricted by relatively short distance from camera to monitoring center, and its major applications are for completion of playback / saving / monitoring jobs within a certain area, however, the system employing LsBox enables monitoring at multiple sites by transmitting digitized high resolution video signal through network as long as it is connected to intranet / internet even though encoder sites are distributed.
"Capability of establishing flexible monitoring system", this is the major feature of LsBox.
Highly reputed for remarkable cost cutting due to video file size reduction by low load on network by high compression rate.

  • (Remark)
    Generally the bandwidth for transmitting high quality video through web camera network is said to be around 8-10 Mbps, and only approx. 5 sets web camera can be connected to 1 LAN cable (100Mbs), however, as LsBox, employing KAM method, has 0.6-3 Mbps bandwidth and possible to connect over 30 sets web camera.
Further, with control function, possible to control remote shutter, air conditioner, lighting, etc., by watching video.
Good for building / factory monitoring system, security camera shopping avenue / school area, TV conference with remote site, distribution of education scene video, etc.
It is widely applied to variety of use.
No mismatching problems of camera as long as it is through NTSC output.
(In the case of PTZ control, restricted to models compliant with client software.)

Main features of LiveServerLsBox

KAM compression : special compression algorithm
Dedicated client (viewer) software is necessary for playback.(jpeg for still picture)
Further, the following 3 steps security measures will prevent invasion from outside.

KAM compression :Variable bitrate method
Best for monitoring system, due to clear in details for necessary information, high compression for non-important information


Capable of bi-directional
video / voice transfer
Housing : dust proof sealed case
Maintenance free design, without moving parts like HDD, fan, etc.
Applicable under various environment, due to wide temperature range
from -10 to 50


Other functions
  • Featured with built-in decoder function, possible to connect TV monitor, etc. with video input terminal to NTSC output terminal directly tand display video.

  • Possible to embed up to 16 FA programs custom made and possible to enable LsBox to function by its own logic.

    [Example of applications]
    Application to switch to spare line automatically against line problem by automatic booting of FA program, in the case installed in unmanned site, etc.
