VideoCAD Lite - Inexpensive CCTV design software tool

VideoCAD Lite is an inexpensive version of VideoCAD with limited features. VideoCAD Lite offers only the most useful and easy-to-master tools for CCTV design.

If the Professional version seems too complicated or slow, try the Lite version! It does not contain complex tools. At the same time VideoCAD Lite - fully working tool, not a very restricted version.

VideoCAD Lite may seem less demanding of computer resources because of absence of resource-intensive tools. However, these tools when they are not needed, can be disabled in version Professional too.

VideoCAD Lite can be available without USB dongle, it can be registered with tie to computer parameters (HID registration).

VideoCAD Lite can be upgraded to more powerful Professional version.

Choose the most suitable lenses, heights and locations for camera installation to provide the required parameters of view areas.

Calculate the horizontal projection sizes of view areas to draw them on the location plan.

Display by separate colors and hatch styles different regions of spatial resolution and field-of-view size.

Choose visually a relative location of cameras using the graphics window with CAD interface.

Locate cameras and cables on the prepared layouts in *.bmp, *.jpg, *.emf, *.wmf, *.png, *.gif, *.tif, AutoCAD *.dwg, *.dxf formats.

Obtain a drawing containing two projections of site layout with the camera images, calculated view areas and cables, and with coordinate grid and titles to be used in graphical path of the project as well.

Print the obtained drawing on one or several pages. You can use prepared frames with standard title-Block and logo.

Export the obtained drawing into any of the following formats: *.bmp, *.jpg, *.emf, *.wmf, *.png, *.gif, *.tif, AutoCAD *.dxf (R14), *.dxf (R2000). Flexible adjustments of resolution and other export parameters.

Obtain a text file with full description of all cameras in project, view areas and cables to be pasted into a project explanatory note or used as instruction for installation.

Copy the Camera list with most important parameters to MS Excel, MS Word and other software.

Construct three dimensional models of real scenes with the possibility of loading prepared 3D models (a person, a car, etc.). You can add your own 3D models from 3ds max and Google Sketchup.

Design operator interface using the Monitor window.

Calculate the length and electric parameters of cables.

Spare the means and win tenders due to the reduction of cameras' quantity in projects and increase of their efficiency.
Reduce time expended and boost design quality.
Cut down the amount of controversial situations with customers and accelerate their solution.

Choose the most suitable lenses, heights and locations for camera installation to provide the required parameters of view areas for detection and identification of a person and license plate reading.

Calculate the horizontal projection sizes of person detecting, identifying and license plate reading areas to draw them on the location plan.

Calculate the horizontal projection of camera control areas including shadows from obstacles on the scene.

Calculate the image size on display of any object in camera view area in percentage of display size, pixels, TV lines and millimeters(inches in case of Imperial format).

Choose right positions and calculate control areas of PTZ cameras, dome cameras and 360 degree cameras.

Get detailed adjustable table of all initial and calculated parameters of cameras in project. Print the table or export it to *.txt, *.csv,*.rtf, *.xls, *.htm formats.

Maintain database of camera models, assign different models for cameras in project, compare models with each other.

Model observed scene parameters (illumination, visibility limitations).

Model camera parameters (spectral response, number of pixels, resolution, minimum illumination at known signal/noise ratio, IRE and aperture, maximum signal/noise ratio, electronic shutter, AGC, BLC, gamma, day/night cameras, frame rate, interlace scan, global shutter and rolling shutter).

Model lens parameters (focal length, aperture, auto iris DC and Video Drive).

Model DVR parameters (brightness, contrast, compression, horizontal and vertical sharpness).

Obtain Image Model for each camera in the project based on models of scene and equipment. This image can be printed and saved.

Model images from megapixel cameras with resolution exceeds screen resolution (Up to 100 megapixel and more!).

Calculate and model in 3D depth of field of each camera in project.

Model moving objects, camera frame rate, create animated images with moving 3D models.

Model blur and distortion of moving 3D models depending on camera parameters (exposure time, interlacing, rolling shutter).

Create animated monitor models as html files with moving 3D models and separate frame rates of each camera.
