Sentry Technology Corporation has established itself as a pioneering leader in the security industry since its inception in 1966. Formed through the integration of several key players, including Video Sentry, Knogo North America, and ID Systems, the company specializes in the design and manufacture of advanced traveling robotic CCTV systems. Sentry serves a diverse clientele across multiple continents, including North and South America, Africa, and Australia, demonstrating its global footprint in the security market.
The core offering of Sentry Technology revolves around its innovative traveling video systems, which utilize a PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) camera mounted on a carriage that moves along a ceiling-mounted rail. This design allows for unparalleled visibility of areas that stationary cameras cannot cover, ensuring comprehensive security monitoring. The systems can be operated via joystick control, or remotely through smartphones and tablets, making them user-friendly and versatile.
Since launching its first design in 1997, Sentry has continued to innovate. In 2001, the company introduced SmartTrack®, a travelling carriage equipped with two fully programmable PTZ cameras. This groundbreaking product has seen immense adoption worldwide, with thousands installed in major retail outlets, distribution centers, courier services, and public transportation hubs.
The latest addition to Sentry's product line is the VideoRailway®, which elevates the capabilities of traveling video systems further by integrating advanced HD/IP video technology. This system allows for mobility along both straight and curved rail segments, enhancing flexibility in installation and use within a facility. Remarkably, VideoRailway® ensures backward compatibility with previous analogue models while seamlessly interfacing with current digital networks. Sentry Technology Corporation remains committed to providing state-of-the-art security solutions, pushing the boundaries of technology to meet the evolving needs of its customers.
