What is ONVIF?
- ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum) is a global and open industry organization that was created to facilitate the development and use of an open standard for physical IP-based security equipment
- The goal of ONVIF is to enable standardized communication between camera devices and create vendor independent interoperability between network video products
- ONVIF now has hundreds of member companies with thousands of ONVIF-compliant devices on the market
