The latest update introduces new features designed to save time, simplify remote management, and provide greater control over cameras directly from your smartphone. While some enhancements improve the everyday user experience, others offer valuable tools for security professionals looking to optimize the maintenance and management of their installations.
Best of all, these new features are just the beginning of the continuous evolution of VESTA Advanced, the mobile application that keeps growing to deliver increasingly intelligent video surveillance management.
What’s New in VESTA Advanced 2.5.0
Low-Latency Video Playback
Finding a specific moment in recorded footage is now significantly faster.
The new low-latency playback feature allows users to navigate the timeline almost instantly using the search bar, while also functioning as a fast-forward tool. This makes locating incidents within seconds much easier and significantly improves video review efficiency.
More Image Settings Available Directly from the App
There’s no longer any need to access additional platforms to configure multiple camera parameters.
With VESTA Advanced, users can now adjust:
- WDR mode
- SMART IR.
- Day/Night mode
- IR illumination and white light
- Image flip
- Standard or Enhanced color mode
All these settings are accessible from a single interface, streamlining both system commissioning and remote maintenance.
SD Card Formatting from Your Smartphone
Another practical enhancement is the ability to format the SD card installed in the camera directly from the application.
This feature is especially useful during maintenance tasks or SD card replacement, eliminating the need for physical access to the device.
One-Touch Active Deterrence Control
Cameras equipped with active deterrence now include a new padlock icon that allows users to quickly enable or disable the built-in lights and siren directly from the application.
At present, this feature controls the deterrence devices only. Event notification synchronization will be included in a future update.
WideSeek: Intelligent Search Comes to VESTA Advanced
One of the most significant additions in this release is WideSeek, the new AI-powered intelligent search feature.
Initially compatible with the IPC-T/B38-A180-AS-PV panoramic cameras, this technology enables users to search recorded footage based on detected object types.
WideSeek supports searches for:
- People
- Vehicles
- Non-motorized vehicles
Additional filters, such as object color, can also be applied, dramatically reducing the time required to locate a specific event.
