Info 4 Security Publish Major Article on 2020 Imaging

Following a visit to our offices, Brian Simms, chief editor of Info4security was sufficiently impressed by our innovative approach to command and control and gane changing approach to system wide physical system management that Info4Security wrote a major piece on the company its background, its philosophy and future direction.

Our vision is substantial

"We are drowning in information, while starving for wisdom. The world henceforth will be run by synthesizers, people able to put together the right information at the right time, think critically about it, and make important choices wisely." E. O. Wilson

We are moving to a world where a systems networking logic becomes applicable in every realm of daily activity, in every location and every context.

Castells envisages a system where billions of miniature, ubiquitous inter-communication devices will be spread worldwide, "like pigment in the wall paint".

2020Tuch Control was designed from the ground up to create a user interface and operation platform to deal with the huge explosion of data that will be generated by such systems. The capacity to integrate CCTV, building automation and security systems across numerous locations. It connects multiple systems into a single, intuitive interface that automates noti cations and interactions between systems. Rede ning the future in complex data management in the area of command and control.

The future cannot be predicted, but futures can be invented.
