"Our intent in creating PSDN is to foster and encourage the development of interoperable solutions through easy access to development tools and technical information." continued Mr. Maddox.
Initial members in the Panasonic Solution Developer Network include AirVisual, a leader in innovative mobile video and remote access solutions; Milestone, the leading global provider of IP video surveillance management software; and S2 Security, an innovator in the development of network-based integrated physical security systems.
