Lisle, IL, October 21st -- Lextech Labs today introduced iRa, the first mobile high-end surveillance application released by the new company this year. iRa is a remote surveillance viewing and control system that puts the power of multiple live video feeds and direct camera pan-tilt-zoom control in the palm of your hand on an iPhone or iPod Touch. The application can be downloaded on the App Store. Interested parties should visit the Lextech Labs website (www.lextechlabs.com/ira) for detailed buying information.

iRa’s intuitive interface lets users access multiple video feeds (from their own security cameras) over WiFi. The capabilities to view videos full screen, physically move cameras, and zoom with a single touch (from an iPod Touch or iPhone) work together seamlessly to create situational awareness. 

Selected from a pool of more than 40 applications, iRa earned the “Coolest iPhone App” award at iPhoneDevCamp2 in San Francisco, CA back in August and has continued to generate interest among the security community worldwide, even before its official release today. 

As part of our integrated demo system with Quickset International at the ASIS show last week, Lextech Labs demonstrated iRa controlling one of their MSS mobile surveillance platforms that included advanced daytime, IR and radar capabilities.
