Manage the planning, configuration, installation and reporting of video security projects with one single app, the Bosch Project Assistant app. Off-site and without connection to the camera, basic configurations can already be set and shared with colleagues before the camera is even installed. On site, those pre-configurations can simply be pushed onto the installed camera, making the installation and configuration procedure easier and less time-consuming. Previously configured cameras can be integrated and updated as well. The camera's field of view can be viewed and adjusted along with other image settings via the app itself. A comprehensive report of the commissioned cameras is automatically generated. With the free Bosch Project Assistant app you get a complete overview of a video security camera project, which makes planning, pre-configuration, commissioning and reporting more efficient, more transparent and more accessible. And, by delivering time-savings on your project of up to 30%, more profitable, too.
