AD Group, the parent company of Dedicated Micros Inc., announces it has acquired United Kingdom-based camera manufacturer Baxall Limited. The company had recently been put into receivership under the administration of KPMG Corporate Restructuring.
The acquisition includes Baxall’s intellectual property, current inventory, as well as production equipment, according to AD Group.
The Baxall products, which will now be marketed and sold by Dedicated Micros, include the series of ICE-Dome cameras that incorporate a 3-axis GyroView set-up allowing the camera to be positioned to cover any aspect of a scene.
“This acquisition represents the continuous commitment of our group to bring innovative technologies to the security industry along with creating interoperable solutions easing the integration,” says Dr. Alan E. Calegari, president and CEO of Dedicated Micros Inc. Americas Region. “Adding the core competency of this very critical component in video management applications will allow Dedicated Micros to bring the market applications that are valuable – both commercially and technologically.”
Dedicated Micros will continue to sell Baxall’s high resolution ICE and ICE+ camera series. The company plans to integrate its NetVu connected technology into the ICE IP series, but will sell the existing cameras until the integration is complete, according to the company.
