We look forward to seeing development proposals from members for not only profiles but also add-ons.” “As profile development can be a lengthy process, add-ons will allow ONVIF to more quickly offer additional capabilities and functionalities that carry the weight of ONVIF conformance to the market. “The demand for more standardised solutions that can solve a wide variety of use cases is only continuing to grow,” said Leo Levit, chairman of the ONVIF Steering Committee. This new concept enhances the ability of ONVIF to more quickly respond to the needs of the market with increased interoperability and flexibility of choice for end-users and systems integrators. If you cannot find in the database a product that claims to be conformant, please click here to inform ONVIF.įor members, the Conformance Process web page provides details on how to submit a conformant product and information on adhering to the ONVIF Brand and Trademark Usage Policy.ONVIF®, the global standardisation initiative for IP-based physical security products, has announced the add-on concept, which extends the ONVIF conformance process to individual product features that can solve a specific use case or end-user need. False conformance claims could include declaring a product to be “ONVIF conformant” or using the ONVIF profile logo on a product when the conformance process has not been followed. Note that products may use ONVIF specifications but they may not claim to be ONVIF conformant without completing the ONVIF Conformance Process. For more information, see the Conformance FAQ page. ONVIF releases new device and client test tools twice a year (June and December), and each test tool version is valid until a new version is released plus a further grace period of about three months. To ensure an existing product is conformant, the product’s firmware/software version must match the version listed for the product in the database. Conformance is tied to a product’s specific firmware/software version and is valid indefinitely for the specific firmware/software version of that product. A product is registered in the database after it successfully passes the relevant ONVIF test tool and all the necessary documents have been submitted to ONVIF by the member manufacturer. This page gives you access to the database of ONVIF conformant products and is the authoritative source for determining whether or not a product is officially ONVIF conformant and supports one or multiple ONVIF profiles.
