Enhanced Search Page
Version 4.7 has a freshly-designed search page, the first of many search page improvements coming. The new search layout is more intuitive, and includes a number of new search features, including the ability to set start time and end time. The search results appear in a dynamic timeline that scales appropriate to the start and end time parameters. The cleaner layout enables more screen real estate for the video windows.

The new Search Page is in the 4.7 versions of exacqVision Start, Pro, and Enterprise.
Client Login/Logout
A new enhanced security feature in version 4.7 adds the ability, on a per-server basis, to require user login for each connection. This new setup option appears on the Add Systems page:
When that login parameter is chosen, a prompt for user login credentials will appear when attempting to connect to that system:

Real-time Dewarping for 360-degree cameras
Support has been added for real-time dewarping for 360-degree cameras and lenses, including those from ImmerVision. Expanded Digital PTZ Settings on the Camera Setup page enable configuration of the 360-degree parameters:
In the fully zoomed-out mode, the camera shows the entire view in the warped mode:
Using exacqVision’s Digital PTZ, you can zoom in and pan around the image in a fully dewarped mode. You can also set up multiple camera views, giving the effect of multiple, individual cameras watching different parts of the viewing field:
