Bosch.
“I have always tried to create only those products that can withstand the most rigorous testing – products that prove themselves to be excellent in every respect.” Robert Bosch
The Bosch Group is a leading manufacturer of automobiles and industrial equipment, consumer goods, and construction equipment.
The company was founded by Robert Bosch (1861–1942) in 1886 in Stuttgart as a precision mechanics and electrical engineering workshop.
The initial staff of the company with a share capital of 10,000 German marks consisted of one mechanic and one apprentice.
Almost all profits from the workshop's activities were invested in new equipment.
In the first years of its existence, the company was mainly engaged in the production and sale of electrical equipment of all types — from telephones to remote water level alarms.
In 1887, the first magneto ignition system was developed for one of the engineering companies. Already in 1898, the first representative office of the company was opened in Great Britain, in 1905 — the first production plant in France, and in 1912 — in the USA.
The Bosch Group currently comprises Robert Bosch GmbH and over 300 subsidiaries and regional representative offices in more than 60 countries worldwide. Together with the group's sales and service partners, Bosch is present in approximately 150 countries.
The special founding structure of the Bosch Group guarantees its financial independence and freedom of enterprise.
It enables the company to plan its activities over the long term and to make significant investments that secure its future.
And for more than 100 years, the name Bosch has been synonymous with modern technologies, innovations, high reliability and product quality, thanks to which the corporation has earned the well-deserved trust of its business partners and customers.
In Russia, Bosch presents a wide range of high-quality products: from car parts, diagnostic equipment and power tools to household appliances, industrial equipment and security systems.
The Bosch Security Systems division is the pride of the concern, because the inventions and technologies in the field of security offered by Bosch have become key to the development of the entire industry as a whole.
Bosch has been dealing with fire detection issues since the beginning of the 20th century.
For more than 80 years, Bosch has been producing reliable fire alarm systems.
From the very beginning, the goal was to minimize time and increase the reliability and reliability of security systems, so giving top priority to innovative solutions is a long-standing Bosch tradition.
In 2002, the Bosch Group acquired the Communications, Security and Image Processing division of the Dutch company Philips BV.
In 2006, Bosch expanded its holdings by acquiring Telex Communications Holdings (Dynacord, Midas, Klark Teknik, Electro-Voice, RTS, Telex). And in 2008, a large Canadian video surveillance company, Extreme CCTV Inc., was acquired.
Currently, the Security Systems division of Bosch provides a wide range of equipment:
Video surveillance, including the most modern IP solutions from the ability to remotely control camera settings and encrypt the digital stream when transmitting over open networks to IVA intelligent video analysis technology.
IVA can be safely called a virtual security service from Bosch, built directly into the camera or encoder, which makes it unnecessary to have a central server for analyzing video data.
Access control with a unique ability to be installed as a web server in any browser with Java support.
In addition to controlling the opening and closing of doors, the system supports patrol routes, controlling the opening of gates from a car, and tracking attendance.
Security systems using innovative motion detection technologies, with maximum protection against unauthorized entry, reduce the number of false alarms to a minimum.
With features such as reducing the number of false alarms, audible alarm verification, allowing you to immediately contact the panel by phone and listen to what is happening in the protected area, the system has been awarded in the relevant category.
Fire and security systems for a wide range of applications include a range of highly accurate fire detection systems with minimal risk of false alarms.
The unique design of the panels allows each system to be precisely tailored to the specific needs of the customer.
Voice/evacuation notification is the ideal solution for conditions that require immediate response, impeccable message clarity and absolute reliability.
Excellent sound quality, system versatility and a continuous improvement program make Bosch voice alarm/evacuation systems the market leader.
The music broadcasting and professional sound systems reproduce an extremely wide range of low and high tones, allowing excellent music sound and clear, intelligible speech to be transmitted over long distances at high volume.
Conference systems with the most flexible discussion connection are an excellent solution for use in non-standard conditions, such as meetings with a large number of participants or meetings in historical buildings.
The wireless discussion congress system is designed to be as easy to use as possible.
Thanks to the protection function against interference from mobile phones and other equipment using WIFI, Bluetooth or microwave technologies, the purity of the transmitted sound will not be affected.
The paging/personal security system ensures complete security in residential areas, sanatoriums, nursing homes and hospitals.
Wireless peripherals allow you to be free, while being under constant control of the medical and social care system.
Bosch Security Systems also offers comprehensive solutions that allow you to implement the management and integration of all security systems.
All solutions based on Bosch Security Systems equipment are highly efficient and easy to operate.
The division has over 15 airports, nuclear power plants, automobile factories, shopping centers, exhibition complexes, sports facilities, banks, and theaters.
For example, over 60% of all sports and infrastructure facilities at the 2004 Olympics in Greece were equipped with Bosch security systems.
Bosch equipment is also installed at such facilities as the airport in Madrid, the border control point in the United Arab Emirates, the tallest building in the world, Burj Dubai, the Bolshoi Theater, the European Shopping Center in Moscow, the Social Vigilance project in St. Petersburg, etc.
In the short term, Bosch Security Systems notes the presence of excellent opportunities in the security systems market in connection with the implementation of large infrastructure projects in preparation for the 2014 Olympic Games in Sochi, the European Football Championship in Ukraine in 2012,
The Universiade in Kazan and the Asian Winter Games in Kazakhstan in 2011.
To carry out these events, it will be necessary to carry out a significant amount of work in a short time frame on the development of infrastructure and related construction projects, for example, in the area of development of the hotel business and transport networks.
