Xthings Unveils Xthings One: The On-Prem Security Command Center That Unifies Video, Access, and Workforce Intelligence

Debuting at ISC West, Xthings One replaces fragmented security tools with a single, AI-powered edge platform - no cloud dependency required

LAS VEGAS and SAN JOSE, Calif., March 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- At ISC West 2026, Xthings, a global leader in AIoT and smart security, today introduced Xthings One, a modular, on-premises security command center designed for organizations seeking to unify video surveillance, access control, and workforce intelligence in a single edge platform. Xthings One unifies video surveillance, access control, time and attendance, and visitor management into a single edge-based platform, giving business owners and security teams the clarity and control that fragmented systems have long failed to deliver.

Xthings One brings cameras, access control, time tracking, and visitor management into a single on-premises command center running locally on Xthings Station edge appliances.

Xthings One runs on the Xthings Station series, a family of compact edge appliances designed to deploy the platform directly on-site. Powered by dedicated AI compute modules, the Station series processes video analytics, access events, and operational data locally, eliminating dependence on cloud infrastructure while providing a scalable foundation for unified security and operations.

For too long, SMBs have been caught between enterprise platforms that are too complex and consumer tools that don't scale. Cameras, doors, time clocks, and visitor logs live in separate systems, each with its own subscription, dashboard, and blind spots. When an incident occurs, there is no single place to see the full picture. Xthings One changes that by bringing everything into one timeline, one dashboard, and one source of truth, all running locally on Xthings Station edge appliance, powered by 25 TOPS of AI compute.

"Security for small businesses is broken, not because of hardware, but because of fragmentation," said Raj Sundar, Senior Director of Product Management at Xthings. "Xthings One gives every business a professional-grade security command center that's simple to deploy, doesn't depend on the cloud, and grows with them over time. You start with one problem and scale with confidence."

One Platform, Multiple Starting Points

Xthings One is designed so businesses can start with the problem that matters most to them, then expand as their needs evolve, all on the same system, with one learning curve.

• SecureSite (Video + Incidents): AI-powered video surveillance with detection for people, vehicles, and perimeter events. Smart zones reduce false alarms, access events are automatically linked to video, and a built-in incident workflow moves teams from detection to resolution: acknowledge, assign, resolve, and audit.
• DoorControl (Access + Audit): Enterprise-grade access control without enterprise complexity. Centralized credentials and schedules, fast employee onboarding and offboarding, compliance-ready audit logs, and life-safety integrations including fire release and offline mode.
• TimeGuard (Time + Attendance): Presence-verified time tracking that ties clock-in and clock-out to physical access and location. Flexible shift scheduling, real-time attendance visibility, and payroll-ready exports that integrate directly with existing accounting systems.
• GuestFlow (Visitor Management Add-On): A digital visitor experience with self-check-in, pre-registration, temporary access that expires automatically, and a full audit trail, giving businesses a professional front door with built-in security and compliance.

One Timeline. One Source of Truth.

What sets Xthings One apart is how it links every event – video, door access, and time records, into a single, correlated timeline. When a door opens, the nearest camera clip is automatically bookmarked. When an employee clocks in, their presence is validated against access data. When a visitor checks in, their access and video trace are logged together. No more switching between systems, no more guessing. Every event carries context.

Real-Time AI, Processed On-Device

Xthings One runs entirely on the Xthings Station series edge appliances, which provide dedicated AI compute and local storage for video, access events, and operational intelligence.

All video analytics run locally on the Xthings One edge station's 25 TOPS AI compute module; no raw video is sent to the cloud. Capabilities span three domains of intelligence: security and safety (intrusion detection, loitering, suspicious activity detection, real-time incident alerts), operational intelligence (occupancy monitoring, PPE compliance, behavior and anomaly detection), and vehicle intelligence (license plate recognition, vehicle tracking, parking and loading-zone monitoring). The on-prem architecture is designed for privacy-sensitive environments, with biometric templates for facial recognition and fingerprint authentication stored and matched locally.

A Unified Hardware Ecosystem

Xthings One supports a broad range of devices managed from a single console: access control readers, intelligent locks, and biometric attendance terminals for identity and access; ONVIF-compatible IP cameras for indoor and outdoor surveillance; turnstiles, barrier gates, and perimeter intrusion sensors for flow and perimeter control; and visitor registration kiosks for front-of-house management. The platform uses PoE connectivity to simplify installation and reduce maintenance costs.

Built for Channel Partners

Xthings One is designed with installers and integrators in mind. Faster installs through PoE and edge deployment, fewer systems to support, and a clear upsell path, from doors to video to time to visitors, make it easier to sell and easier to support. The platform delivers SMB-friendly deployment with enterprise credibility.

See Xthings One at ISC West

Xthings One will be on display at ISC West 2026 at the Xthings booth: [Booth #32061].

Xthings Unveils Xthings One: The On-Prem Security Command Center That Unifies Video, Access, and Workforce Intelligence

SHANGHAI, March 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Biomethanol from Shanghai Electric's Taonan project has been successfully bunkered onto the container vessel CMA CGM OSMIUM at Shanghai's Yangshan Port this month. The operation marks the first large-scale adoption of Chinese biomethanol by a global shipping leader, underscoring Shanghai Electric's expanding of its presence in green hydrogen and next-generation fuel technologies.

Coordinated by Shanghai International Port Group from March 5 to 6, the bunkering operation was completed through a simultaneous loading and bunkering model that enables efficient coordination between cargo handling and fuel supply.

The recipient vessel, a next‑generation methanol‑dual‑fuel container ship owned by the CMA CGM Group, was fueled with biomethanol produced by Shanghai Electric, validating the company's fully integrated supply chain model spanning biomethanol production, land‑sea intermodal logistics, and port‑side bunkering.

Shanghai Electric's Taonan project is China's first large-scale commercial biomethanol facility. Located in western Jilin Province, it leverages the region's abundant wind, solar, and biomass resources. The initiative integrates proprietary technologies, including oxygen‑blown pressurized biomass gasification, flexible wind‑powered hydrogen production, and CO₂‑rich syngas‑to‑methanol synthesis, to create a fully integrated biomethanol production system.

Compared with conventional coal‑based methanol, biomethanol delivers a significant reduction in full‑life‑cycle carbon emissions, offering concrete progress toward maritime decarbonization goals. It provides the global shipping industry with a reliable green fuel option, supporting the transition to low‑ and zero‑carbon operations.

This integrated "green power–green hydrogen–green methanol" system addresses local renewable energy consumption and biomass utilization, while offering the shipping industry a stable, efficient, and sustainable low‑carbon fuel. Following systematic optimization, the Taonan facility now operates continuously, producing biomethanol that meets international marine fuel standards and holds International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC EU). The initial phase has an annual output of 50,000 tons, with plans for further expansion.

"The successful bunkering marks a breakthrough for Shanghai Electric in the fields of green hydrogen and next‑generation fuels. Moving forward, Shanghai Electric will continue to deepen its R&D and industrial application of biomethanol technology, strengthening collaboration with global shipping and port operators. With independently developed core technologies and full‑chain solutions, we are committed to contributing solid momentum to the global energy transition and pursuing carbon neutrality in the maritime industry," a Shanghai Electric representative said.
