TORONTO, April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Lorex Technology announced the launch of the new X Series, a line of AI-powered security cameras and Network Video Recorders (NVRs) designed for professional security applications. The X Series combines high-performance video surveillance with AI-powered analytics, helping businesses not only capture critical evidence, but also gain insights to improve security, operations, and day-to-day decision-making.
As AI continues to reshape how businesses operate, security systems are evolving beyond basic monitoring. The X Series brings together reliable wired hardware, AI-powered analytics, and the new Lorex Connect app into a single, connected system that helps businesses monitor, manage, and respond in real time.
Built for both installers and business owners, the X Series is designed to be easy to deploy, scalable, and reliable in demanding environments. From retail stores and warehouses to gyms, convenience stores, and construction sites, it combines dependable performance with AI-driven capabilities to support and improve a wide range of business operations.
"At a time when businesses are facing more complex operational and security challenges, the X Series represents a shift from passive monitoring to intelligent protection," said Steve Hong, VP, Global Sales and Marketing at Lorex Technology. "We're enabling businesses not just to see incidents, but to understand, respond, and even prevent them."
X Series: Clear Visibility and Proactive Protection
The X Series delivers high-performance video surveillance designed for demanding environments. Combining crystal clear 4K video with proactive deterrence, it provides clear, reliable footage while helping businesses actively prevent incidents before they occur.
X Series: AI-Driven Security and Business Intelligence
Beyond video surveillance, the X Series uses AI to help businesses better understand and manage their environments. By analyzing activity in real time, it provides actionable insights that improve security, support faster response to incidents, and enhance day-to-day operations. From identifying people, vehicles, and behaviors such as loitering and line crossing to delivering insights through people counting and heat mapping, it enables a more proactive and informed approach to security and operations.
Lorex Connect: A Unified Platform for Control and Insight
At the center of the X Series is the Lorex Connect app, providing instant access to your system from anywhere. It enables businesses to monitor live and recorded footage, receive intelligent real-time alerts, and view multiple cameras at once, helping them stay connected, respond faster, and maintain control at all times.
X Series: A Comprehensive Lineup for Every Business Environment
X5 4K PoE Fixed Cameras (Bullet & Turret)

Combined with Advanced Deterrence, including a built-in siren, white-light illumination, red and blue strobe lights, and 2-way talk, it not only records incidents but actively helps prevent them by drawing attention and discouraging unwanted activity in real time.
X3 4K Motorized Varifocal Cameras (Bullet & Turret)
Along with 4K video and Color Night Vision, the X3 delivers added flexibility through its motorized varifocal lens, allowing users to remotely adjust the field of view using its 4× optical zoom to capture detail at a distance without sacrificing image quality.

VIENNA, April 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Bybit EU, the Vienna-headquartered crypto-asset service provider authorized under the EU Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR), announced the expansion of Bybit Pay into Europe, marking an important step in the company's broader vision to connect crypto more meaningfully with everyday payments and financial utility.
Bybit Pay is Bybit's integrated crypto payments solution that allows users to send, receive, and use digital assets seamlessly within the Bybit app and across supported payment scenarios. It enables near-instant, low-cost transfers between users, supports QR code and wallet-based payments, and facilitates simple conversion between supported cryptocurrencies and fiat where applicable. Users can access Bybit Pay directly through their Bybit account, select the asset they want to use, and complete transactions in just a few steps, including sending funds to another user, paying a merchant, or collecting payments.
Key benefits of Bybit Pay include ease of use, fast settlement, and reduced transaction friction compared to traditional payment methods. It is designed to give users greater flexibility in how they move value, including splitting expenses, transferring funds across borders, and using crypto for everyday payments, while maintaining the security and compliance standards of the Bybit platform.
Bybit Pay in Europe launches with an initial set of capabilities designed around common payment and transfer needs today, while laying the groundwork for broader payment and commerce experiences over time. These include person-to-person transfers, payment collection, on-chain payment flows, selected conversion journeys, and referral-led participation, with more to come within the Bybit ecosystem.
As digital assets continue to mature, the next phase of adoption will depend not only on access, but also on trust, relevance, and ease of use. For crypto to become part of everyday financial life, it must move beyond ownership and become simpler to use in the moments that matter most, such as sending value, collecting funds, managing shared expenses, or moving money more flexibly.
Bybit Pay is part of that evolution. More than a standalone payment feature, it reflects Bybit's broader ambition to build a more connected financial experience, in which digital assets can operate more naturally alongside the ways people already move and manage value.
That ambition extends beyond individual users to the wider payments ecosystem, encompassing merchants, PSPs, and retail partners. Through these collaborations, along with the underlying infrastructure that supports them, Bybit is contributing to the development of a more practical, reliable, and institutionally integrated role for digital assets across everyday payment flows.
With Bybit Pay, users can instantly send and receive crypto, make or collect payments via QR codes or wallet transfers, and convert supported assets within the Bybit platform, all through a seamless in-app experience designed for everyday use.
"Europe represents an important step in the evolution of digital assets from something people hold to something they can use more naturally in everyday life," said Mazurka Zeng, co-CEO of Bybit EU. "With Bybit Pay, we are building a trusted connection between crypto and payments, helping users and ecosystem partners engage with digital assets in a way that feels more practical, intuitive and relevant to real financial behavior."
Built on Bybit's standards for security, reliability, and compliance, Bybit Pay is designed to make crypto transactions clearer, more accessible, and better aligned with everyday user needs. It helps bridge the gap between crypto ownership and real-world utility.
Europe is a meaningful market in that journey. As the region continues to strengthen the foundation for digital asset innovation, Bybit sees a growing opportunity to support users with payment experiences that combine trust, simplicity, and practical use. The expansion of Bybit Pay reflects the company's long-term commitment to serving European users with solutions that make digital assets more usable in everyday contexts.
"Bybit Pay is about making digital assets more usable in the real world. In Europe, we see a strong opportunity to give users a simpler and more confident way to move value through their daily financial lives," Zeng added.
As part of Bybit's vision as The New Financial Platform, Bybit Pay extends the value of the Bybit ecosystem beyond trading. It supports a more holistic user experience in which people can not only access digital assets, but also move, send, receive, and use them with greater confidence and ease. At the same time, it contributes to a broader ecosystem approach in which payments, commerce, and digital finance become more connected over time.
