BEDFORD, MA--(Marketwire - May 19, 2009) - VideoIQ , the inventor of the world's first and only intelligent surveillance camera with a built-in DVR, announced today that Network Products Guide has named VideoIQ a winner of the 2009 Best Products and Services Award. This respected annual award honors products and services that represent the rapidly changing needs and interests of technology end-users worldwide.
