BEDFORD, MA--(Marketwire - May 20, 2009) - VideoIQ , the inventor of the world's first and only intelligent surveillance camera with a built-in DVR, announced today that it has been selected to the 2009 AlwaysOn East 100 List. The AlwaysOn East 100 Award is given to private, emerging technology companies creating new business opportunities in high-growth markets. VideoIQ was selected by the AlwaysOn editorial team based on demonstration of growth, market opportunity, quality of innovation and customer traction.

"We are honored that AlwaysOn has recognized VideoIQ's iCVR as one of the most innovative solutions in the industry," said Scott Schnell, CEO and president of VideoIQ.
