What is HealthPro Bridge?
HealthPro Bridge is an on-premises internet bridging software application that connects cameras to HealthPro, which runs in the Cloud. It is designed to facilitate health monitoring and firmware updates.
It does not carry video, and so may not be used to connect cameras to OnCloud.
It does not carry metadata, and so may not be used to connect cameras to SightMind.
What are the alternatives to HealthPro Bridge?

Using the CloudConnector app also makes the camera compatible with OnCloud and SightMind.
