CCTV analytics perimeter security solution. It WORKS!

Posted on by

CCTV video analytics.

Video analytics has been a technology that has been talked about for a long time but at last it has  now finally arrived in a format that works reliably and achieves the results that will make customers keen to upgrade their legacy CCTV systems.

CCTV Alarms.

Used to alert the end user of an unusual event or an intrusion into a protected area it helps to give security managers a better insight to events and alarms occurring on their site. There are many types of events that can be raised to his attention and these include.

People counting

Speed monitoring

Facial detection

Loitering

Perimeter protection

Fall detection

Queue length monitoring

Panic alarm

Object abandonment.

And more to boot.

Advanced CCTV software.

Video analytics works by using advanced software to detect in real time changes within the view of the camera, far more advanced than motion detection, all analogue cameras currently in use in the UK can be converted to use this technology. It’s a simple process just install a unit called a codec. The codec is attached to the camera and behind the scenes converts all the video into a format that analyses events and through a set of clean contacts an alarm can be raised in a variety of different ways.

IP CCTV codec.

The codec is an IP device and is programmed through a laptop or if connected to a network it can be remotely administered. Xtralis, Bosch and March Networks all produce units that excel in video analytics.

CCTV Airport!

Examples of where analytics can be used to great effect include ports and airports combating threats of terrorism especially identifying abandoned objects, Protecting classic art using analytics means museums can also benefit from this feature.

CCTV perimeter protection.

Perimeter protection is another area that has seen far better security thanks to trip wire features and the ability to detect movement in a certain direction. Integrating analytics with FLIR thermal imaging cameras is an excellent example of how a sensitive area during hours of total darkness can suddenly be secured where before this would have been impossible.

Codecs.

Setting up the codec’s is a relatively simple task. Perspective is important to ensure only the objects or human movements are detected and things such as wildlife are totally ignored. A great advance for the industry analytics are now being incorporated directly into the heads of cameras and the Predator camera from 360 vision is the first 360 dome camera that can deal with analytics while on a tour something of a dream for security guards who are tasked with monitoring large establishments or estates.

CCTV investment.

As the investment goes heavily into this technology from the big manufactures we see the number of applications increasing and soon analytics will be commonplace in many businesses across the UK

Integrated security systems from Xtralis. V3100

Posted on by

Integrated security systems from Xtralis.

Xtralis have recently produced a complete portfolio of their latest product information in preparation for the release of their new network video recorder/transmitter,  the Xtralis V3100.

Intelligent video solution.

The V3100 is an intelligent video solution incorporating some superb features and aimed at end users where secure transmission and recoding solutions are extremely important.The unit is capable of fast post-motion searching and can fully integrate to the Xtralis Access control package, the S3000. The V3100 is a hybrid unit and can be designed to suit the installation, to order. The unit can currently accept Axis IP cameras although other manufacturers IP cameras will soon be part of the overall suite.

The new era.

The V3100 is part of Xtralis’s march back into the market place after a little time in the wilderness. Historically we have seen them mainly as CCTV transmission specialists only they now have a DVR recording solution that can compete competitively with some of the more recognised leaders in high end spec DVRs. The portfolio consists of other products that compliment the new DVR. The first is V3001 IP digital matrix that enables images to be distributed from several sources to display screens, in addition we have the V3500 that enables unlimited storage, both on or off site. The management platform (CCTV software) is the M3000 command and control software and operates an open database for import and export purposes. It integrates fully to all the other products in the Xrtalis range.

Built to order.

Xtralis build these units to order in the heart of Europe, in spite of this  delivery times into the UK are exceptionally good. Another important development is that central stations are currently accepting the new units happily as one of the key benefits we see is that reliability and flexibility are at the heart of this product. With Xtralis however, this is something we have come to expect .

A complete security solution.

So as we have now seen, Xtralis have now built a portfolio of integrated security solutions that concentrate on proactive rather than reactive detection. The goal is to protect people and property by enabling remote sources to instigate a response to prevent damage before, rather than after a security breach, but now we have the recording solution and CCTV software packages to back this up.
