Search Through Footage with Video Analytics
In the past, if someone trespassed on your property, you’d need to scour through hours of footage until finding the precise moment the incident occurred. But with video analytic software, you can search through feeds for specific objects and movements.
Let’s say you track down the vehicle of a burglar. Video analytics allows you to search for that license plate to see if it returned. Your system searches through hours and days of footage to quickly find the matching plate. In addition, you can search for colors, faces in your database, and various behaviors to expedite the search process, helping you find the answers you need at lightning speed!
Create Rules to Trigger Actions
A security system isn’t much use if it’s pinging your security team with false alarms all day long. Thankfully, modern surveillance software lets you create ‘rules’ that determine whether or not to notify your security personnel—or even the entire building.
From your security system interface, you can set rules for cameras and establish detection zones that are affected at specific times of the day. You can also create exemptions for rules—for instance, disable certain zones when the system is disarmed.
By programming smart rules, your system notifies you if:
- A person or vehicle passes a certain point—but not an animal
- A car enters the driveway from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m.
- Someone has been loitering for several minutes—but not when dropping off a package
- Someone walks past a trip line after hours but not during the day
- Other unique circumstances transpire
Sync Cameras to Alarms, Access Control, & the Entire System
When your building’s security technologies are integrated into one system, we can program cameras to cue actions from automated doors, locks, and smart lights.
For example, if your surveillance cameras recognize movement in the lobby at an unusual hour, it can trigger lights to brighten and alarms to signal. Likewise, if outdoor cameras catch activity after dark, they will tell landscape lights to turn on, so you’ll have bright, clear video to watch later or in real time.
