Video Intrusion Detection
Perimeter security has never been more important. With the rise in value of raw materials, theft is increasingly a problem. Liability for injuries makes it critical to keep people out of unauthorized areas. And government regulations to protect critical infrastructure are raising the bar on required security levels. Of course, even as security demands increase, budgets for actually providing it remain tight.
Security architectures commonly rely on a series of sensors to detect an intruder and a separate network of CCTV cameras to allow personnel to verify alarms.
Vidient’s SmartCatch video intrusion detection changes the rules of the game.
Rather than using separately deployed sensors, it automatically monitors the video feeds coming from the CCTV system, recognizes suspicious activity, and reports it to your guards.
| Fence Sensors | SmartCatch | |
|---|---|---|
| Detects | Intrusions only | Intrusions and threats |
| Area monitored | Fence line only | Configurable areas |
| Tactics to defeat | Climb a ladder | Become invisible |
| Requirements | Properly maintained fence | Cameras you need anyway |
| Installed cost | $20-30/linear foot | $10-15/linear foot |
SmartCatch dramatically lowers the cost of perimeter intrusion detection.
Because it utilizes the CCTV cameras you need anyway, SmartCatch costs 50% less than fence sensors on an installed basis. And while it provides the same sort of volumetric detection as buried cable systems, it costs 70-80% less. See how SmartCatch detects intrusions…
SmartCatch detects threats sooner than traditional sensors.
Rather than waiting until an attack occurs, SmartCatch watches outside the perimeter for threats such as loiterers, approaching intruders and stopped vehicles. See how SmartCatch detects threats before an attack occurs…
SmartCatch lets you react faster.
Unlike traditional sensors, SmartCatch instantly shows you a video clip of the cause of every alarm. There’s no need for guards to select cameras and search video. They can assess each alert in seconds to determine the appropriate response. And if you have PTZ cameras, SmartCatch automatically points them at the intruder and tracks the intruder’s movements through your facility. See how SmartCatch automates alarm assessment…
SmartCatch can be implemented anywhere you can focus a camera.
There’s no need for a properly tensioned fence—or any fence at all. SmartCatch easily secures runways, beaches, parking lots and other facilities where fences and barriers can’t be deployed for safety or aesthetic reasons.
SmartCatch is the next generation of intrusion detection technology. That’s why it’s been deployed at secure government installations, critical infrastructure facilities and corporations worldwide. Get a free demo of SmartCatch to learn more…
