Intrusion detection

ioimage intrusion detection provides surveillancewatch automation that automatically detects prohibited intrusion scenarios and can be used on stationary cameras as well as on PTZ cameras. There are several modes for detection: Regional Entrance, Tripwire and Fence Trespassing. Regional Entrance: Provides an alarm when a person or vehicle moves within a prohibited area. Detection can be defined to prohibit entrance from a specific direction while ignoring entry from other directions and can be independently defined for people or vehicle detection, each allowing distinct directional criteria. Thus, detection in the same scene can be limited to only vehicles traveling the wrong way while simultaneously detecting persons that leave public circulation areas. ioimage wide-area intrusion detection capabilities can be used in place of many types of straight-line or single-point sensors that provide rudimentary detection which alarms on anything that moves, such as PIR, ground sensors, etc. Limiting focus to persons or vehicles that match the size and movement behavior criteria and alerting with instant video verification, reduces non-essential security mobilization on spurious activity and provides additional information for security responders to effectively dispatch while maintaining scene safety.

Tripwire: Provides an alarm when a person or vehicle breaches a demarcation line of separation. Detection can be specified to prohibit any crossover or to allow movement in a single direction. Tripwire detection ignores movement in parallel to specified lines and only detects if the lines are crossed. The tripwire feature allows the definition of more than one line per scene and multiple segments per single line. Ideal for detecting persons or vehicles passing
access control points or crossing a property line.

Fence Trespassing: Offers fast configuration for guarding against fence jumpers and breaching of security fence perimeters. Detection can be specified to prohibit incoming and outgoing movements. Perfect for detecting persons or vehicles crossing fence boundaries.

loitering

Provides an alarm when a person remains in an area for a prolonged period of time. Offers an adjustable alert time for different scenarios, alerts of suspicious behavior in crowded areas, crowd gathering, squatting, trespassing and soliciting.

object removal detection

provides an alarm when an item is removed from its last location. Detection can be defined to immediately alarm when an object is removed or to allow temporary removal of an object provided the object is restored to the same location within the specified time limit.

This functionality can be used to record and notify when an item is removed. Ideal for monitoring and tracking high-ticket retail items, preventing computer or furnishing theft, alerting on scrap metal theft, identify memorial marker damage, stored vehicle/equipment theft, fixed safety shroud/device removal, etc.

autonomous ptz tracking

Imperative for well-rounded site security and overcoming the shortfalls of ridged video surveillance coverage, the ioimage autonomous PTZ tracking module provides self-directed vision-guided tracking to target a moving object. With the automatic acquiring capabilities, the target is kept in-site and in-focus providing magnified identification and information gathering possibilities. This is performed by automatic commanding of the mechanical pan, tilt, and zoom of a PTZ camera as needed to assure the camera maintains constant visual on the target.

Freeing security personnel from manually operating a PTZ joystick, automated tracking can be initiated in several ways including manual
selection of a moving object via monitor software automatically, from intrusion detection on the PTZ camera presets, or from a stationary camera detection that is automatically handed off.

The included PTZ synchronization hand-off feature provides more than a simple jump-to-preset; it translates one camera's scene to the other allowing the PTZ camera to acquire a specific object location from among multiple objects wherever it is. Thus, the object doesn't need to be in the location of a predefined preset nor does the tracking require the directive assistance of a second camera or triangulating sensors.

A crucial solution to the immanent problem of intruders moving out of stationary surveillance camera views, PTZ tracking is not reliant on the security personnel being at the console when the alarm is triggered. Automatically initiated on alarm event, it independently tracks and visually relays a moving targets location rather than security responding blindly to the first detected location.

stopped vehicle detection

Provides an alarm when a vehicle stops in a controlled area where parking, abandonment, standing, or breakdowns are of interest. Provides an adjustable delay time that allows tailored detection for unique scenarios. Ideal for preventing blocked driveways, parking enforcement, rail crossings, suspicious parking outside perimeters, traffic lane breakdowns, etc.

unattended baggage detection

Provides an alarm when an item (package, debris, baggage, etc.) is deposited or appears in a controlled area. In addition, detection can be configured to ignore items that are attended by a nearby person.

Helps reduce the need for patchy roving patrols and provides rapid detection and pre-alarm recording so that abandon luggage owners can be located more rapidly. Provides detection for disguised objects that may be overlooked by passing patrols or regarded as familiar.

With rapid response and additional information on how the baggage arrived, responders have more time and benefit from greater situational awareness for scene safety and decision-making. Baggage can not only be detected when carried into a scene by a person, but can also be detected when the baggage is dropped or thrown into a scene from off-camera. In addition, baggage can be detected even if it appears while the scene is temporarily blocked. The unattended baggage detection offers three levels to match the requirements of the scene, unattended detection in sterile areas, semi-crowded areas, as well as detection in crowded scenarios for the presence of stationary baggage.

Ideal for identifying the appearance of potential baggage bombs, rail-line obstruction hazards, fallen rocks, dumping/littering, traffic-lane/runway debris, etc.
