AI video intelligence.

Video intelligence pairs camera networks with edge analytics. Operators see what happened, where it happened and when it started.

01Problem

More footage than eyes.

A camera network records around the clock. Operators cannot watch every screen, so incidents are often discovered late and reviewed after the fact.

  1. 01Operators watch screens where nothing happens most of the time.
  2. 02Incidents are often discovered after someone reports them.
  3. 03Reviewing recorded video takes hours per case.

02System · Video intelligence

Detection at the edge.

Each control point pairs a fixed overview camera with a PTZ camera for detail. Analytics on the AI video recorder check the streams against configured event rules and forward each event, with its clip, to the operator.

  • Fixed overview camera

    Constant coverage of the scene, day and night.

  • PTZ camera

    20× optical zoom in the reference configuration, for detail on demand.

  • AI video recorder

    Runs analytics and records video at the edge.

  • Operator console

    Event review, with PTZ control from a joystick console.

03Architecture

From pole to operator.

Cameras connect through a switch at each pole. Wireless links carry the streams to the recorder and the local control point; selected events continue to regional command.

04Capabilities

What the system detects.

Priority 1 · Security

Smoke / fire
Early visual signs of smoke or open flame.
Aggressive behavior
Fights and aggressive movement between people.
Crowd density
People gathering above a set density in a defined zone.
Acoustic event
Explosions, screams or breaking glass, detected from audio.

Priority 2 · Public order

Person down
A fall, for example during a seizure or after an injury.
Unattended object
Items left behind, and suspicious behavior around them.
Smoking in restricted areas
Smoking in public or prohibited places.
Littering
Illegal disposal of waste.
Public-order events
Selected events, such as drinking in public places.

Platform

Event clips
Each event arrives with the recording from the moment it started.
PTZ follow-up
Operators take control of the PTZ camera to inspect an event in detail.
Day and night
Infrared illumination on the PTZ cameras in the reference configuration.
Local recording
Video stays at the edge for later review.

05Operational workflow

Detect. Verify. Respond.

  1. 01

    Detect

    Analytics flag a configured event on a camera stream.

  2. 02

    Classify

    The event gets a type and a priority.

  3. 03

    Alert

    The operator sees the event, the camera and the clip.

  4. 04

    Verify

    The operator checks the live view and takes PTZ control if needed.

  5. 05

    Respond

    A unit goes out over DMR radio, or a warning plays through the IP speaker.

  6. 06

    Record

    The event and its video stay in the archive for review.

06Deployment model

From survey to operation.

Storage is sized to the retention the site needs. Reference configurations keep 10 to 30 days of video, and capacity grows by adding drives.

  1. 01

    Assess

    Camera positions, sight lines, lighting, power and link paths.

  2. 02

    Design

    Coverage plan, detection rules per zone and storage sizing.

  3. 03

    Deploy

    Poles, cameras, switches, radio links and recorders.

  4. 04

    Integrate

    Event routing to local and regional control points.

  5. 05

    Operate

    Monitoring, maintenance and system development.

07Integration

Part of one system.

  • Command and control

    Events appear on the operational map and in the queue.

  • Video search

    Recorded video becomes searchable by person and vehicle attributes.

  • Edge infrastructure

    Batteries, solar power and local recording for remote poles.

  • Connectivity

    Wireless links and network design between poles and control rooms.

  • DMR radio

    Dispatch to field units over their radios.

  • IP speakers

    Voice warnings and announcements at the pole.

Existing cameras can connect where the equipment supports it.
