Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA) will become common to most CCTV installations,
as software development increases accuracy and abilities in future:
- Centralized: IVA software on a PC, added to an existing CCTV system (NVR and/or software or PC with 3rd party software)
- De-centralized: IVA can be added inside selected IP cameras (On-board processing, only stream the events)
Your camera system can do the following, to name but a few:
FOR COMPLEXES
- TRIPWIRES: Draw lines along perimeter on the software (alarm, SMS, email, voice warning message, Public Address)
- PEOPLE COUNTING: Count in / out. Cars / people
- MISSING OBJECT / FOREIGN OBJECT: Instant alarm when fixed fittings are stollen / Foreign objects are placed
- ANPR: Automatic Number Plate Recognition (log registration no.s, trigger gate for registered owners)
- FACE RECOGNITION: Verify faces when entering at access gate camera
- FORENSIC SEARCH: - Quick search of object with set sizes, speed, colour crossing a tripwire.
- DWELL IN AREA: Alarm upon dwelling in area (parking not allowed...)
- MAPPED LAYOUT: Quick & easy camera location & view on mapped camera position
FOR RETAIL
- POS: Point of Sale interface - super imposing till data on video, with quick search of transactions
- HEAT MAPS: Track customers' most visited areas, improve posisitioning of ads, staff, etc.
- MISSING OBJECT & FOREIGN OBJECT: Alarm upon theft of fixtures, placement of suspiscious objects
- FACE RECOGNITION: Verify faces when entering shop, shopping trends, warnings
VIDEO ANALYTICS USES (see "Videos" Page)
- TRIPWIRE: Draw a line on the software along the fence image
When a person moves across the line, an alarm will trigger on the software
An audio message warns the guard ("movement at south gate")
The guard confirms visually & responds by speaking to the intruder,
or an automated pre-recorded message is played
A trigger can be activated to switch on lights / siren / open gate...etc.
- LPR: License plate registering, automate access for residants (white list)
Be warned about unwanted trespassers (black list)
OTHER OPTIONS: (concept ideas)
- WI-FI ACCESS: Create a WiFi Mesh within a complex, use tablets/cell phones WiFi, in each house
Guards can contact resident via Skype (audio & video) - free call, see & hear visitor
Guard scans visitor ID / driver's license with EVIM handheld unit (GPRS to cloud)
Residents can view selected cameras via an App on a cell phone or tablet
Body corporate shares info with residents on WhatsApp (typed, audio, pictures, video)
Shared internet access across complex (saves money, complex generates income)
Includes VOIP phone abilities & panic buttons
