Agent Vi’s Real-Time Event Detection software transformed the surveillance system into a proactive tool that alerts security operators when an artwork is tampered with, or a suspicious object is left behind. Instant video notification enables security staff to view the event and dispatch an officer accordingly. TU also employs Agent Vi’s Video Search to reduce time spent searching through recorded video during time-sensitive investigations.

Agent Vi’s real-time event detection solution has detected multiple instances of intruders at the solar farm sites, generating an alarm which is viewed by a security guard at a remote monitoring station. The guard makes an announcement via the speakers at the site to warn off the intruder, and if necessary, instructs police to attend the site. The solution successfully differentiates between irrelevant movement and genuine perimeter breaches, ensuring a very low false alarm rate (FAR).

The security team now has much greater awareness and enhanced ability to respond to concerns and incidents, providing a more secure environment for guests and staff. The video analytics generates alerts when: a person enters through the exit doors, a suspicious object is left behind, an unauthorized vehicle enters the car park, and more. Agent Vi’s people-counting capabilities also allow the security team to know when maximum room capacity is reached.

The solution deployed at these manufacturing facilities has ensured a superior level of surveillance for ASO Siderurgica. Immediately after installation, the security team started receiving detections of unauthorized people and cars at the sites. With the instant display of the intruders’ movement paths in the Genetec Live Viewer, the company security team now operates at an optimal level.

The level of security has been increased through early intrusion detection. This added layer of security has helped KDL Trans’ efforts to build business relations with new and existing clients, as they point to the superior level of security offered at their site. Furthermore, the real-time alerts sent to the monitoring station have enabled a decrease in the number of security guards stationed around the perimeter, effectively cutting costs without lowering the level of security.

Agent Vi’s real-time event detection software alerts corrections staff immediately to breaches of defined secure zones, allowing them to decide – as the event occurs – how to best respond to the incident. Such alerts have proven to be much more effective than visual monitoring of screens in the master control station by Corrections staff. The solution is considered an integral component of Scott County Jail’s surveillance system, with the Corrections Officers finding it easy to use.

As a result of the automatic detections made by Agent Vi’s software, and the audio and visual alarms triggered, Spyke’s guards are immediately aware of any security breaches, incidents and suspicious behavior occurring at their sites, allowing real-time responses to the events. In one case, Spyke Security notified police to the entry of an intruder at a vacant construction site that they secure, following an automatic detection by Agent Vi’s software. The surprised thief was apprehended by the police.

The video analytics is seamlessly integrated to provide an additional layer of security at the site. Agent Vi’s real-time solution generates alerts when pre-defined security breaches occur. These alerts are followed up by the security staff on site, who may dispatch guards in line with the threat level perceived.

Agent Vi’s people counting solution provides valuable data regarding the number of customers in each store. A daily footfall report is generated in each store, supplying management with important information about customer numbers and trends. The data allows Telkom to measure the effectiveness of their monetary investment in different campaigns. The footfall reports also provide the Operations Department with a better understanding of customer behavior and the flow of people in the Telkom stores.

The management team has access to data regarding the number of people entering and exiting the complex, enabling planning of security procedures and promotional activities. There is understanding of numbers of shoppers present on each floor at any time, allowing management of insurance concerns related to maximum occupancy limits. The video feeds analyzed by savVi also offer valuable information indicating dwell time of customers in the window displays and traffic into stores.
