As human observers find it very difficult to monitor the increasing number of video channels typical for today’s surveillance systems, video sensory analysis has quickly become a key element in today’s security applications.
Innovative digital product and system concepts centred on intelligent video analysis and sensor fusion allow the best possible coordination of system functionality with operator requirements, which becomes increasingly important for extensive and complex sites with varying security needs. The efficiency of security operations is enhanced by policy-based alarming, object identification, automatic flagging and preventive risk indication based on high-quality and reliable image analysis. These ‘automated surveillance solutions’ allow security personnel to focus fully on critical situations, while the system supports decision making processes by providing critical information required to reliably detect, manage and prevent potential security breaches in real time.
Especially large sites with an extended perimeter typically represent a large number of video streams and other alarming/sensor devices. Ensuring the safety and security of these sites requires either a large number of personnel (guards or operators) or technology able to aggregate and filter available data to an extent that a single operator can handle and manage available information without fatigue.
Our security solutions assist security professionals with protecting human life, valuable assets and critical Infrastructure around the clock with high accuracy and short response times enabling security forces to prevent incidents before they occur. Our open systems architecture allows us to link to access control and intruder detection solutions for rooms, offices, buildings, even cities, enabling efficient control of interfaces.
Integrated Intelligent video security solutions are generally based on a combination of risk-appropriate protective measures. Siemens develops, produces and designs these measures against intrusion and attacks. User requirements analysis, capability description and project definition to project design, implementation, and commissioning, training and real life support services are all part of our offering.
Siemens with its global presence, know-how and experience provides the most appropriate solution that is operationally effective, cost-efficient, and rapidly implemented anywhere in the world.
Around the globe our solutions support customers in the following sectors:
