Summary of Standard Technical Features

All of the Videalert solutions are built around a common software framework and the following are standard features of every product:

• Support for static and PTZ cameras, IP or analogue (PAL or NTSC) connections and ability to analyse video feeds from a variety of different camera types: colour/greyscale, day-night hybrid cameras, filtered infrared and thermal imaging
• Dynamic Scene Learning (DSL) enables rapid assimilation of any scene - analysis can begin within seconds of the system being started
• The ability to define Arbitrary Shaped Areas of Interest (AOI) and not be limited to squares or rectangles, so that AOI can deal with objects that are not straight
• The user can define the following using a simple and intuitive GUI:
  • single and multiple overlapping areas of interest (AOI) from a single camera
  • virtual tripwire or perimeter, protecting an object or physical area
  • objects being abandoned
  • people or objects remaining static in a scene for a period of time (car stopped on hard shoulder)
  • people or objects remaining within a scene for a period of time (loitering)
  • definition of minimum and maximum size and shape of objects of interest
  • directional tracking
• People and object counts can be viewed in real-time
• Support for "linked alerts" allows operators to associate the occurrence of separate alert incidents and raise an alert only when multiple incidents occur in a given sequence and/or in a given combination and/or in a given period of time, allowing the system to detect incidents with a level of sophistication that was previously only possible with the direct operator observation
• On the occurrence of an event of interest, the user can define one or more required actions:
  • production of traffic or security video evidence pack, with pre and post alert video
  • UDP or TCP message alerts, allowing interfaces to external systems and consoles
  • email alerts
• Self optimising based on a "set and forget" principle - reduces set up time and further tweaking and optimisation
• Sophisticated analysis graphics enable users to watch what is happening and tune the system
• Full central management console for easy system monitoring and maintenance
