As we say goodbye to 2018 and hello to 2019, it’s a time for new beginnings, new approaches and new outlooks.

So, why not start by adding a new dimension to your security offering; growing and developing your business potential, while ensuring your end users are provided with an even more interactive, robust and secure security solution?

You can, by protecting from the perimeter with the Pyronix total Wi-Fi solution.

Utilise the Enforcer control panel, which comes with DIGI-WIFI communication for free as standard, alongside the entire arsenal of Pyronix two-way wireless perimeter peripherals and the outdoor    Wi-Fi Mini Dome Camera. All this is integrated and controllable remotely from anywhere with PyronixCloud infrastructure and the ProControl+ smart device application, featuring voice push notifications which will grab the users’ attention.

With this system, you can completely tailor the solution with an added layer of security protection: fortifying from the perimeter inwards. This same solution will allow you to finish more jobs, generate recurring revenue, increase customer retention and diagnose and resolve systems without necessarily having to go to site.

Protection starts with the perimeter

One of the most effective ways to prevent intruders is to detect them before they get the opportunity to break in.

Throughout the year, awareness of the perimeter is a challenge, with vastly fluctuating weather conditions and temperatures causing all kinds of issues for outdoor detection.

By installing the XDL12TT-WE outdoor detector, along with the MC1/SHOCK-WE and MC1MINI-WE, you can be sure the property is secured, while adding the Wi-Fi Mini Dome camera enables the user to video monitor and verify any outdoor activity.

The XDL12TT-WE utilises enhanced technologies to overcome extreme outdoor conditions and swaying vegetation, for assured performance throughout 2019, while the MC1/SHOCK-WE and MC1MINI-WE will ensure doors and windows are secure. Meanwhile, adding a Deltabell-WE will provide the ideal visual deterrent for any potential intruders, as well as an ideal advertising opportunity for your business; increasing brand awareness.

Add ProControl+ into the mix, integrating the system via PyronixCloud, and the user will also enjoy total security confidence with remote control and video monitoring capabilities from anywhere. The smart device application also boasts voice push notifications to alert the user of any activity on the system so that they are able to react and take appropriate action, alongside the ability to check system status, set and unset, check history and more.

So, should the XDL12TT-WE be programmed as a switcher zone and pick up an intruder, it will signal to the Enforcer and the user will receive a ‘Perimeter Breached’ voice push notification via the app to alert them of the activity. The user can then switch to the Wi-Fi Mini Dome Camera to visually verify the activity so that they can then take appropriate action. Therefore, the awareness of your user is maximised before any potential break-in attempt can even take place.

Wi-Fi communications as standard

The Enforcer is supplied with a DIGI-WIFI module for free as standard, so that the solution delivers PyronixCloud and ProControl+ capability right out of the box; connecting quickly and easily to the user’s existing Wi-Fi network.

This adds more to your offering, as the system can work as a stand-alone bells-only system, or can be fitted with the DIGI-WIFI to deliver all the added function and benefits of PyronixCloud and ProControl+.

PyronixCloud infrastructure are delivers a whole host of benefits to you and your business, with remote diagnostics and programming alongside Automatic Remote Maintenance using InSite UDL software; optimising efficiency and saving you both time and money. The PyronixCloud also generates streams of recurring revenue, giving high retention rates and year-on-year income for heightened longevity and making the system more profitable for you to install in the longer term.

Furthermore, as the Enforcer connects through a cloud server, there is no need to set up static IP addresses or configure the network connection onsite, instead you simply need to set up the account on PyronixCloud.com.

Optimise your business with fast & efficient installation

The Enforcer control panel boasts uniformed fully menu-driven programming to enhance installation efficiency. It also utilises multi-award-winning Pyronix two-way wireless technology for a much cleaner and efficient installation than wired, without compromising on security.

Traditional wired installations used to comprise of drilling holes, running cables, lifting floorboards and much more. This was often time consuming and very invasive. A wireless installation reduces this significantly, while providing the same levels of coverage.

As in a wired system, should a cable be broken or damaged, the panel would notify of a fault. Pyronix multi-award-winning two-way wireless utilises full supervision; allowing the Enforcer to monitor the system similarly to how it would a wired to ensure full working condition, while instant two-way device control (ITDC) delivers enhanced security with increased battery life.

All Pyronix two-way wireless peripherals feature a high-sensitivity antenna which provides a superior wireless signal range without the need for repeaters, again saving you valuable time and money on installation. Utilising Gaussian Frequency Modulation (GFM) optimises Pyronix’ wireless protocol; spreading the signal, while reducing unwanted noise and harmonics. All Pyronix devices also feature signal strength indicators and one-push-to-learn functionality; meaning that you don’t have to keep referring to the panel so that installation efficiency is again optimised to save you time and enhance the service experience of the user.

Furthermore, the security and robustness of the system is maintained over the long term, with any jamming attempts detected and messages received in real-time, with 128-bit wireless encryption delivering a very high-level of protection and reliability. Giving both you and your users total peace of mind that the system is dependable and safe.

So, start 2019 the right way, by adding new dimensions to your professional security offerings, with the Pyronix total Wi-Fi solution.

Hikvision, the world’s leading supplier of innovative video surveillance products and solutions, has released its new 4MP Network IR PTZ Camera (DS-2DF9C435IH-DLW), doubling the resolution of the previous model for even more clarity in dark places.

In 2017 Hikvision launched DarkFighter technology – taking inspiration from the way human eyes work. It uses one lens to capture the colour of objects, and another captures light details in particular. The camera then combines two images together to create one image with both colour and clarity. Now the technology has moved on, with a higher resolution, smarter event detection and a clear enough image to enable to enable facial recognition in the future.

The new DarkFighterX camera employs 1/1.8” sensors to raise resolution to 4 megapixels. This ‘beyond-HD’ image carries twice the amount of information as 2 MP models. The camera can also deliver full colour images at light levels down to 0.0005 Lux. This also means that, in the future, facial recognition could be possible, even in dim light, thanks to powerful imaging ability and beyond-HD resolution.

To detect suspected events effectively, intelligent cameras armed with Deep Learning technology, can now offer more than ever before. Since smart event detection has become prevalent throughout security systems – such as intrusion detection and line crossing detection – it is essential to make sure that cameras receive more details before triggering an automatic response. And all of the information depends on how many pixels the image can provide, therefore the more pixels the better.

The zoom on the new DarkFighterX camera has increased to 35x. This means the new camera is able to identify a one-metre-long object at 260 metres at a resolution of 250 pixels – enough to observe the object clearly. It has an optical zoom of 16x.

The camera has been equipped with an auto wiper to guarantee a better image on rainy days. This function is secured by a rain-detecting sensor on the head of the surface.

Other features include:
– 120 dB WDR, 3D DNR, Chromatic Defog
– Supports H.265+/H.265 video compression
– Rapid focus
– Up to 250m IR distance with Smart IR
– IP67.

The DarkFighterX series cameras come into their own in exterior dimly-lit environments that need 24/7 full-colour footage, such as streets, rivers, forests, roads, railways, ports, squares and parks.

Artificial Intelligence allows machines to do jobs previously done by people. When it comes to security and surveillance, this technology allows cameras and control room equipment to identify a wide range of threats automatically and in real time across hundreds or even thousands of cameras – allowing security teams to take immediate action to protect people and assets.

Video surveillance cameras are the electronic eyes of any security operation. In the past, human supervision was needed to make sense of the images captured, and to assess whether certain events posed a security risk or not. With some organisations using hundreds or even thousands of cameras to protect their people and assets, manual review of footage is simply impossible – potentially leaving them vulnerable to security breaches.

To help organisations overcome this challenge, and to optimise their security, Hikvision has built advanced Artificial Intelligence technology into our surveillance solutions. This means that our cameras, control-room equipment and back-end infrastructure can now ‘learn’ about potential threats for themselves by recognising people, vehicles and even behaviours.

Improving all aspects of security with ‘proactive’ detection and prevention
The manual interventions needed with traditional security systems mean that teams were frequently reacting to breaches that had already happened. Artificial Intelligence changes all this by recognising potential threats before they impact company’s people or assets – allowing security teams to react immediately to neutralise any potential threat.

For example, Hikvision Artificial Intelligence solutions can automatically trigger alerts when a person appears in a restricted area, or when a vehicle with a blacklisted number plate enters a site. With alerts delivered in real time, teams can identify and react to security threats and protect people and assets more effectively. And because alerts are automated, potential threats are hardly missed or overlooked.

How does Artificial Intelligence work?
Artificial Intelligence systems become more intelligent over time, building databases of potential threats and reacting to new events accordingly. This allows systems to ‘think for themselves’ and to alert teams of any suspicious events or people who are caught on camera.

Hikvision’s Artificial Intelligence technologies use advanced algorithms based on Deep Learning to distinguish between different kinds of security events and threats. Technologies incorporated into the Hikvision portfolio include:

• Facial recognition

which allows law enforcement personnel to identify suspects and commercial teams to identify VIP customers in real time.

• Vehicle identification

which can be used to identify vehicle number plates, and recognise different types of vehicles (even down to make and model), or to trigger alerts when vehicles enter restricted areas.

• Perimeter protection

which helps organisations to identify real threats by distinguishing people and vehicles from other moving objects and keeping false alarms to a minimum.

• Business intelligence

which employs people counting, queue detection, and heat mapping technologies, so that organisations can enhance operational efficiency by making use of the data report.

Why is Artificial Intelligence great news for businesses?
Artificial Intelligence isn’t just useful for identifying security threats – although this is a key strength of the technology. It can also help organisations increase their competitiveness and commercial success.

In the same way, Artificial Intelligence can help organisations to better understand customers and meet their needs more effectively – leading to more commercial opportunities. One feature – called People Counting – allows stores and commercial centres to map footfall at peak times, ensuring that staffing is optimised to meet demand. At the same time, stores can see which areas of the building customers visit most, and adjust their merchandising and product positioning accordingly to maximise the sales opportunities.

Hikvision: an Artificial Intelligence pioneer
Hikvision has created a family of Artificial Intelligence products to maximise the benefits for organisations, such as the DeepinView network cameras and DeepinMind NVRs. The products help to tackle security with facial recognition; monitoring and counting of people; and recognition and detection of vehicles, to name a few. These features all depend on Artificial Intelligence technology to recognise, classify and respond to security threats.

Improving traffic flow, traffic management, and vehicle and site security

The ability to identify vehicles can provide major benefits for local authorities, businesses and a range of other organisations. It becomes possible, for instance, to improve entrance management to schools, offices and factories, or to implement congestion charging strategies in city centres. Vehicle recognition technology also supports a wide range of Traffic Management solutions that keep vehicles moving in busy urban areas, improve road safety and speed up responses to road traffic incidents and offences. As of now, this technology is mainly reflected on vehicle number plate recognition and vehicle feature recognition.

Recognise vehicle number plates in real time

The Hikvision ANPR application captures a vehicle’s license plate in real time, compares or adds it to a pre-defined list. Once a number plate has been recognised and stored, an appropriate action is taken, such as opening a gate, adding a cost, or generating an alert.

Recognise vehicles

Hikvision’s vehicle recognition feature uses a Deep Learning algorithm to distinguish between small and large vehicles, with the added ability to detect the make, model and colour. The system can be programmed to search for anomalies such as cars travelling in designated bus lanes, or vehicles driving without license plates, for example.

Social distance is a hot topic in current discussions. In areas where crowds are unavoidable, such as cash registers in the supermarket and the ticket kiosk at public transportation stations, how to measure social distancing compliance is critical. Authorities in various locations have established specific guidelines and legislation in this area, balancing needs and risks for citizens.

This solution uses people counting and 3D modeling technologies to measure the distance between people accurately. The distance measurement can be adjusted, according to scenario, or changing Government regulations, for example.

The output can be connected to various kinds of alarm, such as a siren or speaker, making it possible to tailor the message to the scenario. For example, an audio message saying “Please remember to keep more than 1.5m apart” could be used. Alternatively, in more extreme circumstances a siren could sound, alerting a security guard to intervene.

Precise Social Distance Detection

Precise distance detection between people powered by 3D binocular stereo vision and deep learning algorithm.

Automatic Alarm

An audio alarm can be triggered once it is detected that the two people are too close to the minimum safety distance.
