The threat of perimeter security breaches is increasing around the globe. As a part of a comprehensive perimeter security system, thermal imagery and video analytics can help keep an eye on potential intruders.
In challenging environments, a thermal solution, coupled with video analytics, can overcome many of the limitations of visible light cameras while providing proactive security benefits. Combined with each other, they create a powerful virtual fence-line for premises that have remote or far-flung perimeters, or areas that need to be secured, such as residential, housing estates, farms, community, commercial parks, and airports.
Video analytics or video automatic incident detection is the technique of using a computer algorithm to monitor video (normally CCTV surveillance) cameras automatically in real time to provide management information and alarms.
Low Light Scenerios
When cameras are monitoring the perimeter of a building, they often must deal with low light scenarios (for example during nighttime hours). This is an area in which thermal imaging cameras can truly shine.
Immune to Visual Limitations
Visible cameras, much like our eyes, often have trouble seeing through natural occurring visual obscurants that block reflected light. However, because thermal radiation passes through theses visual barriers, thermal cameras can see whats going on where visible cameras cannot.
Camouflage Foliage
Regular cameras that capture only visible light can be fooled, in some cases, by visual camouflage, or in situations where similar colours or patterns blend together. This can make objects or people that need to be detected unobservable
Fewer False Alarms
Thermal imaging reduces the number of false alarms, this accomplished using advanced analytics software that can perform at its highest calibre with the high contrast images and video that thermal imaging provides
Proactive security, for locations that require real-time detection of threats as opposed to video evidence, thermal cameras with analytics are the perfect solution. Real-time analytics enable officials to investigate events as they happen through alerts. As an example, an airport using thermal cameras to secure its perimeter will need to know if people are breaching it at night. As soon as the virtual fence-line is crossed, officials are notified via the analytic management system
Less susceptibility, when lit with external lighting, visible light cameras can become very vulnerable to theft and vandalism in certain areas. Criminals can even shoot out the light in a camera so as not to be detected, leaving the video in the dark. For such high-crime areas, thermal cameras are an excellent option since they don’t need to be illuminated. Additionally, officials can reduce false alarms caused by moving tree branches, car headlights, and animals by using video analytics.
