VMS Integration with security sensors

Integrating OPTEX sensors with Video Management Software (VMS) system complements each other’s capabilities and weaknesses.
It can provide solutions to common problems of video surveillance system and increase the efficiency, effectiveness and value of IP video surveillance.

For a security system at a lot of commercial and industrial sites, they monitor multiple CCTVs from remote or local monitoring centers. Especially in applications with large areas such as airports, power plants etc., quite a number of CCTVs are installed. In applications such as data centers, which are divided into multiple layers of security zones, CCTV is generally installed for each zone or security point. Of course, not only installation of the system but also human resources such as security guards and operators who monitor videos of surveillance cameras are required. It can be difficult for operators to monitor footage from a large number of cameras without overlooking them and always respond immediately to emergencies, and they may miss important scenes. Therefore, it is necessary to build a system to detect intrusions and suspicious persons efficiently and reliably, and to always respond promptly.

OPTEX’s intrusion detection sensors and system can provide a highly accurate warning system which enables you to immediately confirm alarm scenes locally or remotely by linking with surveillance cameras. When a sensor detects an intrusion, a linked camera will be triggered for actions such as Live pop-up or PTZ camera control on the screen of monitoring room, and security guards can take a prompt and on-point action to dispatch for on-site check, call police/ owner or makes a voice warning remotely.
It realizes the efficiency of the operation for reliable response in the event of an emergency.

In the outdoor environment, there are various factors which can be a case of false alarm for the video sensing technology in the video system,

such as

• glare of the sun
• shadows
• waving of the vegetation
• insects passing on the camera lens
• environmental factors (rain,snow,fog)
• car headlights, etc..

OPTEX’s high-quality outdoor sensors are developed based on its know-how that has a thorough knowledge of the field and all of them have passed various product evaluation tests which ensures that only the highest quality products carry the OPTEX name.  Using OPTEX technology and algorithms to reduce the impact of these factors, it can dramatically reduce false alarms.
By integrating surveillance cameras with video sensing and OPTEX sensors, it is possible to complement each other’s weaknesses and provide high detection performance with minimized false alarms.
