How the Viseum IMC Works

Demonstrations

Fully Automated Security and Surveillance

Solving the surveillance industry’s problem of low quality and missing video evidence

Following one person through standard and Viseum IMC cameras

A Viseum IMC camera picks one person out of a crowd and follows them from camera to camera, beside a fixed standard camera that cannot.

Global F3 Find, Fix and Follow

One suspect, from a plate read in a city to detention at a border. Each step is found, fixed and followed, and a person confirms before anyone acts.

This is how the Viseum IMC (Intelligent Moving Camera) works. The only camera that detects several incidents at once, from short range to long range, in all directions. One Viseum camera does the work of 6 constantly manned cameras, a Metropolitan Police surveillance officer reported. See the Long Range AI Camera. It operates completely automatically, controlling a moving camera to follow the required action and confirm incidents. With high-quality close-up video evidence even before the alarm is raised, it automatically reports incidents for rapid response and investigations.

Automatic Threat Detection and Crime Confirmation

Viseum’s wide contextual view cameras are the ‘all-seeing eyes’ of Viseum surveillance camera technology. Also, these surveillance cameras automatically monitor individuals, groups, and crowds of people and vehicles or traffic flow. Activity in a chosen area then drives the Intelligent PTZ Camera. It zooms in and follows the activity. It is easy to instruct the Viseum surveillance camera on which areas to watch for security threats, and which areas to ignore or de-prioritise.

Extended Dual Evidence – Recreate the Incident

The Viseum 360 Degree Security Camera gives two views of every incident. You see the crime, the lead up to it, and what followed. This provides the customer with valuable information about the incident: who else witnessed it, where the suspects came from and went, and how to reduce further incidents.

Intelligent Camera System:

Intelligent 360° Surveillance: Panoramic Security Camera. Up to six high resolution cameras in one unit. You get a wide view and a close-up of each incident:

iVOS Camera Controller

  • 1 to 6 high-resolution wide contextual view surveillance cameras for 60° to 360° event detection and complete wide-area coverage.
  • 1 x Pan, Tilt and Zoom (PTZ) camera: Automatic close-up evidence, Viseum AiPTZ or other major brands.

iVOS Camera Controller: The controller usually sits next to the camera when Viseum sensor modules are used. On a large, fully digital system it sits in the command control equipment room:

  • High-performance computer (various models to suit requirements).
  • Intelligent Virtual Operator Software (Viseum iVOS) monitoring Video Content Analysis software or Video Analytics Software. This gives automated target detection and PTZ camera control.
  • Optional Integrated NVR software usually with 30 days local storage (for primary use or backup storage).
  • Alternatively, all cameras, or usually just the Intelligent PTZ Camera, can be connected to any other storage solution.

LEVEL 1TECHNOLOGY INTRODUCTION PROGRAMME

The Viseum Panoramic Security Camera visibly scans all its surroundings. To an offender the whole site looks watched by a team of experts. That creates a long-term deterrent.

4 Main Deployment Options:

Fixed Permanent Installations

Here the PTZ Camera System is fixed to a pole, wall or other street furniture. The iVOS Camera Controller sits in the pole cabinet or in a host building.

Redeployable or Temporary 360° Security Camera Installations

Here the PTZ Camera System, NVR and iVOS Camera Controller are installed together as one unit. It mounts on a lighting column or other street furniture for temporary use. Viseum redeployable cameras reduce or eliminate missed opportunities due to operator fatigue. They save significant man-hours in redeploying and re-adjusting security camera positions.

Rapid Camera Deployments

Here the PTZ Camera System, NVR and iVOS Camera Controller form one wireless unit on a towed trailer. It uses the best-in-class Viseum-driven ruggedised panoramic security camera. This mobile camera clears up crime faster than any other crime reduction initiative, short of having resident security teams permanently on alert. The Viseum Mobile camera trailer moves easily and carries its own power. That makes it a strong deterrent and evidence tool. An optional battery lasts up to 3 days, and solar panels are available for extended periods. This encourages its regular use to follow, solve and deter crime and disorder, whenever and wherever it occurs.

Here the PTZ Camera System, NVR and iVOS Camera Controller form one wireless unit on a vehicle.

2 Main Modes of Operation:

Surveillance Control Room Integrated

Providing the best of both worlds, where Viseum’s machine-to-machine intelligent automation interplays with human vigilance. Viseum outdoor surveillance cameras zoom into and follow the activity. Operators see the video wall come to life for the first time. The camera operator can always smoothly override Viseum’s automation. But when they are too busy or simply unavailable, and crimes happen, high-quality close-up video is still captured, and the long-term deterrent is always sustained.

Some sites need the best wide-area long-range 360° security coverage. This covers critical infrastructure, business parks and residential communities. Viseum outdoor surveillance cameras suit standalone wide-area security.
