SVT – Smart Video Technology
Intelligent Video ‘Improving on the human factor’
The majority of CCTV cameras today (estimated at 80-90 percent) installed throughout the field are used in a reactive manner to investigate and verify an activity after it has already happened. Previously this has been an acceptable way to use CCTV. In today’s environment of suicide bombers and terrorist threats, active monitoring and wherever possible proactive deployment is imperative.
Unfortunately the manpower required for active, live monitoring and the subsequent cost presents difficulty for many companies and agencies. To change from reactive to active CCTV monitoring additional manpower is required to be on the job 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Additionally a person only has the ability to properly view a limited number of cameras and ultimately has a fatigue factor that can result in much poorer performance at the latter stages of a shift. Even at the high point of efficiency, the ability to keep track of a large number of people in a crowed screen is nearly impossible.
Very Smart, Yet Easy to Use and Never Tires.
With "SVT" Smart Video Technology featuring "genius level artificial intelligence" the Human Factor is improved by making the cameras do the observing, thinking and decision making. SVT never tires, always shows up for work on time and can keep track of an unlimited number of people and cameras. Basically SVT can be programmed to do
whatever monitoring tasks are required such as:
- Determining if a suspicious item was left behind
- Determining if a person is loitering in and area where people normally are
passing through. This is the normal behaviour of a terrorist - Determining if a vehicle has stopped in front of a building where vehicles
normally do not stop - Determining if more people have entered through access controlled areas
than authorized (anti-tailgating) - Determining if a person is going the right direction
- Determining if a person has crossed a boundary where they should not be
- Determining the number of persons in an area for crowd control
Receive Alarms in Multiple Ways and Locations.

There are many other uses for Smart Video Technology. The most significant feature of SVT is the alarming and Client software. Accurate alarms are activated upon violations of "rules of engagement" set by the SVT software. Upon activation alarms will notify the proper authorities including multiple destinations both on and off site. The SVT Client software is the most comprehensive and robust in the industry.
