  • Gain unprecedented scene and incident understanding 

Pinpoint objects and events of interest  

Advance post-event investigations and accelerate time-to-target for law enforcement agencies and security personnel.  

  • Process and search VMS and third-party video to support investigations 
  • Organize investigation specific video assets into a single case. Dynamically collaborate on cases and easily export summarized findings  
  • Rapidly pinpoint people and vehicles, across multiple cameras, by their attributes such as gender, type, size, color, direct and speed   

Ever-expanding analytics features 

Experience a robust portfolio of video analytics capabilities integrated across the platform for video metadata search, alerting, and visualization.  

  • Search and filter video across cameras based on object classes and attributes 
  • Identify people and vehicles with speed and accuracy using recognition filters 
  • Present users with easy-to-read heatmaps for increased scene understanding using visual layers  
      Increase situational awareness

      Trigger real-time, rule-based alerts for face recognition, line crossing, vehicles, people of interest, and object counting.

      • Recognize and set alerts for missing or suspicious persons from a watchlist when detected in a scene 
      • Identify unauthorized access by creating pre-defined areas or lines that trigger alerts when entered or crossed 
      • Customize rule duration, whether continuously, on specific days or times, or as a one-time event   

      Send notifications right to VMS alarm areas for a centralized view of your triggered alerts.

      • Embed directly into Milestone Smart Client to empower XProtect users to visualize alerts as they’re generated 
      • Centralize alerts from BriefCam alongside alerts triggered by other technologies, like access control integrations  

      Watchlists & rule configuration

      Create scalable watchlists to notify when individuals or vehicles of interest are detected.  

      • Create face recognition watchlists that can be used in constrained scenarios like access control to allow a list of people entry to a building or secure location 
      • Conduct “in the wild” face matching for persons included or excluded on watchlists 
      • Leverage license plate recognition watchlists for constrained applications such as access control or “in the wild” for alerts about vehicles of interest 
      Business intelligence dashboards

      Visually represent object movement, demographic segmentations, behavior trending, hotspots, and object interactions with an extensible library of vertical-specific dashboards. 

      • Track visitor volume, navigation trends, dwell patterns, and average duration in the Retail Trends dashboard
      • Understand building occupancy and increase compliance to occupancy thresholds in the Building Occupancy dashboard 
      • Differentiate pedestrian and vehicle traffic over time and across city locations in the Smart City dashboards

      Customizable dashboards

      You can customize dashboards or build them from scratch to visualize the specific video data you’re interested in.  

      • Filter dashboards based on our wide variety of features like gender demographics, time of day, vehicle make and model, color, and more 
      • Generate aggregated dashboards for overarching trend analysis over time or develop detailed dashboards that integrate a wealth of video data for comprehensive reporting 
      • Build your own dashboard to analyze site specific metrics, allowing you to tailor the visualization of data points and key performance indicators  

      Third-party data sources  

      Seamlessly correlate video analytics with third party data sources for a unique, informative view of your environment.  

      • Compare Access Control data with people counting metrics to understand entry and exits from a building or specific area 
      • Combine Point of Sale data with foot traffic metrics to help businesses understand their transaction per traffic metrics 
      • Export data to external business intelligence databases for further analysis and correlation 
        “Video from inside the vehicle, along with a series of public and private cameras on the North side of the city, allowed investigators to track the subject’s movement backwards to where they came from prior to the attack, which ultimately led to their identification.”
