Overview
Bosch Gun Detection + AI Alarm Verification - Use Bosch cameras that are designed to detect guns-in-hand and combine with AI alarm verification.
Bosch cameras are designed to detect brandished firearms, and visualize those detections in XProtect®. No additional server equipment or camera calibration is needed. All you need (apart from XProtect®) is a compatible Bosch camera equipped with Bosch IVA Pro Visual Gun Detection (order: MVC-IVA-VGD).For even higher accuracy, Bosch offers additional AI Alarm Verification through XProtect® and a Bosch-managed cloud-instance. This cloud deploys specialized AI models to further verify camera-triggered alarms within seconds. This will result in even higher detection accuracy and very little unwanted alarms. All verifications are being logged in XProtect®, while the system operator gets way less unwanted alarms. For this solution, you need an additional annual Bosch cloud license (order: CBS-AAV-VGD) per camera, and the Bosch plug-in offered on this page.
Bosch IVA Pro Visual Gun Detection and Bosch AI Alarm Verification for Visual Gun Detection might not be available in all countries.
Key features
- Designed to detect brandished firearms by using Bosch camera analytics, Milestone XProtect and (optionally) Bosch AI Alarm Verification in the cloud.
- XProtect® configuration allows to visualize the (verified) gun alarms by placing a bounding box around the occurrence.
- No additional server equipment needed. Processing happens exclusively on the camera and -optionally- in the cloud (when using AI Alarm Verification).
- Use Milestone's "Emergency Alert" feature in the Mobile Client for emergency decision-making while on-the-go. Ideal for key staff in a building.
- When using IVA Pro Visual Gun Detection standalone, all computations are carried out on-edge, with no video data being required to leave the camera.
