Bosch Launches Automatic Licence Plate Recognition System
Bosch Security Systems has launched a system for enhancing CCTV surveillance with Automatic Licence Plate Recognition (ALPR). The solution enables the Bosch 700 Series Hybrid and Network Recorders to be integrated with the company’s REG-Sentry ALPR system. Licence plates can be searched automatically in the Divar 700 Series recorder, which
will bring up the corresponding video of the vehicle captured by the recorder together with associated meta-data giving the date and time the video was recorded. REG-Sentry is one of the first automated vehicle access-control systems based on Automatic Licence Plate Recognition.
Finnish Rail Initiates Pilot IP-CCTV Project
The Finnish Transport Agency for Rail, Maritime and Road Administration, has announced that the pilot project for evaluating an advanced IP-based surveillance system for 11 train stations, was awarded to IndigoVision's Authorised Finnish Partner, Taitotekniikka (Kauppahuone Taito Oy). The pilot project will cover some 12
sites, of which 11 are rail stations. The Central Station in Helsinki is already using IndigoVision’s end-to-end IP Video security solution for its station-wide surveillance. The station’s existing CCTV control room will also monitor the 12 sites of the pilot project, through more than 250 new IP cameras. In addition two new surveillance centres will be connected to the IP network, creating a distributed and redundant remote monitoring capability for the Central Station and the pilot sites. The pilot project will be rolled out during the summer of 2010. The Finnish Transport Agency intends
to build one of the world’s most advanced distributed IP-CCTV systems for rail surveillance, where the final goal is to have a nationwide system covering all stations with a network expected to monitor some 5,000 IP cameras in total. The plan is to record video 24/7 from all cameras on to distributed Network Video Recorders (NVRs), fully managed by remote surveillance centres.
Xtralis Launches New Generation of ADPRO Video Transmission, Recording and Analysis Technology
Xtralis has launched the ADPRO V3100 Hybrid – a new generation of highly reliable network video and audio transmission and recording technology with analytics for both IP and analogue CCTV remote monitoring applications. Building on the heritage of the ADPRO FastTrace, the new ADPRO 3100 Hybrid is a single- or multi-site system that monitors and transmits
high-quality images using H.264 compression so operators within a central monitoring station can quickly assess an unfolding security situation and take appropriate action.
Smiths Detection Wins $11.4 Million TSA Order
Smiths Detection has announced an $11.4 million order from the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) for its explosives trace detection technology, the IONSCAN 500DT. Intended for use at security checkpoints, the desktop detectors identify trace amounts of explosives collected on a single swab, in seconds. The IONSCAN 500DT uses ion mobility spectrometry technology in a dual tube design to provide the high sensitivity and accuracy needed to
detect trace explosives. Because of its small size and speed of detection, the system is ideal for checkpoint security screening in airports, ports and borders, air cargo screening facilities, public and private buildings, courthouses and correctional facilities.
