SECURITY ESSEN MAGAZINE CCTV: THE DIRECTOR’S CUT


It can pan a PTZ camera to the incident location, lock doors,


trigger public


address announcements, and alert security staff . Over at Red Dot award-winning


Ajax, it’s clear that AI is part of their entire ecosystem, enabling cameras to seamlessly synchronise with other security devices which means, for example, that a triggered alarm sensor or an outdoor motion detector can instruct the AI camera to immediately act in various ways, such as to start recording or switch to higher-quality modes. Another good example is Bosch’s


newly-branded IQSIGHT range which seeks to bring visual


to environments where clarity and reliability matter the most, says CEO Sabrina Stainburn. “We are applying


AI where it


delivers value by helping systems understand what is happening and surface the events and patterns that matter most so customers can detect risk earlier, make faster decisions, and operate with confi dence,” she says. With intelligence at the edge, the cameras act as sensors to secure premises, make buildings safer

triggered by animals, falling leaves, heavy rain, and other moving objects, AcuSense enables businesses and homeowners to focus security resources on real threats. Similarly, at China’s Dahua


Technology, AI CCTV systems use deep learning algorithms to provide high-accuracy human and vehicle detection, active deterrence, and rapid smart video search capabilities.

and monitor perimeters — without requiring a cloud connection. Edge- based AI also supports integration into existing systems to add visual intelligence without a rip-and-replace — such as adding cameras with visual gun detection outside entrances or supplementing systems with the ability to detect clothing colour and other tell-tale signals. Hikvision’s AcuSense technology embeds deep-learning

we talk to computers, large language models are now transforming how we use video. Cameras have evolved beyond passive recording and can now interpret visual context and follow complex instructions, unlocking new frontiers for safety and operational insight.


Security systems no longer rely


on video alone. Modern platforms combine visual feeds with audio analytics and ambient sensors. Cameras can cross-reference an unusual crowd formation with the sound of a loud verbal argument, providing higher accuracy and wider situational context.


AT MY COMPANY, WE ARE SEEING THE SECURITY INDUSTRY EXPERIENCE ITS IPHONE MOMENT, WHERE TECHNOLOGY BECOMES SO TRANSFORMATIVE THAT IT ENABLES NEW CATEGORIES OF UTILITY


JENNY NGO ABP Technology and IPTECHVIEW


Jenny Ngo, of ABP Technology


and IPTECHVIEW said: “LLMs like Google Gemini and OpenAI have spent billions in training to create new video language models for image recognition, resulting in a quantum leap beyond traditional


video


analytics.” By bringing these models to cameras, she reasoned, the sort of analytics we enjoy


today achieve


what she called “a genuine level of common-sense understanding. “At my company, we


are missing


the security industry experience its ‘iPhone moment,’ where technology becomes so transformative that it enables new categories of utility.”
