3558 Digital Barriers’ SafeZone-edge intrusion detection solution has received the Intruder Alarm or Exterior Deterrent Product of the Year at IFSEC’s Security and Fire Excellence Awards 2014.

The judging panel cited the "superior performance", "ease of use" and "market moving pricing" as key factors in the award.

Launched in April 2014, SafeZone-edge was designed to address the limitations that are typically associated with video-based intrusion detection solutions. By combining outstanding performance with exceptional usability, the app (for 2215 Axis devices), provides an automated security option.

SafeZone-edge features unique auto-calibration of multiple cameras, together with automatic mitigation of environmental effects, including adverse weather, variable illumination and wildlife.

SafeZone-edge is simpler than conventional server-based IVA and more reliable than edge-based VMD. It has been optimised for edge operation on a wide range of Axis cameras, removing the need for costly and complex centralised server infrastructure.

    Radar reinforces detection efficiency
    Radar can have distinct advantages in some transport-related situations as Colin Sowman found out during a visit to Navtech Radar. Despite tremendous advances in machine vision techniques, the accuracy and reliability of camera-based detection systems suffer during periods of poor visibility where other technologies may offer an alternative. Radar is one such technology. It too has seen significant development in recent years and according to Navtech Radar, the technology can often fulfil detection and moni

    Network video alternative to machine vision in urban applications
    It would be easy to fall into the trap of seeing machine vision as the vision-based solution for ITS and traffic, however Patrik Anderson, Director Business Development Transportation of Axis Communications, notes that many of the applications which are coming to be associated with machine vision – and, indeed, many of the characteristics, such as at-the-edge analytics and image processing – are also possible with open-standard networked video. Networked video brings a whole host of advantages, such as the

    Camera technology a flexible and cost-effective option
    Perceptions of machine vision being an expensive solution are being challenged by developments in both core technologies and ancillaries. Here, Jason Barnes and David Crawford look at the latest developments in the sector. A notable aspect of machine vision is the flexibility it offers in terms of how and how much data is passed around a network. With smart cameras, processing capabilities at the front end mean that only that which is valid need be communicated back to a central processor of any descripti
