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.

    Researchers Yuting Yang, Camillo Taylor and Daniel Lee have developed a system to turn surveillance cameras into traffic counters. Traffic information can be collected from existing inexpensive roadside cameras but extracting it often entails manual work or costly commercial software. Against this background the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) was looking for an efficient and user-friendly solution to extract traffic information from videos captured from road intersections.

    David Crawford looks at technologies for better emergency medical service delivery. Emergency medical services (EMS) play key roles in transporting, or bringing treatment to, patients who become ill through medical emergencies or are injured in road traffic accidents (RTAs). But awareness has been rising steadily, in the US and elsewhere, of the extent to which EMS can generate their own emergencies. The most common cause is vehicles causing or becoming involved in RTAs, as a result of driving fast under pr
