Axis introduces video analytics with reliable, easy to install AXIS Guard Suite for enhanced video surveillance efficiency
28 Sep 2015
Axis
announces AXIS Guard Suite, a series of robust video analytics applications
that quickly turn Axis network cameras into smart security systems, allowing a
more pro-active approach to video surveillance.
The offering targets small and
medium-sized installations with an easy to install and affordable solution for
efficient surveillance that is well suited for commercial, industrial and
public grounds, buildings, and indoor areas.
Axis
Communications, the market leader in network video, introduces AXIS Guard Suite
of video analytics applications, expanding its portfolio for video surveillance
solutions with an easy to install and affordably priced video analytics
offering. The applications, available for various monitoring needs, complement
Axis’ range of network camera solutions and are easily integrated with AXIS Camera Station
- a proven video management
system (VMS) optimised for Axis’ network video products.
“With
AXIS Guard Suite you can enhance the video surveillance capabilities of network
cameras and turn them into even more powerful devices. Now also small and
medium-sized businesses can benefit from efficient detection capabilities,
resulting in fewer false alarms and missed incidents along with more effective
investigative features. AXIS Guard Suite is an ideal cost-efficient and
reliable add-on that will enable our customers to ensure safer and better protected
premises and assets,” said Peter Friberg, Director Solution Management, Axis
Communications.
AXIS
Guard Suite now offers a reliable solution for use in low-traffic areas such as
after-hour monitoring of retail shops and offices, parking lots and other
unattended areas where reliable motion detection is needed. In addition, other
video motion detection features are available through Axis’
application development partners that
provide a broad range of video analytics that work with Axis network video
products.
AXIS
Guard Suite provides robust detection as video analysis is performed directly
on the camera’s uncompressed video stream, and supported by AXIS False Alarm
Filtering technology for high reliability.
The
AXIS Guard Suite offers three applications:
·
AXIS
Motion Guard: For
general motion detection, typically on premises that are supposed to be empty
after hours, e.g. parking lots, construction sites, etc.
·
AXIS
Fence Guard: For
protection of a fenced-off area by detecting attempts to climb or sabotage the
fence
·
AXIS
Loitering Guard:
For detecting suspicious behaviour in semi-public areas where loitering may
pose a security issue
AXIS
Guard Suite is designed to be installer-friendly. The applications are
downloadable from the AXIS
Camera Application Platform (ACAP) gallery and easy to install and
configure, with an intuitive user interface, contextual help and smart
configuration options. A quick five-step setup wizard guides the installer
through calibration, area, filters and custom profile settings (e.g. for night
time, windy days, etc.)
AXIS Guard Suite is planned to be available in Q4 2015
at a suggested retail price of USD 149 per application and camera through Axis
distribution channels.
