Today’s Advanced Video Surveillance

LPR, like facial recognition, may seem like an advanced feature that only government facilities and other highly secure buildings require in their surveillance system. However, the advancements in today’s technology, such as high-resolution images, have not only made this feature highly reliable but also affordable.

Avigilon’s LPR analytics automatically reads license plates and links them to recorded and live video. It can also create license plate watchlists. This allows its video management Control Center software to send security alerts when the system spots banned personnel or someone wanted in conjunction with a crime or misdemeanor.

Avigilon’s Appearance Search technology enables security and other users to analyze video data quickly and effortlessly. Using deep learning artificial intelligence search engines, it can sort through hours of footage, quickly locating a vehicle of interest and tracking it through the facility. This ability dramatically improves emergency response times, limiting potential problems before they occur.

The latest privacy laws are also considered, with the system setting automatic deletion rules and restricted access.

Businesses and Managers Taking Advantage of LPR

These security cameras can capture license plate numbers at vehicle speeds up to 50 mph, and infrared illumination allows them to see in the dark. While this technology can be used in many places, some of its primary uses include access points such as gates or parking lots. When someone arrives, it scans their license plate and, once matched, allows entry. This system also maintains records, logging in arrivals and departures.

Homeowners’ Associations and property managers also use these systems to protect residents and property. Installed at the front gate and other easily accessed areas, they take video and snapshots of each license plate entering or leaving the premises. Then, should someone try to enter that's been denied access, the system immediately sends a notification to security and managers.

Avigilon’s cutting-edge technology also includes self-learning video analytics and unusual motion detection. This advanced technology helps streamline your security and surveillance, analyzing, searching, detecting, and reporting possible critical events before they occur.

The cloud-connected platform also lets operators view, manage, and monitor systems from anywhere in the world, taking swift action should an unauthorized or dangerous event occur. When combined with ASAP Security Services’ high level of technical knowledge, you experience an integrated security system that utilizes the latest technology to keep your staff, assets, and clients safe.
