Ensuring Safe and Secure Environments
Safety and security are paramount in any premise, especially commercial entities with high net worth of physical infrastructure. Conventional security systems record any occurring incident within the set time span regardless of whether or not it is a suspicious incident. Thus, security personnel have to manually monitor the security monitors at the control centre to detect these incidents. Mi-SP (Intelligent Surveillance Platform) actively acquires video feeds 24/7 for high-level video analytics to alert users of suspicious events. For organisations, this improves the security level of prized assets ensuring business continuity. It also increases situational awareness and provides insights into business surroundings.

The features of Mi-SP are:

• High accuracy of event detection and low false alarms
• Supports IP cameras and analogue cameras via encoders
• Scalable and distributed architecture to address large numbers of cameras
• Robust system that runs on Windows XP/Server 2003/Server 2008
• Web-based system that displays captured images on web browsers and/or client-based applications

Applications
The uniqueness of Mi-SP is in its video analytics via Web-based Image Acquisition and Display (WIAD) that links all components together from the camera to video processing to the final display on the web browser. Mi-SP can be applied in these areas:

• Commercial Buildings – As an example, a telco tower with expensive servers and communication hardware that once hijacked, will cause a huge disruption in a communication delivery network.
• Government Buildings – Areas of limited access containing strictly need-to-know secrets of government that are highly-sensitive. Only secured and permitted personnel are allowed to enter these areas and an intrusion would result in a national issue.
• Public Areas – In airports, train stations and commuter stations where high traffic flow warrant a sensitive and effective system to be able to catch any incident and alert the authorities to take action before mass hysteria occurs.
