Dwell Time Analysis

Dwell time analysis is an AI video analytics capability that measures how long individuals remain in a defined zone — a store aisle, a service desk, a platform, an intersection — and aggregates that data into actionable insights about attention, engagement, or congestion.

Cloud Video Analytics

Cloud video analytics is the deployment model where AI analytics run on centralized cloud servers — rather than on the camera (edge) or an on-premise server — with camera streams ingested over the internet and results delivered back to operators via web or mobile clients.

Camera Frame Rate

Camera frame rate — measured in frames per second (FPS) — is the number of images a camera captures and transmits each second. It is one of the most important trade-offs in any surveillance deployment, balancing smoothness, bandwidth, storage, and analytics accuracy.

Video Intrusion Detection

Video intrusion detection is an AI video analytics capability that identifies unauthorized people or vehicles entering protected zones and triggers alerts in real time. Unlike traditional motion sensors that fire on any pixel change, video intrusion detection classifies what's moving and enforces zone-based rules.

Traffic Analytics

Traffic analytics is the use of AI video analytics to extract structured data from roadway cameras — vehicle counts, classification (car, truck, bus, motorcycle), speed, direction, and incident detection. It turns existing traffic cameras into live sensors for city planning, signal timing, and safety.

Smart Parking System

A smart parking system is a technology platform that uses cameras, AI video analytics, and in some cases ground sensors to monitor parking space occupancy in real time, guide drivers to available spaces, and automate entry, exit, and billing. It replaces traditional per-spot sensor arrays with a vision-first approach at a fraction of the cost.

Real-Time Video Alerts

Real-time video alerts are notifications triggered automatically the moment an AI analytics system detects a defined event — a recognized face, a detected weapon, a fallen person, an unauthorized vehicle — delivered to security operators or responders in seconds. They are the core output of modern smart surveillance.

PTZ Camera

A PTZ camera — pan, tilt, zoom — is a video surveillance camera with motorized movement and optical zoom that can be controlled remotely by operators or automatically by software. One PTZ can cover the area of several fixed cameras, making it a workhorse for large outdoor spaces.

Perimeter Security

Perimeter security is the practice of protecting the outer boundary of a facility — the fence line, property edge, or controlled area — from unauthorized intrusion. Modern perimeter security layers physical barriers (fences, gates), detection sensors (cameras, radar, fiber-optic), and AI video analytics to detect intrusions early with minimal false alarms.
