PureTech Systems has announced an expanded integration with Axis Communications products to improve perimeter security and greatly reduce nuisance alarms.

According to the PureTech, the most recent integration combines its PureActiv geospatial AI-boosted video analytics with the detection capabilities of the Axis Communications D2110-VE security radar.

Eliminating nuisance alarms

PureTech says that this can virtually eliminate nuisance alarms generated by motion video analytics, radars, fence sensor systems and other detection technologies.

The Axis Communications security radar family provides advanced detection and tracking of potential threats, with the D2110-VE providing 180-degree detection out to 60 meters for people and 85 meters for vehicles.

The integration provides for elimination of nuisance alarms by utilizing PureTech’s advanced geospatial AI-boosted video analytics to classify the objects detected by the radars as human, animal or vehicle and alert the operator only on an auto-verified object of interest.

PureTech’s PureActiv software automatically steers one or more PTZ cameras to radar tracks and executes its AI-boosted video analytics against the PTZ video feed to perform auto-verification.

Once auto-verified, PureActiv instructs the PTZ camera to stay locked on the intruder; following them no matter where they go so long as they stay in view of a PTZ camera.

The company says that this combination of technologies provides for reduced operator fatigue, increased situational awareness, as well as facilitating the automation of response actions while providing more accurate detection and virtually zero nuisance alarms.

Security in real-time

“The ability for PureActiv to georeference video from security cameras in real time, means the solution speaks the same language as radars,” explained Chris Sincock, Vice President of Channel Development at PureTech Systems.

“This allows us to easily integrate with other geospatially aware sensors, such as the Axis Communications’ radars.

“The result is a more robust, accurate and automated surveillance solution that eliminates the time wasted by operators following up and clearing nuisance alarms.”

“At Axis Communications, we are committed to providing innovative products and solutions that improve security and enhance business performance,” said Robert Muehlbauer, Senior Manager, Business Development Partner Ecosystems, Axis Communications.

“With our open platform architecture, broad portfolio and world-class technology partners, we’re driven to introduce new, inventive solutions to the market.

“By combining our advanced detection capabilities with PureTech‘s sophisticated AI video analytics, together we are able to deliver a powerful and reliable perimeter intrusion detection capability that significantly reduces nuisance alarms and improves overall situational awareness for our customers.”
