Today’s Reality: Is the Cure more expensive than the Disease?

Many products are available today that can provide Intrusion Detection and Notification. These include cameras with analytics or motion detection software, and beam-based (e.g., PIRs or microwave) or vibration systems that can be combined with PTZ cameras.

Unfortunately both the capital (equipment, construction, configuration) and operating (human cost of monitoring false alerts; continuous tuning; project cost associated with any system change) costs associated with these systems over their lifetime often far exceed the costs associated with actual theft. This high Total Cost of Ownership results in security planners dropping small/medium or remote sites from their security rollout plans. This of course only serves to continue the cycle of theft as many sites remain under-protected—or even unprotected.

Emza’s response: The WiseEye Visual Sensor addresses the financial and operational challenges of outdoor intruder detection and notification—for the first time.

Simply, the outdoor asset or perimeter protection application requires:

Low-cost, simple deployment by non-experts (e.g., electricians or techs) >>

Superb Detection in all conditions (must catch real events in real-time) >>

Strong False Positive Suppression (enables Monitoring
business models) >>
