Local authorities often face challenges when working to reduce crime rates and build safer cities, which may be due to budgetary constraints or limitations of an older video security system. To address these concerns, Convergint, partnered with Avigilon, provides smart solutions such as AI-powered video analytics, intelligent bandwidth management technology, and critical communications integrations to enable cities to take a proactive approach to security, while staying conscious of public budgets.
Smart, Intuitive, and Easy to Use
Avigilon Control Center (ACC)™ video management software leverages advanced video analytics, including Avigilon Appearance Search™ and Unusual Motion Detection (UMD) technologies, to help quickly detect, verify, and act on potentially critical events. Avigilon Appearance Search technology allows users to sort through hours of video with ease to quickly locate a specific person or vehicle of interest across all cameras and sites that are connected to the ACC software, while UMD technology continuously learns what typical activity in a scene looks like and then detects and flags unusual motion, revealing events that may have otherwise been missed.
Crisp, Clear Video
High-definition video security solutions allow users to cover more area using fewer cameras. There is no longer a need to choose between exceptional image quality and efficent bandwith usage, the High Definition Stream Management (HDSM)™ technology helps maintain crisp, clear image quality while reducing bandwidth and storage needs. When necessary to take a closer look at a video stream, HDSM technology sends only the portion of the image needed, providing high resolution using only a fraction of bandwidth and storage. Because HDSM technology manages the storage of data so intelligently, users can search through vast amounts of video in just seconds, saving cost and time.
“With Avigilon’s self-learning video analytics and clear video, we are able to quickly and effectively find the critical evidence we need to assist police in investigations, helping make our neighborhood a safer place.”
– Mike Cruz, Executive Director for Long Beach Housing Authority.
Staying Connected
With the integration of ACC and Motorola Solutions’ CommandCentral Aware software, an unparalleled solution for public safety now exists. CommandCentral Aware is part of Motorola Solutions’ end-to-end suite of command center software, and through integration with ACC, dispatchers and intelligence analysts will have one source for real-time intelligence that includes video feeds, incident details, alerts, data mapping, and responder location. Partnered with Motorola Solutions, Convergint and Avigilon can provide an integrated source for actionable information from the time an emergency call is placed until after an incident is resolved, helping to simplify and support proactive event response for a safer city.
Secure communities are built on a strong foundation; they’re where people want to live and businesses want to thrive. By deploying integrated video security and critical communications systems that leverage AI-powered analytics and efficient bandwidth management technology, cities are more empowered to deter crime and vandalism, while proactively responding to events to keep residents safe and thriving.
