Prama Hikvision combines radar and video to maximize perimeter security

Radar and video are very different technologies with different security applications. However, putting them together gives a sum that is much bigger, and more effective, than the parts. Specializing in video surveillance technology, Prama Hikvision is helping its customers to detect and verify perimeter security threats, and take fast, effective action to minimize negative impacts of a breach. 

The value of ‘multi-dimensional awareness’
By bringing video and radar together, users can achieve what we call multidimensional awareness - a kind of superpower that allows users to detect and verify perimeter security threats, and take fast, effective action to minimize negative impacts of a breach.

The first awareness ‘dimension’ comes from radar, which allows users to detect people or vehicles crossing your perimeter boundary, and to follow them around to ensure they only access authorized areas of their site. The second ‘dimension’ is smart, high-resolution video, which helps users identify potential security threats quickly, see exactly what occurs, and respond faster to security breaches to protect people and assets.

And with properly integrated video and radar solutions, users can do even more. It’s possible, for example, to train cameras on people in radar range who enter restricted areas.

While the security potential of integrated video and radar solutions is huge, the practice is a little more complicated. Users could consider integrating radar with video themselves, for example, or working with partners to do the integration work, but the time and costs involved may be prohibitive and the right skills are hard to find.

To help users overcome their challenges and maximize their perimeter protection, Hikvision has created the industry’s first all-in-one Radar PTZ solution. This combines a Hikvision radar sensor with a latest generation Hikvision PTZ camera and deep learning capabilities to help users identify security threats and respond faster to any incidents.

The 3 top benefits of Hikvision Radar PTZ
When the Hikvision radar sensor detects a moving object, an alert is sent to the integrated PTZ camera, which zooms in and focuses on it to see if it is a human or vehicle of interest. An alert is also sent to the security team automatically, helping users respond faster to protect people and assets.

The 3 top benefits of the solution are:
1.    Fast, automated threat detection
Based on AI algorithms that differentiate people and vehicles from other moving objects. The camera in the PTZ unit is triggered by potential security threats picked up by the radar sensor, allowing security teams to verify security incidents quickly and easily.
2.    Large coverage area with the ability to follow multiple people and vehicles
The Radar PTZ gives users 100 meters of radar coverage, allowing users security team to follow multiple people and vehicles of interest as they move around site and respond faster in the event of a security breach.
3.    Rapid, cost-effective deployment
The solution is very quick and easy to install, with a simple portal for configuring devices. This ensures that the entire deployment process is fast and simple.

Boosting perimeter security for businesses of all types and sizes

By offering multi-dimensional perception with integrated radar and video sensors in the same unit, the Hikvision solution is helping all kinds of organizations to enhance their perimeter security, from industrial sites and construction sites, to automotive dealerships, universities, mines, and a wide range of other sites and facilities.

Max Fang, Director of Video Security Products at Hikvision, said, “Sometimes, two technologies are better than one, and security solutions that integrate video and radar capabilities are a great example of this. By combining these two powerful technologies, you can boost your perimeter security with multi-dimensional perception – which helps you see and respond to incidents faster”.
