ActivEye’s Powerful Automated Threat Detection Enables Increased Security Capability at Reduced Cost of Ownership

Briar Cliff, New York. – September 2003—ActivEye®, Inc., a leading provider of automated video security solutions, announces the general and immediate availability of Active AlertTM, the company's software-based, best-in-class solution for real-time threat detection and management.  ActivEye will showcase its solutions at the 49th Annual ASIS Security Show in Booth #4545.

ActivEye, Inc., a New York-based developer of Intelligent Video Management (IVM) software, specializes in real-time event detection and offers interactive tools that enhance security operators’ ability to efficiently investigate vast amounts of recorded video.

Active AlertTM headlines a group of products that use video content analysis software to provide real-time alarms and forensic tools for manned and unmanned video surveillance systems.  This unique, patented software automatically:

·        Reports more than 35 separate suspicious events;

·        Distinguishes between human, automobile and environmental backgrounds;

·        Enables instantaneous video retrieval for review by security professionals; and

·        Offers data mining capabilities, to enable end users to spot trends and modify operations to maximize security and operational efficiency

“In highly visible, easily accessible public spaces and transportation centers, it is the ability to obtain reliable, real-time information about emerging threats that matters most,” noted Carolyn Ramsey, President of ActivEye.   “Not only is it critical to catch events while in progress, it is also essential that the video data be both immediately available and easily accessible for later review.”

Unmatched Depth and Breadth

Active AlertTM elevates video surveillance from being a deterrence-oriented system to a complete video security solution, which prevents and stops crimes in progress through advanced, patent-driven ‘smart’ software.  With its ability to analyze activity in moderately trafficked locations, (both indoors and outdoors) in daylight and night-lighted environments, Active AlertTM is ideally suited to the needs of corporate and homeland security.

 Real-Time Event Detection & Verification

Active AlertTM automatically catches more than 35 suspicious events and provides immediate alerts to both onsite and remote security personnel.  This rapid response mitigates the negative impact of security breaches.  Also, Active AlertTM filters out irrelevant content and significantly reduces costly false alarms prevalent in today’s industry.

 Improved Productivity

By offloading the burden of continuous surveillance from the operator to the system, Active AlertTM enables a single operator to effectively monitor a much larger area.   The end-to-end alarm notification and video verification system dramatically reduces the operator’s response time to suspected breaches. 

Fast Data Retrieval: Automatic video annotation enables fast and friendly access to stored data for further analysis.   With today’s methods, review and analysis of the stored video is prohibitively time consuming.  Active AlertTM solves this problem by combining smart indexing with interactive retrieval tools to decrease the time required to find relevant data in video archives by more than ten times today’s industry standard.

Reduced Cost of Ownership

The Active AlertTM system requires minimal installer setup and functions with both pre-existing and new CCTV installations.  Easy installation, flexible software and customizable parameters allow for significantly increased security options at a reduced Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) along with a  high Return on Investment (ROI) to customers.
