Year IV • Issue 4 • September-October 2016(72 pages including 4 for cover)

Dear Readers,

Greetings from MalaysiaSAFE!

This month, Kuala Lumpur will play host to two prestigious events in the security industry calendar for 2016. The fourth edition of IFSEC Southeast Asia will take place from 7 to 9 September, whilst happening concurrently for the first time in the ASEAN region, the International Association for Counter terrorism and Se-curity Professionals (IACSP) will hold a Security Symposium and Awards Gala Dinner. So Kuala Lumpur will witness the gathering of security professionals from around the world to discuss current issues like homeland security, counter-terrorism and cyber-crime. In addition, world renowned security products manu-facturers and vendors will be in town to showcase their latest technologies avail-able for combating these threats.

The digital age acts as a double edged sword. Whilst it revolutionizes our society and develops our industries, it has also become the medium of choice for crimi-nals. The recent bomb in Bangkok was detonated using a mobile phone. Terrorist groups are reaching out with radical ideology to recruit new members through social media. In view of these cases, the government has put more emphasis now on cyber-related incidents. The setting up of a Regional Digital Counter-Messag-ing Communications Centre will hopefully help to stem the growing recruitment efforts of IS and other militants in the region. Plus, the government is also giving more focus towards Cybersecurity awareness and best practices.

In this issue we are carrying the interviews of Tn. Hj. Mohd Razali Abd Aziz, Head of Security Upstream, Sime Darby Plantations Sdn Bhd and Philippe Saint-Pere, Managing Director, Stratel (M) Sdn Bhd in addition to a special roundup on participants of IFSEC SEA 2016.

By the time you read this, we would have already celebrated our 59th year of Independence. The government has decided to retain last year’s theme “Sehati Sejiwa” which refers to “One heart, One Soul” because it enhances the people’s spirit of patriotism and love for the country.

We look forward to welcoming you to our booth (MP 12) at IFSEC SEA (7-9 Sep-tember) at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC) and till our next issue, stay safe and happy reading!

regional roundup

Bosch video surveillance solutions

are now installed across all Yves

Rocher outlets in Thailand. Yves Roch-

er, a leading global cosmetic and beauty

brand that is rapidly expanding in Thai-

land has entrusted Bosch to keep their

outlets across the country safe and se-

cure with video surveillance solutions.

Working with Bosch partner, CCTV

Thailand, a video surveillance system

was installed to allow central monitor-

ing of all Yves Rocher outlets.

Each outlet is approximately 24

square meters and is installed with 4

indoor dome cameras. The Bosch VDC-

260 cameras are used in each outlet to

monitor the cashier, entrance and dis-

play shelves. The cameras are connected

to a Bosch DVR-480 recording unit that

enables real-time digital recording.

Footage from the DVR is centrally

monitored with the Bosch Video Client

(BVC). The BVC is simple to install,

configure and intuitive to use and is ideal

for applications such as retail stores like

Yves Rocher. This software allows Yves

Rocher’s security team to view images

from multiple cameras on a single PC

monitor and easily archive video clips.

BVC displays live video from up to 20

standard and high definition cameras si-

multaneously.

With the Bosch Video Surveillance

system keeping their existing 50 outlets

secure and well monitored, Yves Rocher

plans to equip their future outlets with

the same solution which is easy to main-

tain and monitor centrally. In addition,

the 3-year warranty and efficient after

sales follow up gives them peace of

mind to focus on their core business

without worrying about store security.

Providing a one-stop solution for security – Yves rocher, thailand

canon’s First ultra-high-sensitivity Multi-Purpose camera with high image Quality and high sensitivityCanon, a global leader in photo-

graphic and digital imaging so-

lutions, has announced the release of

two new multi-purpose cameras, the

ME20F-SH and ME200S-SH, capable

of both high image quality and high

sensitivity. As the cameras are small in

size and lightweight, they can be used

in combination with drones and gimbal

systems, and also as a sub camera for

video production in shooting locations

where portability is required.

Ultra-high sensitivity CMOS sensor

Equipped with Canon's Super 35mm

CMOS image sensor (effective

pixels of approx 8.29 megapixels) and

DIGIC DV4 for enhanced arithmetic pro-

cessing capacity it is possible to achieve

high quality video with less occurrences

of color artefacts, moiré, and jaggies. In

addition, capturing video in low-light

conditions often requires the use of infra-

red illumination. With the minimum sub-

ject illumination of 0.015 Lux (at maxi-

mum 56dB gain setting equivalent to an

ISO sensitivity of 200,000) for ME200S-

SH and 0.0005 Lux (at maximum 75dB

gain setting equivalent to an ISO sensi-

tivity of over 4 million) for ME20F-SH,

both achieve impressive high-sensitiv-

ity performance enabling the capture of

color Full HD video with reduced noise

even in low-light conditions without the

need for infrared illumination.

These multi-purpose cameras al-

low users to discern subjects under even

some of the dimmest lighting conditions,

such as environments lit by artificial illu-

mination or under a moonless night sky.

Night time natural disaster surveillance

and the shooting of video on the behav-

ior of wild animals are just some of the

many possible usage applications, which

range from surveillance and security

to cinematic production. By enabling

video capture even in low-light condi-

tions under which subjects are difficult

to discern with the naked eye, both make

image capture possible in environments

where it previously would not have been

possible. Furthermore, similar to Can-

on’s Cinema EOS System professional

digital cinematography cameras, both

cameras include Canon Log and a wide

dynamic range, which delivers high im-

age quality video results across a range

of illumination environments, from low

to brightly-lit conditions.

Canon’s diverse inter-changeable EF lens line-up enables wide range of imaging pos-sibilities

The new cameras employ the same

EF mount (Cinema Lock type)

as Canon’s SLR cameras and Cinema

EOS System-series professional digital

cinematography cameras, allowing us-

ers to make use of the Company’s ex-

tensive line-up of interchangeable EF

lenses and EF CINE-SERVO lenses.

Supports various standard video-recording interfaces

As the camera supports various in-

terfaces normally used for shoot-

ing movies such as 3G/ HD-SDI and

HDMI terminals for output to external

recorders and monitors, as well as a re-

mote terminal making remote operation

possible with a remote control, confir-

mation of video is possible when shoot-

ing on location, as well as in difficult to

reach locations.

Polytechnics have been operated for

more than 44 years in Malaysia. In

2007, the 21st polytechnic, Polytechnic

Balik Pulau (PBU) was built in Penang

and was then fully operational in its per-

manent campus located in Balik Pulau at

the end of 2013.

After its completion, a scrutiniz-

ing eye has turned to the important is-

sue of safety in PBU, and with the rising

numbers of new individuals on campus,

security has since then become a more

prevalent issue.

Committed to providing safety and

protection on campus, PBU realized

that the existing CCTV system has lim-

ited fence and perimeter coverage. They

then decided to explore in upgrading its

CCTV system with vnetwork by install-

ing IP cameras in the compound. With

the new CCTV system installed, PBU has

now full surveillance coverage at almost

every corner in the campus and 24 hours

of video recording. With video analytics,

the cameras become a virtual 24/7 guard

that enables the system to raise an alarm

and notify the system user.

Today, PBU is fully satisfied with

Uniview CCTV performance and its

video quality as the advanced meg-

apixel IP cameras deliver superior

image quality and have much greater

field of view. As the video analytics

make the cameras more intelligent and

effective, it enables motion detection,

facial recognition, people and vehicle

counting, movement detection and

auto-tracking. With the additional ad-

vantages of reduced maintenance costs

and system scalability, PBU now can

access live recorded videos in any lo-

cation at any time.

acti video analytics – valuable resources for Business ManagementMost recorded video is never re-

viewed due to time constrains

or lack of resources. As a result, se-

curity incidents are often missed and

suspicious behavior is not detected

in time to prevent incidents. To solve

this problem, ACTi designed video

analytics that help you transform your

video surveillance network into a

C M Y K

regional roundup

smart detection system and a valuable

resource for business management.

Advanced image processing al-

gorithms, such as people counting or

license plate recognition, can be used

to recognize and track movement of

people and objects to determine their

behavior and provide analytical in-

sights. The summary reports can then

be displayed as interactive graphs and

exported. The system can also trigger

other network devices such as alarms,

electric gates or digital boards.

The unique video analysis tech-

nology developed by ACTi can power

not only dedicated analytic servers but

also network video recorders (NVR)

and intelligent cameras. Different so-

lutions are recommended for distinct

situations:

Video analysis using dedicated analytic server

ACTi’s Window-based Intelligent

Video Surveillance (IVS) Server

and Automatic License Plate Recogni-

tion (ALPR) Server offer great flex-

ibility and scalability. They can ana-

lyze a wide range of channels by using

a great variety of algorithms. If many

channels need to be analyzed or when

sophisticated analytics require high

computing power, the software can be

installed on powerful servers to ensure

the highest accuracy of results. Run-

ning a dedicated analytic server is also

required when surveillance systems

are not using NVRs or cameras with

built-in analytics. The extracted data

is stored on the dedicated servers and

can be simply accessed from remote

clients.

Video analysis using NVRs with built in analytics

ACTi’s most powerful NVR 3 Cor-

porate edition integrates many

state-of-the-art features such as POS

Management, IP Door Control, Net-

work DIO, Password Protected Play-

back and more. Its use is recommended

especially when the number of analyzed

channels is limited or when the analysis

doesn't require high computing power.

The extracted metadata is stored in the

database of NVR 3 Corporate and can

be accessed from remote clients and on

mobile devices using iOS or Android

platforms.

Video analysis using cameras with built-in

analytics

When only a single view needs to

be analyzed or when your surveil-

lance system is using a third party VMS

without built-in video analytics – cameras

with built-in analytics are highly recom-

mended. As intelligent cameras do not

depend on the network bandwidth and re-

sponse time, and they are the most suitable

option for cases that require immediate re-

sponse, such as PTZ auto-tracking. ACTi

has a wide range of cameras such as speed

dome, box and bullet type with models

that are equipped with built-in analytics.

Preparing comprehensive reports

Collecting data alone is useless if us-

ers are unable to draw vital informa-

tion from reports that can bring value to

the company’s operation. ACTi’s video

analytics can have processed data pre-

sented neatly in a form of clear and in-

teractive graphs. The summary is easy to

understand so immediate actions can be

taken. It can also be exported for the pur-

pose of sharing with other decision mak-

ers or archiving.

try to the location to retrieve any items,

products or documents from the vicin-

ity. However, hiring physical guards for

this purpose will only raise the com-

pany’s overhead costs. CCTVs, or bet-

ter known as ‘eyes in the sky,’ are now

fast becoming the preferred choice by

businesses due to superior imaging and

cost efficiency, such as the ones from

Canon.

Vouching for this stance is Pen-

fabric, a vertically-

integrated textile

manufacturer based

in Penang, Malaysia

which was founded

in 1973 and whol-

ly-owned by Toray

Industries Inc., Ja-

pan. Its four mills

undertake spinning,

weaving, dyeing,

printing and finish-

ing operations to produce yarns, grey

fabrics, finished fabrics, piece-dyed

fabrics, printed fabrics and yarn-dyed

(gingham) fabrics. Being the world’s

first integrated textile company to be

awarded the STeP by OEKO-TEX®

certificate for Sustainable Textile Pro-

duction and with it, the product label

‘Made in Green by OEKO-TEX®”,

Penfabric’s products are exported to

international apparel manufacturers,

mainly in the United States, Europe

and Japan.

Ingenuity, technical expertise cou-

pled with state-of-the-art machinery

and strong management are key ele-

ments that drive Penfabric to be one of

the best textile companies in the world.

In its relentless pursuit of quality, effi-

ciency and innovation, Penfabric found

that there was a need to improve se-

curity and an opportunity to enhance

productivity through effective surveil-

lance.

“Penfabric’s four mills are located

at distinct locations, two on the island

and two on the mainland of Penang re-

spectively. Due to the geographical dis-

tances, it was particularly challenging

to monitor and synchronize the work-

flow among all the mills. Our need was

clear – we wanted to enhance real time

“Physical security and safety of its people, plants and high-value products are of utmost impor-tance to Penfabric. Catering to globally renowned brands, it is a necessity for Penfabric to comply with international standards and stringent requirements, such as the Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) voluntary supply chain security

programme. With the recent installation of the state-of-the-art Canon IP security CCTV, I am assured that Penfabric will be able to operate more securely and efficiently as a leading textile manufacturer in the world.”

on, with their heritage of innovation,

backed by a well-regarded reputation

for quality and service, could deliver,”

said Mr Peter Chan, Associate Direc-

tor, Toray Industries (Malaysia) Sdn.

Berhad, in charge of Information Sys-

tems for Toray Group (Malaysia).

Before the upgrade, the quality of

Penfabric’s surveillance cameras was

below par. Physically, the cameras

were static with a limited field of view

and movement, whereby several areas

could not be supervised at all. Techni-

cally poor, the low-resolution of the

cameras failed to offer an acceptable

clarity of images. In addition, the slug-

gish speed of the cameras did not allow

for continuous supervision.

Thus, to maintain its standing as

one of the best, Penfabric decided to

invest in a commonly overlooked por-

tion of business – monitoring and se-

curity. It was important to Penfabric

that their new security cameras had

an ultra-wide-angle lens, offered full

featured detection capabilities (face

and object), and could be seamlessly

integrated with their existing network.

Canon’s VB Series of CCTVs were

then chosen for their compact design,

wide angle field of view and their ease

of control. The indoor and outdoor

cameras offer increased coverage of

100º horizontal field view, and possess

a versatile H.264 image compression

for enhanced picture quality – the per-

fect solution to Penfabric’s stringent

requirements.

Philippe saint-PereManaging directorstratel (Malaysia) sdn Bhd

interview

MalaysiaSAFE: Could you please tell us about yourself, and what got you to start your company in Malaysia?

Philippe Saint-Pere (PSP):Born in France, I grew up in the Paris

suburbs and studied Applied Mathemat-

ics at the University of Paris, Sorbonne.

In 1985, I enrolled in the 16-month

French business service mission abroad,

an alternative to the 12-month mandatory

military service imposed at that time to

Frenchmen. I arrived in Malaysia in 1986,

with the mission to set up a distribution

network for a French manufacturer of

alarm communication devices interested

to enter the South East Asian market.

Stratel (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd was estab-

lished in February 1988 and I became the

sole owner in 1992. Over time, Stratel has

become a leading wholesale distributor

of advanced electronic security products,

serving over 1,000 professional resellers

throughout South East Asia.

MalaysiaSAFE: What products and brands do you carry in your portfolio?

PSP: Stratel’s focus is on proactive

security solutions. Our product portfolio

includes intruder alarms with wireless

video alarm verification, IP based intel-

ligent video surveillance, central moni-

toring station hardware & software, se-

curity fog generators, biometrics access

control, real-time guard tour tracking

systems and GSM/ IP/ GPRS/ 3G/ SMS

alarm communicators.

Amongst others, Stratel distributes

prestigious brands like Paradox Security

Systems, Smokecloak, Avigilon, Oncam,

Morpho, Patriot Systems, MCDI Secu-

rity, ActiveGuard, Trikdis and Herta Se-

curity.

MalaysiaSAFE: What are the main evaluation criteria you lay down for qualifying the brands that you use?

PSP: We always search for products

and technologies that are different and

unique in their ability to resolve known

security challenges or current limita-

tions of existing products in the market.

Once a product has been identified, we

study the potential size of our market. We

then look at the manufacturer’s strength;

are they are able to support us? Is the

product proven enough? We also look

at ourselves: Do we have the necessary

resources and know-how to successfully

market and support the product? If the

answer to all is yes, we purchase samples

and perform in-house tests before com-

mitting on the distribution.

MalaysiaSAFE: What sets you apart from other industry players?

PSP: Stratel operates differently

in a number of ways. First, we focus on

offering preventive technologies that are

pro-active in nature and able to address

a crime in progress in real time. For

example, our Smokecloak fog security

devices are able to stop a crime in pro-

gress instantly and prevent any loss by

blinding intruders. Second, we seek to

be a value-added distributor with a dif-

ference. We place efforts on technology

awareness and product training. Third,

we help installers and integrators suc-

cessfully design and implement our se-

curity solutions.

MalaysiaSAFE: What is your ‘go-to-market’ strategy?

PSP: In today’s competitive envi-

ronment, a very important role for a dis-

tributor is end-user engagement and edu-

cation. End-users are overwhelmed with

the amount of products readily available.

They are often reacting to a security is-

sue and have limited time and resources

to identify and qualify the suitability of

a product. Likewise, installers and in-

C M Y K

C M Y K


tegrators are too busy looking for new

customers that they neglect updating

themselves on the latest technologies. To

be visible in the market the onus falls on

the distributor and its principals to invest

in educational seminars and conceptual-

ise solutions for each different segment

of the market.

MalaysiaSAFE: What are the verticals that you operate in?

PSP: Our products are widely used

in banking, commercial high security,

residential, gated communities, telcos,

guarding services and Alarm Receiving

Centres (ARC) to name a few.

MalaysiaSAFE: What are the challenges in executing projects in each of these verticals?

PSP: The challenges are multiple

and varied – from lack of infrastructure

that prevents implementation, an un-

derestimated budget, unidentified deci-

sion maker or unspecified installation

timeline, to the shortage of a qualified

integrator to deploy and install in the re-

quired time frame.

MalaysiaSAFE: Are you targeting any new verticals in the near future?

PSP: Indeed, with the addition of

new product lines, we are eyeing the lo-

gistics/ transportation, educational and

border control markets.

MalaysiaSAFE: How do you provide technical support for all completed projects?

PSP: Stratel sells only through in-

stallers and integrators. Yet, we work hand-

in-hand with our appointed project part-

ners to discuss and resolve technical issues

directly with end customers. We have a

strong support department on which Stra-

tel has forged its reputation. Our resellers

know they can turn to us for fixing issues.

We assist the integrator with site visits. If

necessary, we undertake to identify a new

party to serve and resolve a complex issue.

MalaysiaSAFE: Can you name some of the big projects that you have done recently?

PSP: The Malaysian postal servic-

es recently adopted our IP based alarm

reporting solution to monitor hundreds

of their outlets nationwide, overcoming

the challenges of PSTN based reporting.

TNB deployed a number of our multi-

sensor cameras to monitor and cover chal-

lenging site requirements for their power

distribution sites. Maxis deployed our vid-

eo analytics to detect and notify intrusions

at their tower sites in real time. UMW

Toyota selected our real-time guard tour

devices for their patrolling officers at their

car showrooms. Indah Water Konsortium

installed our cellular alarm reporting solu-

tion for 59 sites. Fastlane Emergency Re-

sources, a security monitoring provider,

deployed our mobile personal panic but-

ton system at 40 sites.

MalaysiaSAFE: In light of the recent economic downturn, was your business affected and how have you managed it?

PSP: Indeed, recently we are ob-

serving a sharp reduction in the num-

ber of new projects. Our strategy is to

spend more time educating our partners

and their customers on new technologies

and concepts solving security issues at a

lower price point. We are starting to offer

products with interactive mobile app ser-

vices to generate new income revenues.

MalaysiaSAFE: What is the value-add that you give to all your clients?

PSP: We place strong emphasis on

helping system integrators and install-

ers successfully test, evaluate, design

and implement security solutions based

on the latest technologies available. Two

years ago we moved into our own 3-sto-

rey building. We invested in a showroom

and training centre with a 36-seat audi-

torium where product briefings, semi-

nars and workshops are conducted on a

weekly basis, sometimes with the pres-

ence of our principals.

MalaysiaSAFE: What parameters do you consider when proposing a security solution to your clients?

PSP: We usually ask the following

questions: What is the exact security is-

sue faced by the customer? What is their

operational background (as sometimes

these are the main challenges to a suc-

cessful implementation)? What does the

customer want to achieve through his or

her security investment? These considera-

tions are very important to properly align

customers’ expectations with the actual

capability of the proposed solution. And

of course we try to obtain an estimate of

their budget to gauge the feasibility.

MalaysiaSAFE: Do your clients employ the services of a Consultant, or purely on inputs given by you?

PSP: I must say that the vast ma-

jority of our customers rely on our ex-

pertise to select suitable products and

formulate a proposal.

MalaysiaSAFE: What specific steps are you taking to educate this market about the range of products that you carry?

PSP: We set aside a sizeable budg-

et for organizing seminars, roadshows,

interview

C M Y K

C M Y K


and take part in targeted exhibitions.

We also seek strategic partnerships with

other vendors to formulate holistic solu-

tions and jointly promote each other’s

services.

MalaysiaSAFE: What are the upcoming trends in the security business sector in Malaysia?

PSP: We are observing an in-

creased interest towards personal safety

and personal tracking. On the monitor-

ing business, we see a growing desire for

universal software platforms and the em-

phasis is on integration, especially video

monitoring which is critical to instantly

validate an intrusion signal. Lastly, cus-

tomers are more accepting the fact that

a security investment consists of multi-

ple layers and technologies combined to

form a complete solution.

MalaysiaSAFE: Being part of the industry yourself, what do you hope to achieve that could influence or improve the industry as a whole?

PSP: It is my wish and inter-

est to raise the standard of security in

the country. I have conducted numer-

ous seminars on new technologies and

best security practices. I was part of the

working group with SIRIM in their ini-

tiative to define and adopt a Malaysian

Standard for certain categories of secu-

rity products. Last, I see a real need to

improve the standard of the guarding

industry. Our continuous efforts in cre-

ating awareness for the need of technol-

ogy to support guarding services will

hopefully have created an impact on the

overall standard in the country.

MalaysiaSAFE: What new initiatives have you chartered for next year?

PSP: We are about to launch an

e-commerce platform which will make

it easier for end users nationwide to

identify the right installer and provider

in their respective location. This will be

extended later to neighboring countries.

Also, together with our principals, we

are working on a number of certification

programs to help our partners gain rec-

ognition with a series of sales and techni-

cal workshops. That is just the beginning

as I feel there are many more aspects in

our industry that can be relooked from a

security distributor perspective.

Marine Approved Fire Alarm Control Panels Set Sail

Forty years ago a UK manufacturer began a quest to help

aid fire detection with the creation of manufactured alarm

control panels. Today that same company has taken their jour-

ney from land to sea with the development of a range of MED

approved and Lloyds Registered fire alarm control panels

which are revolutionising the marine market.

The Esento Marine range from Haes has been exclusively

developed to address the issues of limited form and function in

the conventional panels market for use at sea. Designed with

the severity of the potential situation in mind, these new panels

are equipped with programmable delays to outputs which allow

time for an investigation before invoking a full evacuation or

muster alarm.

Not only does this new feature-rich panel mitigate false

alarms with three false alarm management mode options, it

also contains additional components within the casing to en-

sure it’s not disrupted by increased vibrations encountered

during a journey. Reli-

ability and adaptability

lie at the heart of this

new range and with

availability of 2-12

conventional zones,

it’s the perfect choice

for the fire safety of all

small to medium sea-

faring vessels across

the globe.

Nic Mogford-Revess, Sales Director for LGM Products

commented, “The Esento Marine offers addressable technolo-

gies at a conventional detection price point and with a delivery

time of 3-5 days, it’s in a field of one for marine fire detection

panels.”

cessful IFSEC International in London, which saw increased

stand visitor numbers and considerable interest in the compa-

ny’s latest web-based product.

Sophie Wilkins, Marketing

Executive at TDSi commented,

“We were thrilled by the interest in

GARDiS at IFSEC International,

so we are very excited to be show-

casing it to visitors, customers and

partners in Kuala Lumpur in Sep-

tember. This will be the fourth time

we have exhibited at IFSEC South-

east Asia and last year we enjoyed a

50% increase in visitors, so we have great expectations that 2016

will prove to be another highly successful event.”

who were unable to visit London, the chance to see GARDiS for

themselves. As a web-based application it offers greater flexibil-

ity and suitability to modern applications, whilst maintaining the

highest levels of security and dependability. We have ensured

the range is built around an ONVIF Profile A and C compliant

platform, which has recently been adopted by The IEC as the de-

facto new international standard for access control. This makes

GARDiS highly compatible with many other systems and sup-

pliers, as well as being significantly future-proof.”

CALMS Revolutionizing Airport ID Application through Smart Card Solution

As society continues to grow and flourish with time, there

is also the looming fact that with growth comes instabil-

ity. Thus it is no surprise that areas with high traffic of people

going in and out, such as airports, have implemented stringent

measures in order to counteract such issues. The ultimate goal

in airport security is to provide safety and prevent illegal ac-

tions directed towards those on board or on the ground through

safety measures such as screening of passengers, employees

and items that are brought to/ from the airport.

All Security Technology Sdn Bhd exhibits at IFSEC SEA

All Security Technology Sdn Bhd begun as an installa-

tion and service company specializing in security facili-

ties back in 1995. Through quality and responsive services,

the company has established itself in the automation industry

and has gained many loyal customers. Today, the company

has grown into a major supplier of security and automation

solutions in Malaysia specializing in gate automation motors.

All Security Technology Sdn Bhd focuses on 4 main product

lines under the AST Brand – Auto Gate System, Access Con-

trol System, CCTV Surveillance System and Burglary Alarm

System. Additionally, they are the authorized wholesaler for

other security and automation product brands such as QTRON,

DoorGuard, Bluguard, Soyal and many more.

Automatic gate system

Automatic gates are used to control access into a secured

area. Most commonly, automatic gates are used at the

entrance of a facility to control vehicular access on and off

the site. All Security Technology Sdn Bhd provides industrial

grade high performance doors which can open and close at

various speeds.

Access control systems

AST’s automatic gates can be operated by a variety of

access control devices, including card readers, vehicle

tag readers, digital keypads, and portable wireless transmit-

ters. In most commercial installations, the automatic gates are

controlled by the same access control system that is used to

control the entrance doors to the buildings, allowing the same

access card to be used in both places.

Additionally, intercom stations can be installed at automat-

ic gates to give visitors and delivery drivers a means to contact

someone inside the facility when the gate is closed.

With a successful track record in the Malaysian aviation

sector both locally and internationally, the Contractor ID Issu-

ance Management System (CIDMS) by CALMS Technologies

is currently one of Malaysia’s leading security system. The CI-

DMS is the best solution to manage contractor ID issuance

in a systematic and centralized manner for both management

and contractors. Through a consolidated system, the recorded

registered data enables everything to be located in one location

which can be accessed from anywhere via its browser. Among

the benefits of the system are:

● Improvement in ID issuance process and authentication ac-

curacy.

● Simplified system that enhances overall organization in

card registration and issuance process.

● Online registration for contractors through Intranet web

system.

● Modular solution – enables future upgrades with One Card

Solution.

● Environmentally friendly – less paper usage.

● Cost, time and energy saving.

The system comes in two core modules:

Web registration

Submission request for contractor ID via web registration

can be done at multiple branches where applications can

be controlled in a secure centralized location. All applications

are submitted electronically anywhere and at anytime, where

a blacklist screening will occur in order to ensure proper ap-

proval and card issuance. Also, through web registration, con-

tractors are able to monitor their application progress.

Card issuance

Upon approval, card holder information is automatically

updated to the CALMS card issuance and management

system. The Identification badges are then printed, data en-

coded and issued in a secure environment with the necessary

surface security features and assigned template design for the

particular type of contractors. Based on the assigned policy,

each type of contractor access right will also be automatically

updated to the door access control system. Each activity un-

dertaken within the system is registered to provide the nec-

essary audit trail for verification in case of dispute etc. The

system helps the user to automate related processes thus helps

to significantly reduce cost, enhances the monitoring process

and data integrity while at the same time achieving security

compliance.

ALPHAFINITY’S Cameras Provide Stable and Superior Quality Imaging for Surveillance at South Klang Valley Expressway

A stable security

system plays a

critical role in the man-

operations. Traffic vol-

ume, fare collection

and license plate num-

bers need to be clearly

recorded for inspection

when requested. Furthermore, whenever unexpected incidents

occur, high quality videos with megapixel resolution can be

valuable to obtain post-event forensic evidence.

ALPHAFINITY’s B261 cameras have superior image

quality and capacity to cope with challenging environmen-

tal conditions. With an advanced day-and-night functionality

and excellent compat-

ibility with third-party

software, the cameras

were chosen to secure

C M Y K


veillance at SKVE’s toll station access lanes, equipped with an

IP67 & IK10 rated housing to withstand harsh weather condi-

tions and dust. With the camera’s adaptive motorized lens and

enhanced with WDR Pro,

it can overcome chang-

ing light conditions in real

time and provide superb

image quality around the

clock.

Moreover, the B261

is equipped with an intel-

ligent zoom and focus lens and built-in Smart IR illuminators

with an effective range of up to 20 meters. The adaptive Smart

IR illuminators prevent over exposures. This enables clear im-

aging of license plates, and vehicles detected will have instant

notifications sent to the administrators.

interview

MalaysiaSAFE: Could you please share your background before taking up your current role.

RazaliAziz(RA): I grew up

in Teluk Intan, Perak. After receiv-

ing my Cambridge MCE, I joined

the Police College in 1976. In 1983,

I went to Hazaribagh Bihar, India

for a police commando course un-

der the Colombo Plan Scholarship.

When I came back, I was sent to the

Malaysian Army Combat Training

Centre (PULADA) to be exposed to

conventional warfare. Subsequently,

in 1985 I was transferred from the

police field-force to the Criminal In-

vestigations Department (CID) of the

Perak Police Contingent, as an officer

in D4 division for intelligence pro-

curement. A year later I was posted

as Area Inspector in Pusing, Tronoh.

It was in this position where I was

exposed to investigative duties in

cases such as crimes, fatal accidents

and sudden death reports. In 1990, I

joined the Special Actions Unit, or as

we call it UTK. I served in the UTK

as an acting ASP until 1996, when I

was promoted to DSP and posted to

Johor as Officer-in-Charge of serious

crimes. While I was in Johor, I was

offered a place to get my Diploma in

Police Sciences. Later, I was posted

to Banting as Deputy OCPD, where I

spent 4 years and then in 2005, I was

transferred to Limbang, Sarawak.

Finally after serving the Royal

Malaysia Police for almost twenty

nine and a half years, I took optional

retirement and left the force to join

the private sector. The first company

I joined was Chemical Company of

Malaysia as Group Security Manag-

er where later I became the General

Manager of Security, looking after all

of CCM’s interests in the ASEAN re-

gion. Then in 2013, Tradewinds Plan-

tation came knocking and offered me

a contract as their General Manager,

Head of Security. After 2 years, I left

and joined Sime Darby Plantations

last year where I am currently the

Head of Security for upstream busi-

ness. I now hold a Master’s Degree

in Social Sciences for Strategic &

Security Analysis from the National

University of Malaysia.

MalaysiaSAFE: Please explain the nature of business for Sime Darby Plantation.

RA: Basically Sime Darby Plan-

tation manages oil palm and rubber

plantations in Malaysia. We are the

plantation and agri-business arm of

the Sime Darby Group. The upstream

business encompass the cultivation

of palm trees from seedlings right to

the point where we harvest and de-

liver the fruit bunches to our mills so

we can process them into crude palm

oil (CPO). After that, we will pass it

downstream for the CPOs to be pro-

cessed and manufactured into palm

tn. hj. Mohd razali abd azizhead of security upstream,sime darby Plantation sdn Bhd

C M Y K


oil based products such as consum-

able oils, oleo-chemicals and other

palm oil derivatives. We are one of

the largest palm oil producers in the

world.

MalaysiaSAFE: What is your role as Head of Security Upstream?

RA: My role is to set, imple-

ment and manage the security proto-

cols for all estate plantations owned

by the company. The main focus is

access control and how to define our

parameters.

MalaysiaSAFE: How do you manage to secure all assets across the county?

RA: Currently I am managing

a workforce of around 1,800 which

consists of auxiliary policemen and

security personnel, spread over the

whole of peninsular and East Malay-

sia. We have been given authority by

the Royal Malaysia Police to estab-

lish our own auxiliary police force

in this organisation. To look after the

security of all our 126 oil palm es-

tates, spanning over 300,000 hectares

of planted area in the peninsular, Sa-

bah and Sarawak, we separate them

into respective regions. The central

region of Perak, Kedah, Pahang and

Selangor has one Security Manager;

in the southern region covering Neg-

eri Sembilan, Melaka and Johor we

have another Security Manager; and

we have one manager for Sabah &

Sarawak. All of these managers are

assisted by security executives or an

assistant security manager, covering

their respective zones.

There is a lot of movement in and

out of our estates, involving many

parties like transporters bringing

in fertilizers or tankers sending out

CPO. So we have to regulate these

by establishing a First Point of Entry

in the form of a 24-hour police post.

We have a set of rules and regulations

that must be complied with in each

facility that you enter, and we con-

stantly have auxiliary police person-

nel on patrol at all our estates.

MalaysiaSAFE: What is the scope of your department’s duties?

RA: At the moment, the scope of

our department is towards upstream

business only. But we are in discus-

sions to extend our duties down-

stream. The downstream businesses

have their own auxiliary police force

but they report to the respective busi-

ness unit heads. I think you need to

understand the laws, regulations,

compliance and how the police sys-

tem works to manage an auxiliary

police force. Because for an auxil-

iary police officer, they would need

to know what are their legal powers

and limitations. Being an ex-police

officer does have its advantages in

knowing these things because you

have been practising and exposed to

it basically your entire career. But if

we do go downstream, the coverage

becomes larger because we have re-

fineries in other countries such as in

Europe, China and Thailand. Then we

may be required to visit those facili-

ties to make security risk assessments

and vetting of the security providers

that are currently being outsourced.

MalaysiaSAFE: How do you keep a check on crime in your estates?

RA: We have a close network-

ing with the police. It so happens

that I am still in touch with my for-

mer squad mates who are all now

senior police officers serving across

the country. So in terms of having a

close relationship between the police

and our community to curb crime, we

have got that covered. On top of that,

our auxiliary police officers have the

same powers as regular police except

for the provision that it is only con-

fined to our prescribed areas.

MalaysiaSAFE: What are the most common security threats to the business?

RA: The main one I would say is

theft of our Fresh Fruit Bunch (FFB).

Illegal harvesting and misappropria-

tion of company property are other

issues that we look into regularly.

Sometimes when you have the local-

ity of estates within close proximity

of the community or residential ar-

eas, you may get problems like gang-

sterism; where our staff would be

provoked and intimidated. Then there

can also be a concern on coalition of

our own staff with illegal syndicates

or third parties.

MalaysiaSAFE: How do you plan to counter these threats?

RA: In addition to having an

auxiliary police force at your dis-

posal, I believe security is about re-

inforcement and the total concept

of protection and domination. For

example, you protect your house by

putting padlocks on the grills or se-

curing your doors and windows. So

this is a protected house. But you

only dominate it once you have put

up a fence, alarms, CCTVs, spot-

lights and so on. Planning and pre-

paring for any eventuality means you

have to apply the total concept of

interview

interview

protection and domination. It would

not be sufficient if you have all the

systems in the world, but you still do

not lock your doors. So crime pre-

vention is basically about awareness

of your situation and environment.

Therefore, I also strategize and plan

my security based on the concept of

crime prevention through environ-

mental design.

MalaysiaSAFE: How do you provide training to your staff?

RA: We have monthly musketry

trainings and other drills. The train-

ings are conducted either in their

respective zones or centrally at the

Sime Darby Security Training Centre

in Rantau, near Negeri Sembilan.

MalaysiaSAFE: How much emphasis do you place on technology to prevent security breaches?

RA: Very much. We need tech-

nology such as CCTVs and guard

tour system to protect our properties

and most importantly our people.

Perhaps in the future we may even

turn to drones for surveillance and

the gathering of intelligence in areas

which are not easily accessible. And

we also rely on social media such as

having a Whatsapp group chat for all

security managers and executives so

that messages can be relayed directly

and immediately to me. This is also

a platform for mentoring our junior

colleagues by making away with bu-

reaucracy and protocol for them to

easily receive instructions and direc-

tion.

MalaysiaSAFE: What would be on your wish list to improve your department?

RA: It would have to be more

budget on training of soft skills and

basic infrastructures at locations

where we are still lacking; and bring

them all up to standard. If I had my

way, I would like to have the guard

posts installed with air condition-

ers and give some comfort to my

officers. Of course if the guards are

caught sleeping then, as what my

boss would say, there can be a reward

or reprimand for every situation. I

would like to set a benchmark for my

auxiliary police force to be the best

in the country but for now, there is

still room for improvement.

MalaysiaSAFE: What do you like about your job?

RA: Being a police officer since

I was 18, I have always liked going

against people who take the law into

their own hands and take advantage

of society. As far as the security of

this company is concerned, I am giv-

en the power and trust to make sure

that it is protected, and I will do it

to the best I can. I want people to

feel safe and my auxiliary police to

be a reliable force. In Islam, those

who work in shifts looking after the

well-being of other people and their

property, the rewards are just like a

person fasting for a whole month in

Ramadhan. So this is what I am try-

ing to cascade down to my staff too

– that what we are doing is something

good.

MalaysiaSAFE: Can you share some memorable experiences on the job?

RA: Recently one of my guards

was attacked by 4 thugs. His head

was slashed and required 38 stiches.

My networking with the OCPD of

Kuala Selangor allowed us to ap-

prehend the culprits and get them

charged in court. I was deeply emo-

tional looking at the condition of

my staff who almost lost his life and

from then, I wanted all my auxiliary

police officers to have an inward and

outward effect on the community. In-

wards meaning I want them to make

all our staff and the people living in

the estates feel secure. Outwards, the

would be perpetrators should fear us

because now we are armed with shot-

guns. We can exercise our rights to

private defence under Section 100 of

the Penal Code.

MalaysiaSAFE: How do you go about selecting the right partners to provide for security solutions?

RA: I look at the profile of the

company to see whether they have

good corporate governance and are

up to standard with security best

practices. As an example, for surveil-

lance systems, what we need is for

evidence capture rather than for early

detection. So the system must have a

good storage, resolution and foren-

sic capabilities. Nowadays you must

build a prima facie case in court and

prove beyond reasonable doubt when

prosecuting someone, and you cannot

do that without the hard evidence.

MalaysiaSAFE: What does the future hold for your department?

RA: I believe that sooner or lat-

er, we will be the best auxiliary po-

lice force in the country. This is on

top of improving our security infra-

structure. The most important thing

is that the risk mitigating efforts must

be done correctly.

The internet of things (IoT) is driv-

ing advances in technology and

functionality in many industries, and

the remote monitoring industry is no

exception. New market data from IHS

estimates the global remote monitoring

market was worth $24.7 billion in 2015.

Connected systems and services are ex-

pected to play a large role in the growth

of this industry in the coming years.

The American market for remote

monitoring services is the largest re-

gional market – nearly as large as the

entire European and Asian remote moni-

toring markets combined. This region

is expected to experience high penetra-

tion in the residential sector, which will

increase still further through the year

2020.

There is wide agreement in the

industry that connected systems and

services will lead growth in this mar-

ket. However, there are vast differ-

ences in opinion when it comes to the

magnitude of growth that connected

systems will provide. Some industry

experts believe market penetration for

monitored security will only increase

a little, and the connected market will

offer growth through increased rev-

enue opportunities within the existing

customer base. Others are expecting

a surge of new customers, caused by

new functions and better technology,

resulting in penetration increasing by

double digits by 2020.

There are numerous factors to con-

sider when assessing the effects of the

IoT on the monitoring industry, both in

terms of the number of accounts and to-

tal revenue. They include the following:

● As they become more accessible,

available and functional, connected

system technologies are bringing

monitored security to more consum-

ers.

● Telecommunications companies

continue to put pressure on the

North American remote-monitoring

market – led by Comcast, AT&T,

Time Warner Cable and other pro-

viders. The solutions these compa-

nies offer are connected systems,

providing additional functions in-

cluding remote notification and

alarm system control.

● Telecommunications companies

have also increased market aware-

ness of monitoring and smart-home

solutions, through large marketing

and advertising campaigns.

● Additional smart-home services and

devices are often offered alongside

monitored security solutions. Video

devices are one of the most success-

ful products in this regard, with cloud

storage and other associated services

offering additional recurring revenue

opportunities. These options allow

providers to increase their average

revenue per user.

● The market for do-it-yourself (DIY)

installed and self-monitored con-

nected systems is growing. These

systems offer lower ongoing costs

and often provide enough consumer

peace of mind for the reduced cost.

As the reliability and accessibility

of these systems increases, they will

become increasingly competitive

with the residential remote-moni-

toring market.

connected services drive growth and opportunities in remote Monitoring Markets

● For consumers who prefer an ele-

ment of professional monitoring,

ad-hoc monitoring services offering

contract-free, short-term monitoring,

are serving this emerging market.

In 2015 the connected residen-

tial monitored security market in the

Americas was worth $3.1 billion – about

one-third of the size of the traditional

monitored security market, valued at

$9.4 billion. The traditional market is

expected to decline, as services transi-

tion over to connected systems, resulting

in the two markets reaching equivalent

sizes by 2020.

The industry is expected to grow

strongly into 2020, but much of this

growth is due to increasing revenue gener-

ated by each user, rather than an increased

number of accounts. While the number of

smart-home systems will indeed increase

the penetration rate of monitored security

products, the market is only expected to

grow 1 percent by 2020.

The European market has also be-

gun the transition to connected services

and systems. However, this transition is

happening slower than in North Ameri-

ca. The slower transition is due to more

fragmented markets and a lower pene-

tration of security solutions in the resi-

dential market. Adoption is strongest

in the Nordic region of Europe, where

a relatively high penetration rate for

monitored security and high technology

adoption provides ideal market condi-

tions for service providers to make the

transition earlier. More opportunities

for energy management solutions are

expected in the European market, than

in the Americas, due to rising energy

costs in many countries.

The commercial market is also gain-

ing the benefits of increasing technology

adoption. The video-monitoring market

is a key growth area for the large com-

mercial sector, driven by improving

broadband infrastructure, increases in

video analytics capabilities and decreas-

ing costs of equipment.

Existing service providers will need

to keep up with technology adoption

within the industry, as service providers

look to differentiate their products and

increase their revenue per user within

an increasingly competitive and widen-

ing market.

control room technologies and services Market to reach $7.6 Billion by 2020, ihs Markit says

The command and control room

and public safety answering point

(PSAP) market is expected to grow at a

compound annual growth rate of 7.1 per-

cent from $5.4 billion in 2015 to reach

$7.6 billion in 2020, according to IHS

Markit (Nasdaq: INFO), a world leader

in critical information, analytics and so-

lutions. Major factors spurring market

growth include national public safety in-

itiatives like FirstNet and NG911 in the

United States, technology integration

and system interoperability, the increas-

ing value placed on ‘big data’ and ana-

lytics, and control room consolidation.

While growth in the public safety

sector – the control room market’s larg-

est industry – has recently been stagnant,

we expect strong growth over the next

four years,” said Alexander Richardson,

Market Analyst for Critical Communi-

er-aided dispatch (CAD), geographic

information systems (GIS), records-

management software (RMS) and

other systems is picking up, according

the IHS Markit Command and Con-

trol Intelligence Service – 2016. In the

United States for instance, a number of

public safety agencies have refreshed

their CAD systems over the last two

years, as the technologies reach their

end of life after 12 to 15 years in ser-

vice. In India, by comparison, large

states are placing an emphasis on re-

gionally integrated CAD and GIS

systems, to improve the efficiency of

emergency response.

Across industries, IHS Markit has

observed a convergence in control-

room functions. Where there were once

dedicated communications and security

control centers, operators are now seek-

ing to combine these capabilities. The

CAD system is the focal point of this

movement – paving the way in the inte-

gration of various forms of data. Video

dispatching is now also becoming a

reality, with trials taking place in Asia

and Africa. “It is evident that the dis-

patcher’s role is changing, as more data

becomes available and GIS is used to

visualize the location of this informa-

tion,” Richardson said.

Big changes in emergency response

are expected over the next 15 to 20

years, especially in the public safety

sector. “Not only will 911 become just

another number, but Cloud, broad-

band networks and video surveillance

are also spurring changes in control

rooms, offering huge growth potential

to the market,” Richardson said, “While

growth in voice dispatch and licensed

mobile radio technology markets will

be influenced by the traction of pub-

lic safety broadband networks, other

market forecasts for CAD, GIS, RMS,

911-call-taking software and other

technologies are very favorable.”

Background

Durrat Al Bahrain is a luxury artifi-

cial island chain in Bahrain, featur-

ing a total of 15 large islands that hold an

18-hole golf course, marina, restaurants

and shops, and over 1000 villas in a 21

km2 (13 mi2) area. As the area became

more popular and drew an increasing

number of tourists, the resort owner need-

ed a high-security surveillance solution

that would cover all main areas, including

points of access and the holiday villas.

Dahua and local system integrator,

Absolute Electronic Technology, whom

they had previously worked with, were

called to solve this complex surveillance

issue for the island chain. Dahua pro-

vided a number of weather-resistant HD

network cameras and video transmitters,

as well as high-speed, HD DVRs as part

of this customized solution.

Challenge

An important condition while im-

plementing this solution was that

since Durrat Al Bahrain is an island

chain, traditional wired or simple wire-

less transmission methods would not

suffice to support live video feeds over

the large remote area. Instead, an in-

novative solution was required in order

to ensure reliable long-range wireless

video transmission throughout the area.

With numerous five-star hotels, a

golf course, 12 bridges, a marina, along

with complex land and villa configura-

tions on the crescent-shaped man-made

islands, camera setups needed to be ver-

satile, covering a large field of view to

guarantee the safety of island tourists

and workers while being discreet so as

to preserve the luxurious nature of the

island’s design. Cameras not only need-

ed to support wireless transmission, but

also withstand various outdoor condi-

tions such as rain, storms, and relatively

hot summer temperatures.

Solution

In order to supply high-quality, wire-

less video feeds over the entire resort,

Dahua employed a comprehensive solu-

tion entailing the use of 5.2GHz WLAN

AP wireless HD camera products and the

versatile, long-range 5.8GHz Wireless

Video Transmission Device (PFM881).

High-speed preview and playback digital

video recorders (DVR) were also inte-

grated into this solution, allowing work-

ers to view live video feeds in up to 4K

resolution, while supporting the record-

ing of video onto high-capacity HDDs.

The main camera used in this pro-

ject was the 2MP Full HD network IR

bullet camera (IPC-HFW2220R-Z). Its

enhanced wireless transmission abilities

and high-quality image ensure complete

coverage. In order to protect against ver-

satile weather conditions, namely rain

and sea water, Dahua enclosed the con-

nections for each HD network camera in

its Waterproof Junction Box (PFA135).

Multiple 2MP Full HD network

vandal-proof IR wedge dome cam-

eras (IPC-HDBW4220F) were also

installed, and 32 channel super 4K net-

work video recorders (NVR608-32-4K)

were installed to collect the various HD

video feeds sent wirelessly from trans-

mitters.

Results

The wireless network infrastructure

used in this solution significantly

improved the efficiency in placing sur-

veillance around the islands. HD Net-

work cameras guarantee top-level se-

curity due to high quality recording and

advanced wireless live video transmis-

sion and playback.

As a result of this wireless solution,

multiple types of cameras cover the is-

land chain, which send feeds through

long-range wireless transmitters to mul-

tiple HD DVR recorders. Because the

recorders are more centralized and less

devices and components are required in

a wireless setup, the entire system was

able to be implemented at a lower cost

than other traditional configurations.

Durrat Al Bahrain is now much more se-

cure and vacationing tourists are safer.

The Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Devlet

Demiryolları (TCDD) – State Rail-

ways of the Turkish Republic – Regional

4 Directorate of Administration required

a system which could identify unsafe

or potentially unsafe situations, day or

night, at the 41 level crossings on its Si-

vas, Erzincan, Erzurum and Kars lines.

The challenge

The TCDD Region 4 Directorate of

Administration wanted an infra-

structure that would support a ready-to-

use CCTV system to record images at

these automatic-barrier level crossings.

The system had to cover all areas sur-

rounding the level crossings and provide

detailed wide-angle shots.

The Sony solution

To provide safety monitoring at the

level crossings on the TCDD Re-

gion 4 Directorate's network, 41 Sony

SNC-VM772R security cameras were

used in the newly established security

system.

With four times the resolution of

Full HD, the SNC-VM772R is Sony’s

first 4K networked security camera. This

4K technology brings industry-leading

clarity and sensitivity to critical video

monitoring and surveillance systems.

The camera features a large, highly

sensitive type 1.0 back-illuminated

Exmor R™ CMOS image sensor, a high-

speed image processing engine and a

high-quality zoom lens. These compo-

nents ensure unparalleled

low-light sensitivity at

brightness values as low

as 0.06 lux and extraordi-

nary 4k/30 fps image re-

cording. This means that

the SNC-VM772R is able

to capture images with a

level of quality simply

not offered by traditional

4K CCTV cameras.

The 20-megapixel

sensor also enables high-

quality still image record-

ing at a resolution even

higher than 4K, allowing

close examination of a

scene to be used as evi-

dence. Picture settings are automatically

selected to suit a wide range of environ-

mental factors such as weather, time and

lighting conditions to provide the best

picture quality for the scene. The camera

features a rugged vandal and weather-

resistant design that is ideal for tough

round-the-clock video security and sur-

veillance applications, both indoors and

outdoors.

The result

with the use of Axxonsoft video analy-

sis software, allow the detection of any

obstructions that may create unsafe situ-

ations – preventing incidents before they

arise and providing a full picture of any

incidents that may occur when trains

cross the level crossing. Before a train

crosses, the system is able to detect any

obstruction on the level crossing rails

or any stray objects in the surround-

ing area. Thanks to the video analysis,

it is no longer necessary for images to

be continuously monitored by an opera-

tor, and when a potentially dangerous

situation does arise, the system alerts

the user immediately. The system pro-

vides live monitoring and the ability to

investigate any incidents that may occur.

LASE PeCo Systemtechnik GmbH,

Germany located solution provider

for security applications, announces the

successful commissioning of a laser-

based clearance test system for the de-

tection of foreign objects on the landing

fields at Cologne Bonn Airport (CGN).

With its measurement system

called ‘Airfield Luggage Detection’

(LaseALD), LASE PeCo has installed

a product which fulfills the specific re-

quirements and conditions of the Co-

logne Bonn Airport. This airport is one

of the biggest German hubs in the field

of freight traffic and especially here, a

laser-based object detection on the land-

ing fields is necessary due to the existing

ban on night flights. Thus a highly pre-

cise and reliable detection of objects in

the crossroads area of the landing fields

is ensued.

Particularly on this site in Cologne-

Bonn detours shall be avoided as well

as a time saving of approximately 15

minutes can be achieved. Previously

each vehicle had to give a wide berth to

the airfield. For example one logistics

provider carries perishable food to the

maneuvering area in order to supply the

airplanes. Initially the construction of a

bridge or tunnel was planned as an alter-

native, but wasn’t feasible due to com-

plex structural measures. This is why the

application LaseALD proves itself as an

3d laser technology for cologne Bonn airport

Successful commissioning of a laser-based clearance test system for the detection of foreign objects on the landing fields at Cologne Bonn Airport (CGN)


and its planned lifespan is between 6 and

7 years.

“Using Sony’s SNC-VM772R cam-

eras, the system that we have brought

online monitors the level crossings live

and is able to detect any issues that may

threaten safety, allowing the necessary

precautions to be taken,” said Mustafa

Görkem, Director of Operations, Siber-

netik Teknoloji, “Furthermore, with IR

lighting, it is able to perform in low or

no-light situations. As such, this will be

the main tool that TCDD staff use to de-

tect unsafe situations before an incident

occurs, 24 hours a day.”

Why Sony was chosen

Sony’s SNC-VM772R cameras were

selected because of their outstand-

ing features, including 4K quality im-

ages and the sensor’s ability to operate

down to a size of 1 inch, both day and

night. The SNC-VM772R can monitor

a wider field of vision than fixed dome

cameras and its high image quality

makes the identification of individuals

much easier. Its domed shape also acts

as a deterrent, as individuals are unable

to identify exactly in which direction the

camera is facing.

It’s sheltered through weather protection

housing against general weather condi-

tions and has an individual angle setting

of +/- 45°. The 3D laser scanner has a

scan range of up to 80 m and by its high

scan frequency of 20/40 Hz it detects

objects reliably. The application soft-

ware uses special algorithms to detect

the objects on the airfield, whereby static

objects like signs or boundaries are fil-

tered out. The final status of the open

a separate monitor.


ideal solution after extensive tests.

At Cologne Bonn Airport this

laser-based application ensures a reli-

able detection of fallen items of lug-

gage with minimum dimensions of

50x40x20 cm, which derive from the

trolley after passing the crossroads

area. Thus damages to the airplanes by

these objects can be avoided. Before

two installed boom gates close, the

crossroads area is checked for foreign

objects by two 3D laser scanners. Af-

ter it the operator receives a message

on his display. In case of an object de-

tection an alarm will be given imme-

diately, whereby the detected objects

are shown within the LASE-Software

three-dimensionally.

The application is an overall sys-

tem of different hardware components,

which consists of a 3D laser scanner,

CAN/ Ethernet converter, industrial-

PC, digital I/O-Module and a display

for status information. Point of installa-

tion of the 3D laser scanners is a pylon

construction near the runway boundary.

The challenge

SEA-TAC sought to upgrade its six

disparate and analog-based video

surveillance systems into one fully

merged IP-based solution. At that time,

the airport’s surveillance network con-

sisted of hundreds of analog and IP cam-

eras, and it was interested in leveraging

existing investments where possible.

Working with systems integrator Inger-

soll Rand, SEA-TAC developed a plan

to migrate its analog cameras to digital

through the use on encoders and deploy

a centralized security management sys-

tem from Genetec.

SEA-TAC Airport also opted to

deploy Pivot3 vSTAC hyperconverged

infrastructure (HCI) appliances for

video storage. The Pivot3 appliances

host the Genetec Omnicast video man-

agement software and archive record-

ed video on 11 virtual servers. More

than 120 terabytes of Pivot3 storage

is available, providing support for ap-

proximately 1,100 cameras.

The solution

Pivot3’s purpose-built vSTAC

surveillance series appliances

are designed to ensure that critical

video surveillance streams are both

stored and protected. Pivot3 HCI

platforms deliver enterprise-class

video surveillance IT infrastructure

in a simple-to-deploy and scale-out

appliance model. Pivot3’s unique ap-

proach offers the simplicity of tra-

ditional server-based systems while

eliminating performance and data

loss risks, and manageability issues.

Better performance and higher avail-

ability are achieved without the en-

terprise cost, complexity and skills

imposed by legacy SAN/ NAS with

separate servers.

The results

With the virtualized nature of

Pivot3 vSTAC software, SEA-

TAC eliminated the need for standalone

physical servers, which enabled the or-

ganization to save 40 percent in power

and cooling. Pivot3 HCI appliances also

deliver failover for video applications,

allowing the airport to meet the Trans-

portation Security Administration’s

stringent reliability requirements.

on SRN-1673S 16 camera channel

NVRs which are equipped with a

built-in PoE+ switch. The SRN-1673S

was an attractive option as it offers the

opportunity to significantly reduce in-

Purple Parking improves control with Morse watchmans Key Management solutions

Purple Parking, the largest off airport

car park operator in the UK, has

improved operations and increased ef-

ficiency at London’s Heathrow Airport

using Morse Watchmans’ KeyWatcher

key management system. With their

38 distinctive purple buses, numerous

company cars and 110 drivers on site at

the five-terminal airport, Purple Park-

ing uses their automated KeyWatcher

system to control vehicle usage and im-

prove driver accountability.

The KeyWatcher system is used to

regulate, store and track keys for vehi-

cles used to transport customers between

the various Purple Parking facilities and

the airport. Keys are kept in the tamper-

proof cabinet when not in use, and only

pre-programmed authorized users can

access a vehicle key during their work-

ing hours. All access activity is automat-

ically recorded, allowing management

to view live or recorded data showing

which keys are out and with whom,

and when the keys were returned or are

scheduled to be returned. To help ensure

operational control, if a key is returned

late, an alert is sent to management via

e-mail or SMS text.

“The KeyWatcher thoroughly suits

our purpose at the airport,” says Jim

Betchley, Transportation Manager at

Purple Parking, “Among other features,

the tracking and reporting functions

have significantly improved our opera-

tional efficiency. The information allows

us to respond faster to any problems and

to track trends that could prove costly if

not addressed in a timely manner.”

Some of the other features to which

Betchley refers include the group re-

lease function, which lets management

sequentially distribute keys so vehicles

get equal use. This also enables opti-

mization of scheduling for service and

maintenance. A key reservation function

guarantees that private cars will be avail-

able when needed or reserved, and won’t

already be in use. Overall, Betchley says

the system helps keep schedules, drivers

and vehicles organized.

downloads the data to the department

computer, allowing management to sort

and analyze information.

“Fleet management in general is a

perfect match for the KeyWatcher sys-

tem, and this application is particularly

suited to the technology,” said Fernando

Pires, VP Sales and Marketing, Morse

Watchmans, “Purple Parking’s reputa-

tion relies on good transport organiza-

tion to meet customer demand, and Key-

Watcher helps them achieve that goal.”

Taipei City Hospital has adopted

Surveon’s network cameras and

NVR for their surveillance applica-

tion. With Surveon’s end-to-end prod-

uct lineup, including high-resolution

cameras and enterprise hardware RAID

megapixel recorders, Taipei City Hospi-

tal can effectively track every corner of

their premises round the clock to ensure

the security of this medical facility.

Combined with 10 municipal hos-

pitals in Taipei, Taipei City Hospital

is the largest medical organization in

Northern Taiwan, aiming to rebuild the

public health system and provide full

services for people in healthcare needs.

As incidents like patient fights or dis-

putes among the staff, patients and their

families often take place in the emergen-

cy room, the surveillance videos have

become crucial evidences to unveil the

truth during investigations. However, the

traditional CCTV system deployed by

Taipei City Hospital failed to provide

images in high resolution as well as per-

form long-time recording due to the lack

of storage capacity. In order to protect

the reputation and staff of the hospital,

the hospital needed to seek a better sur-

veillance system to clear the issues when

conflicts happen. To meet the demands

from the customer, Surveon provided an

upgraded surveillance system to keep

everything under control.

Thanks to its

compact size, the

compact dome cam-

era CAM1320S2

comes with 2-axis

support, providing

a wider coverage

while not being too

obtrusive for the patients. The indoor

dome CAM4311S2 with audio in/ out

with phone jacks supports the hospital

to record and effectively manage con-

flicts or disputes occurring in the emer-

gency room. Both models provide 2D/

3D noise reduction to ensure clear im-

ages under different lighting conditions.

Meanwhile, Surveon NVR3308, sup-

porting up to 64-channel 5 megapixel

recording with Linux RAID, was chosen

for its overall system reliability and sta-

bility. The large capacity with storage

expansion to iSCSI is an ideal option to

meet the hospital’s demand for 180 day

non-stop recording and longer video re-

tention period.

“With Surveon’s solutions, the per-

formance and image quality have en-

hanced our efficiency in surveillance

management. The running applications

are reliable and we are satisfied with the

solutions from Surveon,” said the Man-

aging Director for surveillance deploy-

ment in Taipei City Hospital.

“It’s an easy system to use and it

gives us complete control,” he adds, “I

would have no hesitation in recommend-

ing KeyWatcher to anyone who is seek-

ing a solution like this.”

laser-watch®GJD, one of the world’s most innovative leaders in British manufacturing and design of

professional external detector equipment, recently launched the Laser-Watch®, a long range IP connected laser surveillance sensor

The Laser-Watch® is a powerful

sensor for detecting objects and

humans with great accuracy up to 500

metres away and without the need for

lights, reflectors or separate transmit-

ters/ receivers as used by other sys-

tems. Mark Tibbenham, Managing

Director at GJD commented, “The La-

ser-Watch® uses innovative technolo-

gy to ensure utmost precision, regard-

less of lighting or weather conditions

for a wide range of sectors.”

System design

At the core of the Laser-Watch’s

design are functionality and

ease of use. With this approach, the

customer will find many advantages

including quick and easy installation,

effective outdoor surveillance for a

variety of sectors and adjustable set-

tings such as programmable detec-

tion range and twenty fully adaptable

alarm zones.

One of the major benefits is that it

can be used as a standalone unit or as

part of a security system with multiple

IP surveillance sensors and IP cam-

eras connected to a server. Another

benefit is the twenty fully adjustable

alarm zones each with their own sen-

sitivity settings and alarm actions.

Additionally, the Laser-Watch®

has an intuitive web based user inter-

face for fine tuning sensor settings

and configuring network alarms for

integration with all network based

surveillance software.

GJD is offering free practical

hands-on Laser-Watch® training to

give users a real-life experience of this

unique detector.

High performance

Designed from the ground up with

high accuracy detection in mind,

the Laser-Watch® delivers unrivalled

levels of performance as it not only de-

tects an intrusion, but it also knows the

exact position of an object or human. Its

reliability and accuracy ensure that false

alarms are kept to near zero and only

genuine detection threats are captured.

Another key benefit is pinpoint pre-

cision. For example, the sensor can be

set to react only to cars in a specific lane,

to alarm only if an object has stopped or

if a door opens, whilst all other activities

are ignored.

Wide range of applications

Typical applications include pe-

rimeter control as the sensor can

detect all objects crossing a virtual

fence, which is especially useful when

a physical fence is not desirable.

The Laser-Watch® is also perfect for

spot surveillance in an exact area, for ex-

ample an entrance to a house or along a

wall. The innovative sensor can be used

to detect if an object moves, as it can be

located anywhere with a clear line of

sight to the object.

It is also the perfect solution for

police stakeout operations and other

temporary perimeter security systems

including harbours, airports, large in-

dustrial areas and large freight termi-

nals.

Remote management device for Senstar sensors with automated alarm response

Senstar, the world’s largest manufac-

turer of perimeter intrusion detection

systems (PIDS), recently announced the

UltraLink Rugged Controller, a rugge-

dized, embedded controller for unmanned

sites that enables remote management of

Senstar security sensors and allows local

control of security functions.

Stewart Dewar, Senstar’s product

manager said, “The UltraLink Rugged

Controller provides organizations with

multiple unmanned sites a simplified

means for alarm reporting and remote

maintenance in a single device that does

not need to be installed in an environ-

mentally-controlled location.”

The UltraLink Rugged Controller

connects to a site’s Senstar sensors and

I/O devices and provides a standard Eth-

ernet/ IP-based interface for communi-

cation with the Security Management

System (SMS) using the facility’s own

WAN/ SCADA network. This provides

a common network access point from

which all configuration and calibration

can be done, and event log data can be

viewed. Maintenance visits to sites are

reduced, as is the need to access individ-

ual sensors when site visits are required.

The controller can be programmed

to activate video recording and deter-

rence devices (lights, sirens etc.) in re-

sponse to sensor alarms or diagnostic

events. Alarm response actions will oc-

cur even if network connection to the

central SMS is temporarily lost.

The top-of-the-line AXIS Q60 PTZ

Dome Network Camera Series now

includes models with features for im-

proved performance and efficiency. Four

of the new models include focus recall,

a feature providing instant focus in pre-

defined areas. The latest additions also

offer versions that include an enhanced

processor for higher analytics capacity,

as well as higher light sensitivity. The

new AXIS Q60 PTZ Dome Network

Cameras all include Axis’ Zipstream

technology that significantly reduces

bandwidth and storage requirements.

The six new models to the AXIS

Q60 PTZ Dome Network Camera Se-

ries, bring a new range of performance

and efficiency features for demanding

video surveillance applications. The

cameras, which provide exceptional

coverage of wide areas, high detail when

zooming in, and outstanding light sen-

sitivity and dynamics, are ideal for city

surveillance, airports, train stations, har-

bors, warehouses and indoor or outdoor

arenas and stadiums.

The focus recall feature, available

in AXIS Q6052/-E and AXIS Q6054/-

E, provides instant focus in predefined

areas, making it easier to use a PTZ

camera optimally in challenging light

conditions. With focus recall, there is no

need to manually focus or wait for the

autofocus to adjust, a step that can take

several seconds. Focus recall is especial-

ly beneficial in scenes with low contrast

and point-shaped light sources, for ex-

ample, strong headlights from oncoming

traffic. It is also useful in scenarios that

require a lot of manual operation using

a joystick.

The new cameras are the first cam-

eras in AXIS Q60 Series to offer Zip-

stream, a H.264 compatible compression

technology that reduces bandwidth and

storage requirements by up to 50% even

actual geographic coordinates for great-

er awareness, and add new map layers.

With map layering, operators can add or

remove details from a map in real-time

to narrow or broaden visualization of a

site. To further simplify alarm manage-

ment, Security Center 5.5 features alarm

grouping and filtering so that operators

can group alarms visually by type, state,

or priority, as well as handle entire col-

lections of alarms, such as acknowledg-

ing or forwarding an entire group.

As part of a continuous effort to

grow its ecosystem of technology part-

ners and facilitate integration to Security

Center, Genetec offers two flavors of its

Software Development Kit (SDK). The

Basic SDK is a freely-available package

used to connect to Security Center and

access configuration information, events

and alarms in real-time, as well as make

changes or add new tasks to the moni-

toring client app. A simplified online en-

rollment and acceptance process, that is

largely automated, gives users quick ac-

cess. An advanced SDK package offers

all the elements of the Basic SDK with

access to additional tools required by

more complex integrations, and is avail-

able through Genetec certified channel

partners.

Omnicast™ video management enhancements

Building on the advanced cyber-

security measures introduced in

Security Center 5.4, and the company’s

ongoing commitment to ‘Security of Se-

curity’, version 5.5 offers a ‘hardened’

protocol that protects against potential

hacking and non-authorized internal

access. When users request to access

video feeds, new authentication and au-

thorization steps are in place to protect

video data and privacy. By default, only

secured media stream requests are ac-

cepted, ensuring the app or person mak-

ing the request is authenticated to avoid

any unauthorized requests. Token-based

authentication is applied for authorizing

and authenticating RTSP video requests,

TLS encryption for securely transmit-

ting these user authentication tokens,

and RTSP over TLS for another level of

video stream encryption while in transit.

Security Center 5.5 also offers us-

ers the ability to finely manage exported

or saved content, such as video clips and

snapshots, which facilitates modifica-

tions prior to sharing inside or outside

an organization. Examples include the

blurring and masking of snapshots to

protect privacy, editing saved video clips

to remove either sensitive or less valu-

able content and then re-exporting the fi-

nal clips, adding new bookmarks to bet-

ter qualify a recorded scene, and more.

Sharing is made simpler by exporting

video to the widely used MP4 format

so as to leverage common off-the-shelf

video players and eliminate the need for

proprietary video players.

Synergis™ Access Control Enhancements

Security Center 5.5 also features new

access control capabilities to improve

organizational security, protect sensitive

information, and increase customers’

choice of access control hardware.

Through the support of the latest

firmware running on the Synergis™

Cloud Link appliance alongside Mer-

cury Security controllers, organizations

are able to extend the reach of their secu-

rity platform with AllegionSchlage AD-

300 Hardwired and AD-400 Wireless

electronic locks. Organizations can also

unify controller-based and electronic

lock-based security systems in the pro-

cess for a more inclusive approach to ac-

cess control.

Security Center 5.5 introduces

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) communications be-

tween Synergis Cloud Link appliances

enabling global IO linking and global

antipassback. Even when connectivity

to the server is unavailable, Synergis

Cloud Link appliances have the intel-

ligence to share information across the

network, like inputs triggering outputs

across appliances and by extending the

functionality of antipassback to areas

managed by multiple appliances. This

added flexibility enables users to move

away from relying on constant connec-

tion to the server that improves overall

security.

For greater protection of confiden-

tial and sensitive data, additional means

of encrypting communications have

been implemented between the Syner-

gis Cloud Link appliance and the server

along with numerous industry-leading

Genetec access control hardware part-

ners, including Mercury Security (EP

controllers) and ASSA ABLOY (IP

locks). The primary goal is to ensure

secure communications throughout a

tyco security Products introducesistar ultra se with scalable, advanced Features

‘Ultra’ and ‘Pro’ modes provide system compatibility and Future-Proofing with support for 32 readers

Tyco Security Products, part of Tyco,

introduces iSTAR Ultra SE, a spe-

cial edition iSTAR Ultra door controller

that supports up to 32 readers, is avail-

able in both wall mount and rack mount

configurations, and combines iSTAR

Ultra’s feature set with a ‘Pro mode’

that ensures flexibility and compatibility

with all Software House systems.

When used in ‘Pro mode,’ the

iSTAR Ultra SE has the same capabili-

ties as the iSTAR Pro and is compatible

with C•CURE 800/ 8000 and C•CURE

9000 Security and Event Management

Systems. In ‘Ultra mode,’ advanced en-

cryption and wireless lock support are

enabled, and wireless locks can commu-

nicate with C•CURE 9000. iSTAR Ultra

SE includes a hardened Linux embed-

ded operating system for improved se-

curity and scalability.

iSTAR Ultra SE supports both tra-

ditional hardwired access control doors

and wireless lock sets. It can manage up

to 500,000 cardholders in local mem-

ory and employs two onboard gigabit

network ports to provide redundant

communications to the host. iSTAR Ul-

tra SE also features AES 256-bit FIPS

140-2 network encryption, with custom

key management and DoS protection

to protect against potential network

threats. Dial-up communications to the

host is even available for those custom-

ers that require it.

“The calling card of iSTAR Ultra

SE is its flexibility and compatibility,”

said Rick Focke, Senior Product Man-

ager, Tyco Security Products, “Whether

your project calls for a controller with

a smaller footprint, an upgrade from an

earlier Software House controller, or

when a project does not require the ad-

ditional embedded lock power manage-

ment, the features of iSTAR

Ultra SE will fit the bill.”

iSTAR Ultra SE also

supports peer-to-peer com-

munications, which means

controllers can communi-

cate with one another with-

out needing host interven-

tion. Other capabilities of

the iSTAR Ultra SE include

simplified network installation using

DHCP and DNS, local and global anti-

passback and area control features, and

embedded intrusion zones. Custom

keypad commands are also supported,

which means events can be activated

in C•CURE from the controller itself,

and commands may be configured to

require a card presentation or PIN to

validate the command for use.

iSTAR Ultra SE’s Configuration

Utility (ICU) reduces startup time by

allowing users to view online control-

lers, change configuration parameters,

and download new firmware from a

single user interface. iSTAR Ultra SE

is available as a wall-mount unit as well

as a modular rack mount configuration,

decreasing the space requirements and

costs of installing a panel on the wall.

At this year's NAB show, JVC intro-

duced its first robotic PTZ IP vid-

eo production camera, ideal for studio

or field applications – the KY-PZ100.

In addition to its 3G-SDI and HDMI

outputs, the KY-PZ100 features JVC’s

unique IP-based communications engine

to provide streaming HD video at a va-

riety of bit rates with minimal latency.

When connected to a Wi-Fi adapter

or 3G/4G modem via USB or directly

connected to a LAN, the KY-PZ100

streams up to 1080p/50/60 video with

forward error correction (FEC). The

camera offers low latency streaming at

various bit rates and its integrated Zixi

technology delivers reliable streaming

performance with FEC and automatic

repeat request (ARQ) as well as adaptive

bit rate control.

Designed as a standalone remote

camera or as part of a multi-camera sys-

tem, the KY-PZ100 can also be used as

a conventional PTZ camera. It includes

a 1/2.8-inch CMOS sensor (2.2 million

pixels) and a 30x optical zoom lens. Its

f/1.6-4.7 maximum aperture delivers ex-

cellent low-light performance, while its

LoLux mode delivers images in dark-

ness as low as 0.01 lux. The camera also

supports on-board HD recording at up to

50Mbps to a MicroSDHC/ SDXC media

card and recorded files can be uploaded

to an external server.

“There are plenty of PTZ cameras

on the market but none have a direct host

USB connection to a 3G/4G modem or

Wi-Fi adapter,” explained Gustav Em-

rich, JVC European Product Manager,

“This unique capability allows our PTZ

camera to be placed anywhere there's a

power source and stream broadcast qual-

ity HD video. This exciting new technol-

ogy will appeal to a number of vertical

markets including broadcast, events,

government, production and sports.”

Users can control the PTZ unit us-

ing JVC’s new RM-IP100 remote con-

trol panel, a web browser, or a variety of

remote units that support VISCA proto-

col. The RM-IP100 can memorize more

than 100 preset settings and positions.

For installation versatility, the camera

is available in black (KY-PZ100B) or

white (KY-PZ100W) housings and can

be mounted upside-down, if necessary.

4Sightlaunchesworld-firstHD

ANPRimagingsystem

4Sight Imaging, the UK company

leading the world in automated num-

ber plate recognition (ANPR) imaging,

has developed new vehicle monitoring

technologies that could prevent future

terror attacks by intercepting the traf-

ficking of illegal arms across interna-

tional borders and enabling faster iden-

tification of suspect vehicles.

The launch of 4Sight’s Veracity V2

will include – as world-firsts – new high-

definition (HD) features for licence plate

colour and country recognition to enable

highly accurate monitoring and manage-

ment of real-time data in scenarios rang-

ing from counter terrorism and interna-

tional law enforcement to commercial

parking and private security.

The new features have been de-

signed to overcome limitations in exist-

ing ANPR systems by maximising the

amount of high-quality data captured

at the point of reading the licence plate.

The ability to gather more real-time in-

formation and correlate it with relevant

registration data will significantly im-

prove the effectiveness of any ANPR

application. It will also be of benefit in

Utilising 360 Vision Technology’s

extensive range of surveillance cameras,

including HD, thermal, auto-tracking

and with integrated IR/white LED il-

situations where there is a need to iden-

tify or track down suspect vehicles based

only on limited information from wit-

ness statements.

Building on Veracity’s ease-of-in-

stall, best-in-class accuracy and multi-

lane operation, notable new features

in Veracity V2 include vehicle colour;

licence plate colour; country of regis-

tration; identity of the state, region or

province where the vehicle is registered;

and direction of travel – whether the ve-

hicle is moving towards or away from

the camera or is stationary.

In different countries, different col-

oured plates can denote different clas-

sifications of vehicles and uses, for ex-

ample, taxis, military, police, hire car,

heavy goods vehicle and diplomatic

transport.

The associated performance increase

of High Speed MOS also helps to

improve ease of use further. Searches for

movements in the defined image field

are appreciably more efficient with the-

new G-Core release.

There are also improvements to the

camera range: Effective immediately, 4K

and fisheye cameras in the Geutebruck E3

series can be operated in secure HTTPS

mode using encryption. In addition, sig-

nificantly more third-party cameras are

supported. The issue of security against

manipulation of exported video images

was also a focus. When exported, a range

of formats receive an authentication key

by default, so that they can be checked for

authenticity with G-View.

The Aiphone IX system provides us-

ers with a scalable communication

and security system which offers the op-

portunity to mix and match a large num-

ber of door intercom and master stations,

to match specific project requirements.

Offering video entry security, inter-

nal communication, emergency stations

and paging, the IX system is elevated

above other intercom systems currently

available for large scale installations, by

the ease at which it can be integrated with

ONVIF compliant IP network cameras

and third-party Access Control systems.

Seamless integration: Integration

with the Intercom module of Lenel On-

Guard means that users can place calls

to door stations via the OnGuard Map

View or Status Tree. They can also ac-

cess a wide range of other features and

functions of the IX system via the On-

Guard graphical user interface. These in-

clude visibility of calls made, ended and

unanswered, paging, door release, status

reports and system health checks.

Wyatt Taylor, Sales Manager of Ai-

phone UK Ltd said: “As a standalone

system, the IX system offers a powerful,

feature-rich intercom and security system

The city’s traffic division is taking a

proactive approach to dealing with bicy-

cle traffic in the city. Previously, only ve-

hicles could trigger green traffic signals

at intersections, which meant that a cy-

clist could sit at an intersection undetect-

ed, waiting for a car to approach to acti-

vate the signal. Where possible, the city

wanted to implement bicycle detection

at key signalized intersections, without

investing in expensive detection tech-

nologies. With lots of inductive loop-

based intersections already present, the

traffic division wanted to leverage the

existing infrastructure, avoiding cutting

new loops or mounting new pole-based

detection technologies.

Using the existing advanced detector

loops and the Canoga 9004 traffic sens-

ing technology in the traffic cabinet, the

traffic department was able to see im-

mediate results, detecting and classifying

bicycles that travel on the roadway. This

information is also calculated, recorded

and stored for subsequent data retrieval

through an Ethernet-enabled connection.

And the Canoga 9004 cards are able

to detect and react to the presence of bi-

cycles with enough time to trigger the

intersection green lights before the cy-

clist has arrived. The result is less unnec-

essary stopping for cyclists and faster,

safer journeys.

Global Traffic Technologies, LLC

(GTT) is helping to make journeys

for cyclists in Minneapolis safer, smooth-

er, and faster by using existing infrastruc-

ture and GTT’s Canoga 9004 system to

detect and react to bikes at intersections.

Now the traffic detection system is

able to recognize both vehicle and bicy-

cles, and the Canoga card reacts quick-

ly enough to give cyclists a green light

without needing to slow down or wait at

the intersection; or worse yet, navigate

a red light.

Minneapolis is consistently rec-

ognized as one of the top five bicycle-

friendly cities in North America. The

city is host to the Twin Cities campus

of the University of Minnesota, as well

as many other colleges and universities,

and there are numerous high-tech start-

ups resident; all of which create a large

population of commuters using public

transportation and bicycles.
