What You Need To Know About Artificial Intelligence In Security Cameras

September 4, 2023 · Advantage Technology · IT Infrastructure

Artificial intelligence can be used in a range of security cameras, including infrared & thermal cameras used with indoor & outdoor settings.

ai security camera conceptAs artificial intelligence (AI) continues to rapidly evolve, it is penetrating all aspects of society. While many people associate AI with computing, it is also being used to improve the capabilities of security measures.

Here is a look at how artificial intelligence is making waves in the security camera industry.

Identifying Patterns

One of the biggest benefits of using artificial intelligence in video surveillance is its ability to analyze audio and visual footage to identify in real time, not only individuals, objects and vehicles, but also behaviors that could indicate an impending security breach.

By automatically recognizing patterns and situations that may require a security response, many problems can be avoided. It is not only useful for detecting security incidents such as muggings; it can also identify emergencies. For example, aid can be rendered immediately when the system detects that an individual has fainted.

Preventing & Minimizing Crimes In Real Time

In the past, video surveillance was more of a reactive technology, used largely for reviewing incidents after they took place and the damage was already done. More modern cameras can be used for real-time detection, requiring manual monitoring by trained professionals around the clock who must study cues carefully before taking action.

However, AI video analytics allow a range of potential incidents to be detected and acted upon immediately. AI security cameras are one of the most effective ways of identifying potential crimes against individuals and property allowing security forces to act swiftly. This ability to react quickly prevents or reduces related consequences, minimizing the damage.

Locating People & Vehicles Automatically

Another useful capability of AI in surveillance cameras is its ability to locate people and vehicles automatically. Not only can this be used to help detect a vehicle that was stolen or involved in criminal activity, but it can also help to find people who have perpetrated a crime or, missing persons.

The image comparison capabilities of AI cameras make them useful for security even in the most crowded locations, such as airports or busy shopping malls.

Distinguishing False Alarms From Real Emergencies

a survillence cameraAI security cameras are very effective in distinguishing a false alarm from an actual emergency. This helps security teams to avoid wasting time and resources, such as sending personnel to a particular location where there is no true threat.

For example, AI cameras can detect whether an incident is caused by the presence of a small animal or if it is an actual unauthorized human presence.

Reducing Overall Security Costs

Although there is an upfront investment to equip a site with AI security cameras, these devices provide analysis without the intervention of employees. This allows sites to reduce their staffing needs and expenses as the camera will automatically perform the monitoring, analysis, and alerts.

Capacity Measurement Capabilities

Another useful quality of AI security cameras is their ability to keep track of the number of people who are present at a site at any particular moment. This can help establishments to comply with any applicable capacity limits, such as fire capacity limits or temporary measures that are put in place for security purposes.

Moreover, these systems can provide beneficial information about the number of people visiting a site each day; trends in attendance can be used to predict staffing needs and make important business decisions.

Improve Access Control

AI used in security cameras improves the effectiveness of access control systems. For example, as a result of the camera’s ability for facial recognition, it can be used to provide automated access to a specific area based simply on the requestor’s presence at the point of access.

Improve Other Technological Tools

While cameras equipped with artificial intelligence are undoubtedly valuable tools for security, these devices can also be used to support and improve other types of technological tools. For example, they can be integrated with fire detection systems, illumination systems and traffic management systems to improve their effectiveness.

AI Technology Adapts & Improves Over Time

smart security camera conceptAI security cameras can learn and adapt to different situations. As they collect more data their machine learning algorithms allow them to constantly improve their accuracy and refine their performance.

In turn, they become better at identifying possible threats while decreasing false alarms. They can also learn how to identify new types of threats as they emerge, enabling them to keep up with the latest techniques being used to breach security measures.
