You may have surveillance cameras for your commercial property, but these cameras cannot proactively stop threats while they are in progress. Many owners and administrators find a more effective loss prevention solution to be adaptive analytics. Video analytics pick up where traditional cameras leave off. At American Alarm Systems, we offer adaptive analytics through VideoIQ, a self-calibrating IP video analytics system – the only 100% self-calibrating adaptive analytics system available today.

More than Motion Detection

With VideoIQ, you can rest assured your IP cameras will find what matters and ignore what doesn’t, so you can greatly reduce the risk of false alarms. The system is intelligent, so it identifies over 200,000 examples of people, cars, trucks and boats in different weather conditions from various angles of view. It even knows the difference between people and animals, so you can kiss those costly alarm activations set off by stray dogs goodbye. Plus, VideoIQ continues to fine tune its calibration over the life of the camera so it will know the difference between people and moving objects that are authorized to be at your business – and which ones are a potential security threat.

Proactive Response to Threats, with No False Alarms

What happens when the alarm signal is triggered? A live video clip is sent to central station, where our agents determine the appropriate response to the situation. It may be to dispatch police, it may be to contact your management, or it may be to ignore and store the video on the account because the occupants are not a threat. For example, if the presence of your nighttime cleaning crew triggers a signal, our agents can view the video feed, identify the subjects in the video as your cleaning staff, and choose to store the video on your account. This saves you money on false alarm fees, again and again over time.

Intercepting via Live Video Communication

Finally, Video IQ also features a two-way voice, live video feed component. When an intruder breaks in, it alerts central station instantly. Our agent reacts to the video alarm, and then talks down to the intruder via a two-way voice live video feed, in order to intercept and inform the criminal that the police are on their way. That means VideoIQ can also save you money on a night guard service, while protecting your valuable inventory and heightening your overall loss prevention efforts.
