Subway Video Surveillance With Xeoma
Public transport in a big city is unimaginable without a subway system. Every day, millions of people commute by subway trains. Anything can go wrong, (and the possibilities for that are endless), but very few people consider the means of protection in a potentially dangerous situation.
As the saying goes, a danger foreseen is half-avoided. The very first step to ensure subway security should be to set up a sophisticated surveillance system. Xeoma’s wide range of modules and additional features allows you to create the most comfortable transport environment, while the simple and easily comprehensible interface significantly simplifies the monitoring process. You can even create your own operation chains for better problem tracking and solving.
Why Xeoma?
– Support of 99% of all camera brands and types;
– Unlimited number of cameras per server (depends on the license);
– Steady and continuous surveillance;
– Immediate reaction to offenses and other kinds of misconduct;
– Autonomous response to emergencies: the program will notify you or trigger an alarm on its own;
– Flexibility and easy setups;
– Additional modules – enhance your system with professional AI algorithms and 100+ video analytics!
This list can go on and on – Xeoma’s usability is not limited to the features stated above. Let us explain in more detail how exactly Xeoma can be integrated into a subway video surveillance system.
Safety always comes first
“Motion Detector” is a universal Xeoma module with endless application options. It can be used to track movement in restricted areas, react to a specific type or intensity of motion, and save all detection data in a separate report.
“Cross-Line Detector” works best with “Motion Detector”. You can use this module to mark a line on the platform, and the system will automatically react if that line is crossed, either accidentally or intentionally.
“Slip and Fall Detector” will be extremely helpful when dealing with potential injuries. No fall will go unnoticed, be it from a platform, an escalator, or on a slippery floor. This module can even contact an ambulance by itself.
“Face Recognition” is a must when dealing with masses of people. The built-in Xeoma recognizer can be trained to detect suspicious individuals in any way convenient for you. Add pictures of known offenders to the database, or do the opposite and teach Xeoma to only recognize the staff so that impostors are exposed on the spot. You can even search by photo to locate recordings with specific people in your archives!
A great addition to the “Face Recognition” module would be “Emotion Recognition”. Tracking people’s mood is as important as their activity – facial expressions often speak more loudly than actions.
“Crowd Detector” is another must-have for every transport system. Not only can large crowds be hazardous to people’s health, they are also notable indicators of an increase in demand for potential schedule changes.
If a passer-by left something behind, Xeoma has a solution for this too. “Detector of Abandoned Objects” is designed to give a timely response to such an instance: not only will it help prevent the tragic consequences of terrorism, it is also a way to notify the Lost and Found if the object in question really was forgotten by its owner.
The “Loitering Detector” module is an extremely useful tool for monitoring off-limits areas. Even if an offender hides his or her face, the system will immediately alert you as soon as the mysterious stranger exceeds the permissible stay you’ve selected for the location.
“Sound Events Detector” is a unique module designed to recognize specific sounds, be it screaming, crying, sirens, or gunshots. It is indispensable both in preventing conflicts or cases of terrorism, and in more ordinary situations. Has someone shattered the lights? Is there a lost child calling for help? Learn of these incidents, and many others, in just a few seconds!
Of course, fire safety should always be a concern. Xeoma’s “Smoke Detector” will greatly complement any pre-installed sensors to immediately locate the source and ensure the most organized response should a fire break out.
Everything is automated for your convenience
Being easy to use and having an intuitive interface are what makes Xeoma so great. You can adjust the program to your liking as much as you want!
Xeoma will notify you on its own in case of a potentially dangerous event. The “Sending Email”, “SMS Sending”, “Mobile Notifications” modules will promptly inform all employees about any emergency.
With Xeoma, you can have access to your cameras anywhere and anytime. You will be able to view video streams from any device. If your video surveillance system consists of dozens and even hundreds of cameras, combine all available servers with the “Multi-server” mode and watch all your feeds simultaneously so as not to miss a single detail!
Xeoma can activate your security system by itself. If the devices you are using support the HTTP protocol, connect them to Xeoma using the “HTTP Request Sender” module. Alarms, electronic locks and other automated appliances will now work even more efficiently.
Xeoma supports PTZ. Setting up automated surveillance of large areas is no longer a problem with Xeoma. Choose the time and maximum steps, or arrange entire guard tours so that the camera “goes round” the premises without your input. By the way, Xeoma also supports eMap! With interactive maps, it becomes even easier to cover the entire territory with no loss in efficiency.
Xeoma’s archive system is flexible. Dual-streaming, built-in archive search, export of desired video segments in a format of your choice, and so much more – Xeoma provides a generous number of useful features for working with your footage.
As you can see, Xeoma makes maintaining the security system of subway stations remarkably more convenient and accessible.
