Solution – Four AI surveillance & communication technologies that support complex business problems.
Regardless of size, the public and private sectors are both looking for answers to complex workplace challenges, these include addressing new ways to support safety and restructuring operating models to meet the needs of their customers and employees as social distancing measures remain in place. AI decision-making technologies are being adopted for their short and long term adaptabilities.
Traditionally decisions to converge technologies have taken months or even years but as businesses need to be prepared to pivot, timeframes have been drastically reduced. Operating alongside well-established health messages and data collection processes (as recommended by the UK Government and the WHO) AI surveillance technologies can serve as a stable, supportive aid.
COVID-19 has been a catalyst for change. Emerging technologies providing detailed analytics have been a critical tool in supporting workplace and social environments. Can they be relied on and continue to deliver value now and in the future?
Seeing which areas of your site are the most heavily trafficked, need more frequent cleaning or supportive action when teams are already stretched to capacity can be tricky. Technology and data present the opportunity to automate, supplement or replace once manual processes to drive insight and implement reactive and preventative safety protocols. For example, Motorola Solutions AI portfolio not only offers transparency for an organisation but provides an opportunity for convergence with existing DMR, PoC or body-worn camera systems.
Occupancy counting, social distancing, face mask detection analytics
Motorola Solutions’ tools combined with AI-powered video analytics collect visual footage and statistical patterns on how employees and visitors are complying with policies. When connected with your communication systems teams are supported in real-time so they can react, analyse and identify points that require more attention, addressing every situation with certainty. Data can be assessed through customisable reports in the Avigilon Cloud Services (ACS) dashboard, creating a centralised hub of visibility.
Access Control
Contactless access, control facial recognition and human body temperature thermal camera technology is a non-invasive, cost-effective and an accurate manner of screening. Linked to a communications device you can monitor & manage your responses when an abnormal reading is detected, taking action swiftly and discretely.
The Avigilon H4 Thermal Elevated Temperature Detection camera is embedded with edge-based analytics to detect faces, measure the temperature of the inner canthus region, and notify operators if individuals exhibit indications of elevated body temperature. It is designed to intelligently focus on a subject’s face, ignoring irrelevant temperature signatures from surrounding sources. The temperature reading displays prominently over the bounding box on the detected face, highlighting elevated temperature events with a red bounding box.
Occupancy Counting
Organisations can remove the staffing costs required to manually count people and support social distancing guidelines by anonymously counting people as they enter and exit your site/building, limiting the number of people inside a facility or area.
With the occupancy monitoring system, organisations can also historically review cloud-based reports for insights on whether people are adhering to its occupancy policy, and identify high traffic access points, peak times and the number of times visitors must wait to enter, which can inform measures for corrective action, further education, or optimise current health and safety efforts.
No face mask detection
The best available scientific evidence is that when used correctly, wearing a face-covering may reduce the spread of coronavirus droplets in certain circumstances, helping to protect others. As announced by the UK Government it is now mandatory to wear a face-covering before entering the majority of indoor settings.
AI-enabled video analytics accurately detect objects in the camera’s field of view, detecting when a person is not wearing a face mask and support an alarmed solution to discretely attend to a violation. Cloud-based reporting also displays face mask violations to show the times and camera location in the format of timeline histograms outlining where violations are most prevalent.
Social distancing technology
To support the efforts of government and public health guidelines, Avilgion’s social distancing software tool monitors when the distance between two or more individuals falls under the recommended threshold and for how long.
Through visual evidence and statistical pattern reports on where and when social distancing measures are not being followed, facility managers can study traffic patterns and identify hotspots. Cloud-based reporting is a crucial part of the process as it allows facility managers to take corrective action for compliance, further educate employees and/or customers, modify facility layouts, and eliminate high traffic zones.
