Urban surveillance and situational awareness

Smartmatic delivers a comprehensive suite of solutions for urban video surveillance that span the capture, transmission, storage and processing in real time of digital video and audio signals coming from cameras, microphones and other security sensors and devices strategically deployed throughout extensive urban areas. The applications are as diverse as the scenarios to which they can be applied: from continuous monitoring of urban areas, surveillance of roads and highways, monitoring of "hot spots" or crime-sensitive zones, and even surveillance of critical areas and infrastructure, such as government buildings, ports and airports, among others.

Our advanced technology extends the reach of security agencies to large geographical areas, and makes use of innovative algorithms to automatically detect exceptional situations that require human supervision and that may even require a response or mitigation operation.

Some highlights include:

  • Remote surveillance in real time using both video and audio sensors. Consolidation of all audiovisual material in very-large scale content management systems.
  • Remote control and configuration of cameras and other devices.
  • Automatic video analysis: Advanced algorithms can be applied either centrally or in a distributed fashion to detect emergency situations, without requiring human interaction.
  • Forensic analysis tools help detect incident patterns in stored audiovisual material or in real time, enabling investigation teams to work faster and more effectively.

¿What sets us apart?

  1. Biometric processing: Our surveillance solutions comprise a facial recognition component that can help detect wanted individuals or anticipate dangerous situations in real time, and can link back to our comprehensive platform for identity management within public safety scenarios.
  2. Extensive support and leverage of existing infrastructure: If cameras and sensors are already deployed in the field, our solutions can incorporate them and even add intelligence to them, so no prior investment is lost.
