The eneo VKC-13100/IR2810 is the ideal choice for your night tasks. It always delivers clear and high-contrast pictures - even when you can't see your hand in front of your face and details are hidden in darkness. This is due, on the one hand, to the IR cut filter that retracts automatically in response to ambient lighting. On the other hand, forty 850nm LEDs are installed in the camera. These LEDs generate a maximum illumination range of 50 metres controlled by Dynamic Light Intensity Control (DIC), so you don't need to even think about extra illumination when you install the camera. The camera switches back into day mode when the sun rises in the morning and details again become visible. In day mode the VKC-13100 presents its imagery in exactly the same way usual for the human eye, in colour. By the way: the camera also operates perfectly in backlight, thanks to E-Wide Dynamic Range. Exclusive Model Water and dust cannot harm the sturdy VKC-13100/IR2810. With its protection rating of IP68 it is well prepared for all tasks out in the open. Whether in day-long heavy rain, or the hottest summer days up to 50°C - the new bullet camera always operates at full effectiveness. The compact and elegantly proportioned housing of merely 90x108x190mm deserves special attention as it is amazingly simple to install: the VKC-13100 is fixed in position by only one screw. The flexible mounting arm can be fitted to the wall or ceiling and simultaneously provides concealed cable management. The zoom and focus are adjustable from the outside without having to open the housing. This means you can start off as soon as you have opened the package when you receive your VKC-13100. All you have to do is to screw on the camera and hook up the cables. Plug and play in perfection.

Cameras are becoming more and more intelligent. In addition to a progressive increase in resolution, numerous analysis functions are becoming available to make surveillance far more reliable and also ensure the security personnel's work is much easier. The VKC-1375 Box Camera and VKCD-1375 Fixed Dome from eneo are current examples of this. Reliable sabotage detection combined with a camera cover, defocusing, spray-painting detection and change of viewing direction are highlights. Motion detection has been implemented with different functionalities and configuration options: classic motion detection is applied to the entire scene with automatic upsizing and tracking of the detected movement by PTZ. Now though, the Mine Area function is used to preselect relevant areas, such as a wire, barrier or an area where unauthorised entry is prohibited. But the eneo technology goes even further: their range of functions include face image recognition and alerting when an object is moved out of a predefined area, plus cross object counting and entrance counting. With Cross Object Counting, two vertical lines defined in the picture are used for counting objects that move past, such as vehicles driving past a building. With Entrance Counting, the camera counts the number of people who enter or leave an entrance area, such as in a supermarket. The number counted is displayed directly in the camera image for both functions. Furthermore, an alarm output contract is available for triggering further activities for all the above video analysis functions.

Then visit this link where you will see video clips that not only explain each functions, they also show the settings you need to make in the setup menu. EHLC functionality and 3D DNR noise suppression All of these analysis functions are clearly only useful when the image quality is outstanding: the VKC-1375 and VKCD-1375 have a horizontal resolution of 650 TV lines and - in addition to advanced WDR, pixel compensation and real day/night functionality - they feature the new EHLC functionality (Excessive High Light Compensation). This function shades very bright areas in the video image, such as car headlights directed at the camera. Also, very dark image areas are brightened, so that the number plate is clearly recognisable despite the darkening effect in this example. Effective noise reduction is achieved through either the 2D function or the very effective 3D-DNR. The very high resolution is due to the use of a new Sony Chip Set with a very high number of active pixels.

If you wish, you can go swimming together with the plug & play cameras in the new bullet housing. Or monitor the streets of New Delhi during the Indian monsoon. Because the very sturdy housing is protected compliant with IP68 and it can therefore also be taken along when swimming under water. But when you are not planning to go diving at the moment, then the VKC-1378, VKC-1379 and VKC-1382 by eneo are the right choice for reliable outdoor use at temperatures from -20°C to +50°C. Because everything has been prepared to make installation quick and smooth: camera modules with retractable infrared cut filter for day and night use, integrated varifocal lenses, wall bracket with concealed cabling for wall mounting, sunshield. This means for you: at the installation site unpack, bolt on, hook up the cables. Focus and zoom can then be set externally without having to unscrew the housing.For the start: four different modelsWhat are the differences among the four currently available models? The differences between the VKC-1378/IR-650 and the VKC-1378/IR-316 are limited to the focal length: whilst the focal length of the VKC-1378/IR-650 lies at 6mm to 50mm, the VKC-1378/IR-316 has a focal length of 3.5mm to 16mm. Both cameras have a horizontal resolution of 560 TV lines, light sensitivity of 0.25 lux at F1.2, and their 70 LEDs (850nm) can illuminate as far as 80 metres. The VKC-1382/IR3516 has a horizontal resolution of 600 TV lines, light sensitivity of 0.14 lux at F1.2, and their 70 LEDs (850nm) can illuminate as far as 80 metres. Things are different for the VKC-1379/IR-316: the VKC-1379B/IR-316 (unlike the other models) is a Pixim camera that ensures a wide dynamic range (WDR) of 120dB with its patented DPS technology. Its horizontal resolution lies at 570 TV lines, light sensitivity at 1.4 lux, and its 70 LEDs (850nm) have an illumination range up to 80 metres. On all models the illumination is switched on and off automatically in response to the ambient lighting. The suitable model for you is not here? We will continuously expand our product range of cameras in the bullet housing, corresponding IP versions are also currently in the works.

This autumn it’s all about the Candid, because eneo is now really pulling out all the stops with its consistent development of the successful product series. What’s new? The practical bullet cameras are now available for all three technologies: analogue, IP, HDcctv. And across all technologies and in all sizes. Whilst the Candid was previously only available in medium and large, the model series is now finally dimensionally complete with the new Candid Small. And with the introduction of the first thermal cameras, Candid is also positioned more broadly with regard to technology than ever before. A success story The Candid fulfils ultimate requirements placed on security and shape, which is proven by the growing numbers of satisfied customers impressed by the balanced, functional design of the bullet cameras. To say nothing of its technical features. Installers are also convinced as their work has been made immensely easier by the practical plug & play installation of the easy-to-handle bullet camera. No wonder, since it’s exactly the specific practical requirements what our product experts focus on so they can continue providing improvements in the future, through innovative camera technology and intelligent accessories such as the practical camera junction box AK-4. Small but with a performance to be seen: Candid Small With the new Candid Small, eneo has now rounded off the successful bullet camera series that was only available in the M and L sizes until now. Its dimensions have been reduced to a minimum allowing the smallest Candid housing to combine the advantages of the larger Medium and Large models – protection rating IP68, extended temperature range from -40°C to 50°C, integrated IR illumination, plug & play installation – with an extremely compact construction which also makes the housing a good recommendation for discrete indoor surveillance tasks. Just like the Medium and Large models, a 2 megapixel IP camera module (Full HD, 1080p) is also available for the Candid Small. Bigger selection than ever before, including thermal imaging technology Six current new arrivals, three IP and three HDcctv cameras, enrich the model series in the day/night camera product section. They are available in the three sizes small, medium and large. The S and M sizes have a motorised zoom lens with an autofocus function and a focal length of 3-9 mm; the two large models are 2-megapixel cameras with a 20x zoom lens (autofocus). In addition to these brand new cameras which are worth considering for many different types of applications due to their variable focal length, the Candid thermal cameras open up fully new fields of application. The first models are available in a Candid Medium bullet housing, as practical as it is elegant with IP67 protection and designed for fast plug & play installation. These are uncooled thermal imaging systems which operate maintenance-free over many years. That’s why they are the best economical solution wherever objects are to be detected at a maximum distance of 4 km. The new eneo cameras are available with a choice of 5 mm, 9 mm, 13 mm, 19 mm, 25 mm and 35 mm focal lengths with ranges from 330 to 4050 metres. Their thermal sensitivity lies at 50 millikelvin at an ambient temperature of 25°C. There is no technology system question with eneo thermal cameras as they have analogue as well as IP connectivity. By the way, connectivity: each module also has an external USB port. Speaking about our innovations: a Full HD version of the sturdy and versatile Callisto fixed dome is now also available.

CCTV cameras - Expert commentary

Protecting against fire and security risks is an essential aspect of life for people and across all sectors. However, there is an increasing expectation and demand on fire and security providers, in areas such as education. The securitisation of our world paired with the rapid speed of communication and news updates means that young people especially have the potential to be more aware of potential dangers and threats to their own safety and the safety of those around them. Education institutions are large and sometimes sprawling sites that present considerable fire and security challenges. From kindergarten to university Each education site brings distinct challenges, with differing facilities and specialties, as well as the need to maintain the capacity of students, teachers and lecturers to study, learn and teach at the high level expected.Each education site brings distinct challenges, with differing facilities and specialties While some schools and universities are based in urban areas with a mix of heritage and high rise buildings, others are sprawled across green open spaces. Some of these sites have specialised sporting facilities, while others may be focused on engineering or scientific study, with costly technical equipment. Kindergartens and primary schools have their own unique requirements. Parents expect the highest safety standards, while schools require safety in addition to efficient facilities management. The demographic of these institutions is predominantly young children, who are often unaware of or only just learning about fire safety and personal safety. This creates a huge vulnerability and an added onus on teachers to keep their students safe. Facial recognition at West Academy of Beijing In response to this need, Chubb China upgraded the closed-circuit television (CCTV) system for Western Academy of Beijing (WAB) focusing on elevating video content analytic features, including maximised CCTV monitoring, automatic police calling, and a smart search solution. Complementing this, a facial recognition system capable of finding the exact location of a student on campus within 30 seconds was added, aided by real-time remote gate operation. This integrated and advanced system resulted won the "High Quality Educational Technology Suppliers for School" award for the WAB project at the 2019 BEED Asia Future Oriented Construction of Universities and Schools Seminar. This award recognises outstanding solution design and project execution. Parents expect the highest safety standards, while schools require safety in addition to efficient facilities management Awareness remains important at university As students graduate from kindergarten, primary school, junior and senior school, they become more aware of fire safety, relevant dangers and how to protect themselves. Unfortunately, external dangers remain. There are particularly high stakes for university campus facilities managers The safety of students in a university environment is also critical. It is often the first time young people live away from their family home and have the independence of adulthood. For this reason, there are particularly high stakes for university campus facilities managers. In the eventuality of a fire, students could be at great risk and, beyond the immediacy of physical harm, this can have serious ramifications for the reputation of an educational institution. Integrated solutions Integrated solutions must be nimble and adapted to a range of site types including campus residences, recreational areas, open spaces and lecture theatres. Chubb Sicli recently identified and overcame these challenges through the installation of a full suite of fire safety and security equipment and services at Webster University Geneva. Established in Switzerland in 1978, Webster University Geneva is an accredited American university campus that offers programs in English to students interested in undergraduate or graduate-level education. Located in the Commune of Bellevue, just a few kilometres from Geneva's central station, the campus of Webster University Geneva includes five buildings in a park-style atmosphere. Full fire and security audit Chubb Sicli provided Webster’s fire extinguisher maintenance for over 25 years. This business relationship led to a full fire and security audit that identified the need for updates to the university’s security installation. The initial audit showed several improvements to the university’s security profile were needed.The challenge was to create and provide an effective and interconnected fire and security solution The challenge was to create and provide an effective and interconnected fire and security solution, enhancing the security of the student population and its ever-evolving needs. This included complete fire detection and intruder alarms for all five buildings, upgrades to existing CCTV systems, new video surveillance equipment and an automated fire extinguishing system in the kitchen areas. In addition to this integrated system solution, Webster University required access control for all main entrances, with the requirement that all documentation to be made available in English, because Webster is an American company. Customised solution Chubb Sicli’s quality, capability, and security expertise provided a customised solution for the unique educational establishment. Not only was the solution both tailored and integrated, the approach and planning were based on audit, fire extinguisher and emergency light maintenance, fire detection, intrusion detection, access control, video surveillance and Fire Detection. Through dedicated and integrated fire safety support, Chubb provides students and families peace of mind and security. From the moment a young child enters the education system, Chubb’s diligent and effective surveillance and fire safety systems work to prevent and protect, offering a new kind of ‘end-to-end’ service for education systems around the world.

Today, the world is connected like never before. Your watch is connected to your phone, which is connected to your tablet and so on. As we’ve begun to embrace this ‘smart’ lifestyle, what we’re really embracing is the integration of systems. Why do we connect our devices? The simplest answer is that it makes life easier. But, if that’s the case, why stop at our own personal devices? Connection, when applied to a business’ operations, is no different: it lowers effort and expedites decision making. Integrating security systems Systems integration takes the idea of connected devices and applies it to an enterprise Systems integration takes the idea of connected devices and applies it to an enterprise, bringing disparate subcomponents into a single ecosystem. This could mean adding a new, overarching system to pull and collect data from existing subsystems, or adapting an existing system to serve as a data collection hub. Regardless of the method, the purpose is to create a single, unified view. Ultimately, it’s about simplifying processes, gaining actionable insights into operations and facilitating efficient decision-making. Although integration is becoming the new norm in other areas of life, businesses often opt out of integrating security systems because of misconceptions about the time and resources required to successfully make the change. So, instead of a streamlined operation, the various security systems and devices are siloed, not communicating with each other and typically being run by different teams within an organisation. Time-intensive process When systems are not integrated, companies face a wide range of risks driven by a lack of transparency and information sharing, including actual loss of property or assets. For example, a team in charge of access control is alerted to a door being opened in the middle of the night but can’t see what exactly is taking place through video surveillance. Without integrated systems they have no way of knowing if it was a burglar, an equipment malfunction or a gust of wind. Without integration between systems and teams, the ability to quickly put the right pieces in front of decision makers is missing. Instead, the team would have to go back and manually look for footage that corresponds with the time a door was open to figure out which door it was, who opened it and what happened after, which can be a time-intensive process. Integrating access control and surveillance systems Theft and vandalism occur quickly, meaning systems and users must work faster in order to prevent it This slowed response time adds risk to the system. Theft and vandalism occur quickly, meaning systems and users must work faster in order to prevent it. Security systems can do more than communicate that theft or vandalism occurred. Properly integrated, these systems alert users of pre-incident indicators before an event happens or deter events altogether. This gives teams and decision makers more time to make effective decisions. Integrating access control and surveillance systems allows for a more proactive approach. If a door is opened when it’s not supposed to be, an integrated system enables users to quickly see what door was opened, who opened it and make a quick decision. Integrated solutions are more effective, more efficient and help drive cost-saving decisions. Ideally, companies should establish integrated solutions from the start of operations. This allows companies to anticipate problems and adjust accordingly instead of reacting after an incident has occurred. Security camera system Although starting from the beginning is the best way to ensure comprehensive security, many companies have existing security systems, requiring integration and implementation to bring them together. Typically, companies with established security systems worry about the impact to infrastructure requirements. Is additional infrastructure necessary? How and where should it be added? What financial or human resources are required? These concerns drive a mentality that the benefits gained from an integrated solution aren’t worth the costs of implementation. Thankfully, this is becoming less of a problem as security providers, like Twenty20™ Solutions, work to offer adaptable solutions. With flexible options, operators don’t worry about adding or replacing infrastructure to align with a provider’s model. This allows users to monitor camera footage and gate traffic from one system If a company has an existing security camera system, but identifies a need for access control, a modern integrated solution provider can supply the gates for access points and equip the gates and cameras with the technology to connect the two. This allows users to monitor camera footage and gate traffic from one system. This model also spares operators additional costs by using a sole vendor for supplemental needs. Overall management of security While a single, unified system is beneficial for cost saving, it can also help the overall management of security. The ability to view all operating systems in one dashboard allows security personnel to manage a site from any location, reducing the expense and effort required to manage a system. The mobile world today means security directors no longer need to be in a centralised operations center to see alerts and make decisions. This simplifies processes by allowing users to quickly see an alert, pull up a camera, delete a user or check an access log from a phone. Modern networks are secure and accessible to those with permissions, without requiring those users to be physically present. Consolidating security systems is the first step companies can take toward streamlining work, information and costs. The next step is integrating all sites, both remote and on-grid. Energy and communication technology The integration of sites and systems turns mountains of data and information into actionable intelligence Traditional methods demanded two systems: one for on-grid facilities and another for off-grid locations. With advancements in energy and communication technology, the need for multiple systems is gone. Data from remote sites can be safely and securely fed into an existing system. These remote locations may gather, distribute and manage data in a different manner than a connected system due to the cost of transmission via remote connections (i.e., cellular or satellite connection). The end result, however, is a consistent and holistic view of operations for the decision maker. The integration of sites and systems turns mountains of data and information into actionable intelligence. With connected devices monitoring occurrences at individual sites, as well as events across locations, the data tells a story that is unhindered by operational silos or physical space. Identifying patterns and trends Instead of providing 10 hours-worth of footage that may or may not be relevant, system analytics can provide users with the specific set of information they need. Incidents once discarded as ‘one-off’ events can now be analysed and data-mapped to identify patterns and trends, directing future resources to the most critical areas first. Consumers are increasingly expecting everything they need to be right where they need it – and businesses are right behind them. The current generation of security professionals are increasingly expecting the simplicity of their everyday personal tasks to be mirrored in enterprise systems, which means giving them the ability to see what matters in one place. A unified system can provide just that, a single view to help simplify processes, promote cost saving and accelerate decision making.

There’s a lot of hype around the term ‘digital transformation.’ For some, it’s the integration of digital technology into everyday tasks. For others, it’s the incorporation of innovative processes aimed at making business optimisation easier. In most cases, digital transformation will fundamentally change how an organisation operates and delivers value to its customers. And within the security realm, the age of digital transformation is most certainly upon us. Technology is already a part of our day-to-day lives, with smart devices in our homes and the ability to perform tasks at our fingertips now a reality. No longer are the cloud, Internet of Things (IoT) and smart cities foreign and distant concepts full of intrigue and promise. Enhancing business operations We’re increasingly seeing devices become smarter and better able to communicate with each other These elements are increasingly incorporated into security solutions with each passing day, allowing enterprises the chance to experience countless benefits when it comes to enhancing both safety and business operations. The term ‘connected world’ is a derivative of the digital transformation, signifying the increasing reliance that we have on connectivity, smart devices and data-driven decision-making. As we become more familiar with the advantages, flaws, expectations and best practices surrounding the connected world, we can predict what issues may arise and where the market is heading. We’re increasingly seeing devices become smarter and better able to communicate with each other through the IoT to achieve both simple goals and arduous tasks. Within our homes, we’re able to control a myriad of devices with commands (‘Hey Google...’ or ‘Alexa...’), as well as recall data directly from our mobile devices, such as receiving alerts when someone rings our doorbell, there’s movement in our front yard or when a door has been unlocked. Analytics-driven solutions The focus is now shifting to the business impacts of connectivity between physical devices and infrastructures, and digital computing and analytics-driven solutions. Within physical security, connected devices can encompass a variety of sensors gathering massive amounts of data in a given timeframe: video surveillance cameras, access control readers, fire and intrusion alarms, perimeter detection and more.As the data from each of these sensors is collected and analysed through a central platform, the idea of a connected world comes to fruition, bringing situational awareness to a new level and fostering a sense of proactivity to identifying emerging threats. The connected world, however, is not without its challenges, which means that certain considerations must be made in an effort to protect data, enhance structured networking and apply protective protocols to developing technology. Physical security systems We can expect to see the conversations regarding data privacy and security increase as well As the use of connected devices and big data continue to grow, we can expect to see the conversations regarding data privacy and security increase as well. Connectivity between devices can open up the risk of cyber vulnerabilities, but designing safeguards as technology advances will lessen these risks. The key goal is to ensure that the data organisations are using for enhancement and improvements is comprehensively protected from unauthorised access. Manufacturers and integrators must be mindful of their products' capabilities and make it easy for end users to adhere to data sharing and privacy regulations. These regulations, which greatly affect physical security systems and the way they're managed, are being implemented worldwide, such as the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). In the United States, California, Vermont and South Carolina have followed suit, and it can be expected that more countries and U.S. states develop similar guidelines in the future. Technology is already a part of our day-to-day lives, with smart devices in our homes and the ability to perform tasks at our fingertips now a reality Automatic security updates Mitigating the concerns of the ‘connected world’ extends beyond just data privacy. IoT technology is accelerating at such a pace that it can potentially create detrimental problems for which many organisations may be ill-prepared - or may not even be able to comprehend. The opportunities presented by an influx of data and the IoT, and applying these technologies to markets such as smart cities, can solve security and operational problems, but this requires staying proactive when it comes to threats and practicing the proper protection protocols. As manufacturers develop devices that will be connected on the network, integrating standard, built-in protections becomes paramount. This can take the form of continuous vulnerability testing and regular, automatic security updates. Protocols are now being developed that are designed to ensure everything is encrypted, all communications are monitored and multiple types of attacks are considered for defensive purposes to provide the best security possible. IoT-connected devices Hackers wishing to do harm will stop at nothing to break into IoT-connected devices Built-in protection mechanisms send these kinds of systems into protection mode once they are attacked by an outside source. Another way for manufacturers to deliver solutions that are protected from outside threats is through constant and consistent testing of the devices long after they are introduced to the market. Hackers wishing to do harm will stop at nothing to break into IoT-connected devices, taking every avenue to discover vulnerabilities. But a manufacturer that spends valuable resources to continue testing and retesting products will be able to identify any issues and correct them through regular software updates and fixes. ‘IoT’ has become a common term in our vocabularies and since it’s more widely understood at this point and time, it's exciting to think about the possibilities of this revolutionary concept. Providing critical insights The number of active IoT devices is expected to grow to 22 billion by 2025 — a number that is almost incomprehensible. The rise of 5G networks, artificial intelligence (AI) and self-driving cars can be seen on the horizon of the IoT. As more of these devices are developed and security protocols are developed at a similar pace, connected devices stand to benefit a variety of industries, such as smart cities. Smart cities rely on data communicated via the IoT to enhance processes and create streamlined approaches Smart cities rely on data communicated via the IoT to enhance processes and create streamlined approaches to ensuring a city is well-run and safe. For example, think of cameras situated at a busy intersection. Cameras at these locations have a variety of uses, such as investigative purposes in the event of an accident or for issuing red-light tickets to motorists. But there are so many other possible purposes for this connected device, including providing critical insights about intersection usage and traffic congestion. These insights can then be used to adjust stoplights during busy travel times or give cities valuable data that can drive infrastructure improvements. Physical security market The impact of connected devices on cities doesn’t stop at traffic improvement. The possibilities are endless; by leveraging rich, real-time information, cities can improve efficiencies across services such as transportation, water management and healthcare. However, stringent protections are needed to harden security around the networks transmitting this kind of information in an effort to mitigate the dangers of hacking and allow this technology to continuously be improved. Whether you believe we’re in the midst of a digital transformation or have already completed it, one thing is certain: businesses must begin thinking in these connectivity-driven terms sooner rather than later so they aren’t left behind. Leveraging smart, connected devices can catapult organisations into a new level of situational awareness, but adopting protections and remaining vigilant continues to be a stalwart of technological innovation within the physical security market and into the connected world.
