ALBERT features an advanced, outdoor-oriented, self-learning Event Detector, developed for dynamic/outdoor scenarios, and simple to configure.  The system will automatically adapt its parameters to moving trees, rain, sea waves, light changes, shadows.  ALBERT is able to detect objects moving across virtual barriers, prohibited directions, forbidden areas, abandoned objects, objects removal, etc.  The system can perform an autonomous harmonized areas patrol and provides the best video sequence of views for a given area.  An optional on board hard disk for a distributed recording system is also available.

ALBERT's features provide high automation and intelligent information selection and delivers absolute performance for a tailor-made security system.
