Security is important in public places such as parking lots and streets. In recent years, there has been an increasing number of cases where the effectiveness of accident prevention has been significantly enhanced through the use of signaling devices in conjunction with security cameras. This article introduces solutions that combines Panasonic's security camera "iPRO AI Camera" and PATLITE's signaling devices to improve security and accident prevention effectiveness when used in offices, factories, and residences.

What is "iPRO AI Camera"?
A high-performance security camera that pursues high image quality, high compression, data security, high reliability, and data analysis. Equipped with AI, the distinctive feature is that the camera plays the role of eyes and brain to process information. Various models can be selected according to the area and application.

In a security system, in addition to event detection and information analysis using security cameras, "notification" is also essential. Therefore, the collaboration between the two companies using the signal lights of PATLITE, which leads the industry as a global signaling equipment manufacturer, was realized. Here are three specific scenarios that demonstrate practical applications.

Solution 1: Security and hazard prevention in factories and offices

▲ iPRO AI Camera installed near the entrance of the company for anomaly detection

Equipment used : Network monitoring signal tower NHV series + iPRO AI Camera

The network control signal light NHV and the security camera "iPRO AI Camera" are used together to detect events that may lead to accidents or crimes, and to prevent danger before it occurs.

Examples of applications
✔ Detecting intruders in restricted areas
The camera detects people, sends a signal to the signal light NHV, and a red lamp is displayed to alert.

✔ Detecting traffic violation
Traffic violations such as entering prohibited parking areas and driving in the wrong way are detected by the camera's Vehicle Detection function, sends a signal to the signal light NHV, and a yellow lamp is displayed to alert.

✔ Detecting the type of vehicle
When a truck enters the area, sends a signal to the signal light NHV, and the yellow and green lights flash simultaneously to alert. The signal is sent to security guards and relevant departments.

✔ Detecting opening/closing emergency exits
If an emergency exit is left open, the camera recognizes the situation, sends a signal to the NHV, and the red and yellow lights flash simultaneously to alert. Security guards can quickly check and solve the problem.

✔ Green lamp indicates when the server is operating
✔ MP3 sound playback alarm

Solution 2: Traffic accident prevention

▲ iPRO AI Camera and signal light RFV installed near the entrance of Panasonic

Equipment used: Revolving light RFV + iPRO AI Camera
The RFV, a revolving light featuring clear colors and brightness, is ideal for alerting and preventing traffic accidents in combination with the “iPRO AI Camera”.

Examples of applications
✔ Alerts when a vehicle rushes out or driving in the wrong way
The camera's Vehicle Detection function detects the event, sends a signal to the RFV to alert with a lamp. It is effective for notifying passers-by of the situation in an easy-to-understand manner.

✔ Alerting road crossers
When there is a pedestrian in a crosswalk, the camera detects any rushing out of a vehicle and sends a signal to the RFV to alert with a lamp. Useful for reducing traffic accidents.

Solution 3: Indoor safety enhancement

▲ iPRO AI Camera and MP3 playback alarm BSV type installed indoors

Equipment used: BSV Voice Annunciator + iPRO AI Camera


Examples of applications
✔ Indoor safety alarm when an obstacle to the fire extinguisher is detected
The camera detects a box or cart in front of the fire extinguisher and sends a signal to BSV; MP3 playback alert.

Maximize safety by combining the analysis by Panasonic security cameras with the alert function of PATLITE signal lights

The majority of signaling devices and security cameras in offices, factories and residences are designed to prevent accidents. This collaboration between the two companies complemented the functions in the areas of excellence, such as analysis = Panasonic and alerting = PATLITE has resulted in a solution that maximizes accident prevention and security.

"We believe that this collaborative solution will help customers realize the effectiveness of using both systems together, and it can be customized according to the customer's location and application.
