Physical Access Control Takes on a New Direction

This seminar touches on the impact of suicide when committed on the rail network and concentrates on how network video might contribute to its prevention. It describes current suicide countermeasures and details the size of the challenge which the rail industry faces. This paper explains how IP network video can support existing measures in order to provide an effective overall suicide prevention solution.

This seminar demonstrates how industry standard features within IP surveillance cameras can reduce the power requirements associated with a security surveillance system.

An appraisal of the most commonly used video compression techniques in network video (IP). Why compression is needed, what are the most common methods used and what impact does it have has on bandwidth, storage and system design, Mjpeg, mpeg4 and h.264 are covered and the benefits and limitations of each discussed.

What is the most important element when designing a network video solution? This presentation covers image usability and looks at the design considerations when building a network video solution.

This presentation covers the benefits and design considerations of megapixel technology. Examine the difference between hd and hdtv, including example applications and where the technology can be implemented to not only improve image quality but also to reduce costs.

A realistic appraisal of what is achievable with intelligent video. This presentation moves away from the specification sheet and focuses on the actual design considerations when putting together an intelligent video solution. Topics covered include the impact of scene, environment and application challenges as well as managing your customers expectations. This session also examines the advantages and disadvantages of edge, central and hybrid processing.

This seminar demonstrates that the security sector is a diverse market place, and that whilst having similar solutions for similar applications three is considerable difference in their operational issues and as such require solutions that meet their individual industry drivers.

An exploration of how network video can meet the security, fraud and merchandising challenges found in the retail sector.

An introductory seminar focusing on the key technical differences and benefits that network video (IP) offers over traditional analogue CCTV. Features such as power over Ethernet, progressive scan and megapixel technology are covered amongst others, along with an exploration of the commercial benefits attained by using an IP solution.

Privacy by design is an approach to projects that promotes privacy and data protection compliance from the start. Unfortunately these issues are often bolted on as an after-thought or ignored altogether. Security systems contain Personal Identifiable Information (PII). Understand these systems and your considerations.

As the business demands and expectation of a traditional access control change, understand the market trends in the Physical Access Control Security (PACS) market. Leverage developments in new practises and the growing adoption of open solutions using IP connectivity and a best of breed approach to physical access control systems security. At the end of the CPD the viewer should be better informed to consider technical options and specify PACS solutions which are scalable from small through to Enterprise PACS performance and offer life use/cost considerations which may not have been available in traditional, proprietary access control solutions.

We will look to explore the concepts of Smarter Safer cities and why there is such a buzz around this topics, You will have seen from the huge levels of publicity, that both governments in the UK and around the world are looking to invest in Cities to make them more efficient and at the same time enhancing the experience of citizens that live there and work there, So is this achievable based on the technologies today and if so, what should the considerations be to address the future of Smart Cities?

Network audio is audio which is transferred using a network cable (Ethernet/PoE) to a network speaker. The audio signal is digital all the way, from source to the speaker. This can be compared to analogue audio which is transferred over analogue audio cables. As Smart building embrace a connect infrastructure, why should site audio systems be any different?

Digital and physical security are not separate systems. In today's automated world and the ever increasing visibility of the Internet of Things (IoT), it is important for Information and physical security professionals to work together to protect physical infrastructure. This seminar will increase awareness of the Cyber Security risks when specifying a physical security system. What are the considerations and what measures should be taken to mitigate potential risks.
