Optasense Perimeter Intrusion Detection Audio Sensing and Alarm Reporting

OptaSense’s Distributed Acoustic Sensing system intelligently detects and classifies people, animals, vehicles and projectiles via fibre optic cable. Users are then able to assign descriptions to specific detection signatures and specify which events trigger an alarm.

Wavestore’s VMS can be installed on Wavestore’s own range of servers/appliances, or on a host of compatible third-party brands, providing video, data and recording management across the endcustomer’s site. OptaSense software, which runs on separate Windows™ based computers to a minimum specification, gives users full access to administration of the OptaSense system. The OptaSense server is connected over the network to Wavestore’s Metadata Engine, which is an option you must include when specifying your Wavestore VMS edition.

Wavestore’s VMS can accept the type of alarm, such as vehicle, person, animal etc. along with the specific current, start and end latitude and longitude of the alarm as well as zone information and respond in a number of ways, such as moving cameras automatically to look in the direction of the incident and/or pro-actively alerting security staff. All features of Wavestore’s events engine can be utilised and the data collected is fully searchable for post-event interrogation, making it possible to retrospectively recall video that relates to a specific scenario such as person crossing fence line, animal detected or alarm in zone 5, for example. Text information can also be overlaid onto video to give the operator enhances situational awareness.
