Gigapixel Analytics 360° Security Camera
  • A single 360 Security Camera covers up to the size of 4 Olympic stadiums. More coverage from fewer cameras.
  • Automatically detect and follow incidents. More close-up video evidence.
  • Covering targeted areas or a full 360 panorama, with reliable 24/7 operation and close-up and long-distance surveillance accuracy.
  • The best outdoor PTZ camera: a long-term video surveillance deterrent.
  • More convictions using extended dual evidence: close-up view and wide contextual view of each incident. The strongest remote site security deterrent.

Industry standard and independently endorsed

The surveillance industry standard for automated security and situational awareness

This 360 Security Camera is also a multitasking camera with many video analytics systems operating together for several applications. It is supported as plug-and-play with modular hardware, meets any remote site’s security coverage and surveillance requirements, and solves the many problems with standalone security systems, manned surveillance services and manned guarding patrols. A Metropolitan Police surveillance officer’s report supports this claim. To match the coverage of just 1 Viseum 360 Security Camera, it would take:

  • 6 constantly manned next best PTZ cameras, or
  • 10 of the industry’s latest panoramic megapixel cameras, or
  • 200 standard fixed camera installations.

This does not take into account the extreme costs of installation and monitoring of inferior systems. Viseum will deliver more results automatically, costing significantly less to buy, with running costs at least 6 times lower each year.

LEVEL 1TECHNOLOGY INTRODUCTION PROGRAMME

The only 360 Security Camera to automatically detect multiple incidents from short range to long range, in all directions at the same time. One Viseum camera does the work of 6 constantly manned cameras, a Metropolitan Police surveillance officer reported. See why it is the most powerful surveillance camera. It works in all directions at the same time, controlling a moving PTZ Camera to follow the required action and confirm incidents, and reporting incidents for rapid response and investigations. It also records high-quality video of the lead-up to the incident, what happened after it and who else witnessed it.

  • Captures 100 times more people and vehicles.
  • Over 25 x more usable video evidence.
  • Solves over 15 x more incidents.

Today’s future-proof 360 security camera

Our intelligent security solutions also use this proven Intelligent 360 Security Camera. This uses multiple wide contextual view cameras and one moving Pan Tilt Zoom camera. They sit in a single unit. Advanced video analytics software then detects, zooms into and follows every suspect. It works wherever they enter, circulate or leave. It has modular hardware to cover targeted areas and up to a full 360 degrees.

Viseum intelligent 360 Security camera

  • Because the Viseum IMC is seen operating automatically, it protects everywhere. This shows criminals that surveillance experts watch the entire site constantly.
  • The Metropolitan Police said, “This is our best crime deterrent.” They described it as a virtual gigapixel camera, a virtual operator and a virtual guard.
  • The Viseum 360 Camera makes remote monitoring a highly efficient option. Not just a necessary cost.

Why governments choose this 360 security camera

We built ours to find the incident, zoom into it and record the evidence before anyone asks it to. One mast then does the job that once needed a cluster of cameras and an operator watching each one.

Government buyers and their technology advisors return to the same three questions. Firstly, will recorded crime actually fall on this street? Secondly, can we prove that fall to auditors and to residents? Thirdly, what will the system cost us to run every year for the next decade?

How the 360 security camera cuts operating cost

Staffing dominates the whole-life cost of any surveillance programme. A government has to fund operators, network links and maintenance long after the capital budget closes. Because our camera raises the alarm on its own, a small team can supervise a very large district. Each unit replaces several fixed cameras, so the civil works, the cabling and the annual maintenance all shrink at the same time.

Meanwhile the camera protects money you have already spent. Our engineers can upgrade the PTZ cameras and the Video Management System a customer already owns. A project rarely has to start again from nothing.

Proving the result to auditors

Every automatic detection carries a timestamp, and every operator action carries one too. A programme manager can report exactly how many incidents the system caught and how quickly officers reached the scene. The monthly trend shows whether an early fall in crime actually held up across a full year.

Field testing

A 360 security camera only earns its place if it removes work from a control room. Every report is built to stand up to scrutiny. This approach follows established practice in closed-circuit television design.

Where this 360 security camera fits best

Some locations defeat conventional surveillance completely. For example, wide open parks, long approach roads, transport interchanges and town centres all spread activity across angles that a single fixed camera cannot hold. Construction compounds and temporary sites change week by week. A camera that watches every direction at once, and decides for itself where to look closely, solves a problem that adding more fixed cameras never quite solves.

Our engineers survey each position before anything is ordered. You see the true coverage from every proposed mast, including the gaps. We test power and communications at each point.

Remote monitoring with the Viseum IMC

The Viseum IMC (Intelligent Moving Camera) is the only Outdoor PTZ Camera to make remote monitoring a highly efficient option. When remote sites are broken into, high-quality close-up video of the crime must be collected.

Today’s PTZ cameras are unlikely to capture good image quality of anything. PTZ cameras must be moved and watched by trained people. This makes these PTZ cameras’ zoom functionality and motion detection useless.

Looking for video evidence is often a waste of time. The crime was not close to the PTZ camera. If the criminal is caught, they cannot be convicted.

Criminals watching Viseum’s PTZ Camera following them do not know it is automated. Viseum PTZ Cameras deliver more results automatically than many standard cameras with resident security staff constantly on alert.

Best Outdoor PTZ Camera deployment options

  • Does the remote monitored site have standard street lighting? Choose the Megapixel HD Panoramic Security Camera.
  • Does the remote site have low-light challenges? Choose the standard Viseum 360 Security Camera.

Questions governments ask about the 360 security camera

Firstly, does it need an operator? No. The camera detects and records on its own, and it calls a human only once it has something worth showing. Secondly, does it work at night? Yes, because the thermal and low-light options detect movement long before a colour camera could. Thirdly, will it fit our existing control room? Yes, because the unit speaks open standards rather than a private protocol.

Fourthly, how long does installation take? Usually a single day per mast once power and communications are in place. Meanwhile a Rapid Deployment trailer can prove the position first, so you commit capital only where the evidence supports it. Finally, who supports it afterwards? Our own engineers do, because every Viseum Product Solution is designed by Viseum and made in Great Britain under licence.

360 cameras and moving cameras compared

What is a 360 degree surveillance camera?

A camera that sees in every direction at once. The Viseum 360 Security Camera adds a moving camera in the same unit, which zooms in and follows each incident it detects.

Why is a moving camera on its own not enough?

A standard PTZ camera can only see a maximum of 60 degrees at any one time and is usually pointing the wrong way when a crime happens. The Viseum camera watches all directions and moves only to follow what it has found.
