Shopping Center Security
Shopping malls and large retail venues are becoming more and more popular for their convenience, central location, and location. Unfortunately, shopping malls and venues are also one of the most prone areas for physical, natural, chemical, or biological threats..
The SpartaMatrix™ AvatarSM System offers assurance that shopping venues have top security. The AvatarSM System is an immediate public notification system which augments existing security through a modular plug-and-play design suitable to any shopping center layout, regardless of lighting. It is robust enough to address any manner of physical, natural, chemical or biological emergency or threat. The Australian award winning technology driving the AvatarSM System has been adapted from other successful SpartaMatrix™ intermodal cargo security projects.
Innovative real-time tracking technology highlights suspicious behavior and allows personnel to quickly focus their attention when viewing multiple monitors at a glance. By recognizing specific behaviors, the AvatarSM system can quickly identify possible threats and alert personnel to take appropriate action.. The SpartaMatrix™ AvatarSM System is a full-featured solution which provides security convergence, effective risk management, and global marketing initiative.
Avatar Unit
AvatarSM Units are a communications portal to campus information and security. An industrialized version of the innovative 360° LED video display, outdoor and indoor models are available. A range of different sizes are available, each providing 360° viewing for maximum visibility. A ceiling mounted version is also available for crowded public seating areas.
Discrete camera placement mounted on top of the unit can provide close proximity video coverage of busy public spaces while maintaining a friendly campus atmosphere.
AvatarSM can broadcast immediate, time-sensitive warnings to the entire campus. Public notification regarding physical, natural, chemical or biological incident can be broadcast through the early-warning system. Units can be upgraded to include voice activation and speech recognition to assist the blind or disabled.
Holistic Security Convergence
Existing campus security systems are typically comprised of disparate controls, each requiring additional personnel hours to monitor and manage. Security Convergence provides effective incident response and management utilizing clear public notification alerts.
AvatarSM converges security and information services with existing access controls and on-campus databases, providing comprehensive security convergence. Through integration with student databases, notifications can be sent out regarding all manner of activity including class cancellation or emergency notification. AvatarSM databases are open source allowing for integration with third-party service providers.
SpartaMatrix™ will undertake a thorough analysis of current best practices including items such as visitor sign on schemes. A third-party security risk assessment will be conducted through security audit specialists (I.E Vincent’s Forensics). Recommendations will be presented for approval and implementation. AvatarSM manages the integration of all existing physical security controls through the Mitigation and Prevention Centre technology.
AvatarSM - Campus Security and Information Platform
Video Analytics
Innovative real-time tracking technology highlights suspicious behavior and allows personnel to quickly focus their attention when viewing multiple monitors at a glance.
At each campus entry point, sensors will be placed to record the date and time of transit. Additional vicinity checkpoints will record movements on campus. This smart technology facilitates real-time monitoring, digital mapping, and intelligent and effective incident response.
Organic software algorithms record and analyze the movement patterns of each individual on campus. Recent movement history is overlaid on screen and shown by means of a white line. Information is analyzed and displayed in real-time and with a colored dot shown above the person.
Assisted Archive Review
Searchable surveillance, video analytics, digital archives; AvatarSM manages all operations of your digital information. Sophisticated video analytics highlight periods of activity allowing for intuitive navigation through hours of surveillance footage.
The AvatarSM Platform includes secure digital archiving of all video footage. Data is stored securely with appropriate access controls and encryption. It can be erase at pre-set intervals once information is outdated or determined useless.
