Description[ ]
The city of Eilat deployed the video analytics solution based on artificial intelligence by viisights for their smart city program. The software claims to be able to identify violent activity, suspicious activity, personal & crowd behaviour, perimeter protection and control, traffic monitoring, and enviromental and personal safety. The software has access to more than 300 surveillance cameras all over the city.
viisights’ behavioural analytics are integrated into the city’s extensive surveillance system, which includes over 300 cameras that are monitored at a centrally located command and control centre. viisights can monitor hundreds of cameras in real-time and, upon recognition or prediction of unusual behaviour, a command centre operator receives an immediate alert and can notify the authorities. 3
viisights, Inc., the developer of innovative behavioural recognition systems for real-time video intelligence, has recently deployed a new installation in the city of Eilat, Israel to detect, predict and analyse events of interest in real-time and alert authorities of crowding, violent/suspicious activity, traffic or crowd congestion and more. Deployment of the unique behavioural analytics solution was fast-tracked in preparation for the large number of tourists who typically flood the city during the Passover and upcoming holiday season.3
The behavioral analytics technology will be used in the city popular among tourists to provide real-time alerts of crowding, violent or suspicious activity, traffic or crowd congestion. It also detects people not wearing masks, but does not collect or store personal information. The real-time surveillance monitoring and forensics capabilities are intended to minimize liabilities and prevent incidents from escalating. 1
