As presented at AIST 2014: With the magnitude of both internal and external threats on the rise, asset owners in the industrial space have begun to search for new solutions capable of protecting plant assets from challenges ranging from safety and regulatory issues, to the proactive protection of mission critical company assets. Over the past few years, we have seen some industries react to perimeter attacks, but as the attacks have become more sophisticated in nature, so has the need to take advantage of some of the newer technologies revolving around advanced video analytics to ensure the protection of organization. This presentation describes end to end asset protection solutions to ensure the integrity of the organizations ecosystem.

5. Infrared Technology
in the Electromagnetic Spectrum
A camera that sees part of the electromagnetic spectrum that is invisible to
humans -- it sees heat, NOT light. Best at detecting humans
and vehicles.
Gas Detection: 3-5 m
8-12 m
Visible light: .4 m - .7 m
Infrared: 0.7 m - 20 m

6. ● See in complete darkness
● See through obscurants (smoke,
dust, haze)
● See through particulates (fog,
rain, snow)
● See beyond the glare of a bright
light
● Be effective at all hours, in all
weather types
Advantages to Infrared
● Ability to capture temperature
signatures in addition to heat
signatures
● Provide trending analysis
● Trigger alarms when thresholds
are met
● Provide continuous vs. static flow
of information regarding
monitored activity
Thermal Thermography

7. Non-Traditional Video
Analytics: Move to edge vs. server based
• Adaptive Motion Detection
Detects and tracks objects that enter a scene and
then triggers an alarm when the objects enter a
user-defined zone or cross a trip wire.
• Camera Sabotage
Detects contrast changes in the field of view. An
alarm is triggered if the lens is obstructed with
spray paint, a cloth, or covered with a lens cap.
Any unauthorized repositioning of the camera also
triggers an alarm.
• Loitering Detection
Identifies when people or vehicles remain in a
defined zone longer than the user-defined time
allows.
• Object Counting
Counts the number of objects that enter a defined
zone or cross a trip wire.
• Stopped Vehicle
Detects vehicles stopped near a sensitive area
longer than the user-defined time allows
• Absolute temperature
Measures the actual temperature of an object
and alarms when the object exceeds, or drops
below a temperature set in the analytic
• Relative temperature
Measures the temperature of 2 or more
objects and alarms when difference between
the temperatures of objects exceeds the
temperature set in the analytic.
• Self Reference
Takes the initial temperature of an object
during set up and alarms when the object’s
self referenced temperature exceeds a
specified temperature delta.
Thermal Thermography

8. Video Only Video and Data Combined
Video and Data Separate Data Only
• Think data with video vs. video with data
Non-Traditional Video

9. Non-Traditional Video
• Ability to utilize data to monitor mission
critical systems
Record Video and/or Data
Set and Monitor Alarms
Provide Trending Reports

10. • Third Party Integration
• VMS: Video Management Systems
• SCADA: Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition
• PLC: Programmable Logic Controllers
• HMI: Human Machine Interface

● 360 degree technology
● Ability to operate in extreme
temperatures
● Integrated wipers
● Integrated positioning systems that
meet stringent explosion proof
requirements
● Thermal and Thermography

• Ability to monitor
preheating of car to
ensure duration and
energy consumption is
sufficient to prevent
hardening
Flare Detection
• Detect and set alarms
for atmospheric gas
leaks
Preventative/Predictive
Maintenance
• Real time trending

infrastructure
• Ability to set alarms
when certain thresholds
or parameters are
reached
Heat signature? Temperature signature?

13. ● Video is being viewed at with a new set of lenses that
encompass both video for security (traditional), and video
for operational needs (non traditional) allowing for end to
end asset protection
● As data takes center stage, operational video is now seen
as a key component in data driven systems that utilize
SCADA, HMI, PLC and VMS interfaces to provide
continuous vs. static monitoring of mission critical systems
● Advances in operational video show strong ROI and TCO in
the areas of Safety, Regulations, Preventative Maintenance
and Process Optimization
