Innovations IndexDigital Barriers is constantly innovating, developing technologies that make a real difference to complex and critical surveillance operations. Explore the topics below to see how we are overcoming the constraints of conventional surveillance technologies and creating solutions to address the specific operational needs and environmental factors facing organisations in the defence, law enforcement, critical infrastructure, transportation and natural resources sectors. WIRELESS SURVEILLANCE Comparing TVI to Conventional Video Codecs
The TVI codec from Digital Barriers is a ground-breaking technology solution that enables fixed frame encoding and transmission of surveillance content over very low bandwidth networks, including 3G, GPRS, tactical IP radios, satellite and the internet. Find out how TVI outperforms conventional standards based approaches to wireless video streaming...more REMOTE MONITORING Rethinking UGS for Rapidly Deployable Remote Sensors
In remote surveillance situations, the transmission of information remains a key challenge in relaying remote sensor data back to monitoring stations. The key specifications of a remote surveillance system are all dependent on the capability of the underlying transmission technology. Find out how our Zimiti technology is transforming wide-area detection...more SITUATIONAL AWARENESS Presenting Different Approaches to Scene Change DetectionEmbedding greater intelligence into surveillance systems remains a priority for security as well as safety and operational monitoring objectives. However, conventional video analytics have not always lived up to expectations when deployed in the real world. Find out how our video analytics solutions use different approaches for varying situations and sensors...more Intelligent Image Enhancement and Sensor Fusion
In mission-critical situations, effective surveillance involves overcoming a range of factors to deliver enhanced situational awareness. Digital Barriers develops world-class solutions that employ advanced image processing and enhancement and intelligent sensor fusion. Find out how our proprietary and optimised techniques transform the surveillance picture...more COMPLEX SURVEILLANCE Surveillance Systems Built on Intelligent Networks and SensorsComplex surveillance systems can typically involve extensive transmission networks and often hundreds or even thousands of sensors. Maintaining this infrastructure and securing it can be a major challenge. Find out how our fibre networking solutions and video diagnosis tools can automatically identify and alert to a range of network and sensor issues...more Smarter Video Analytics for the Real WorldWhere many video analytics solutions suffer from excessively high false alarm rates, our 4D video analytics technology from Digital Barriers employs a ‘reasoning engine’ to analyse events in terms of space as well as time - correlating events with a timeline to provide context to activity within a scene and an interpretation more in line with human perception...more Making Sense of Surveillance Technology Options
We believe that effective surveillance systems are about more than technology decisions, developing surveillance systems that are highly functional, reliable, cost-effective and scalable. We do not advocate a single core network technology (Ethernet/IP or analogue) and choose instead to combine these technologies in more flexible hybrid networks...more SERVICES > INTEGRATED SURVEILLANCE Thinking Outside the Lines on Intruder Detection
The traditional approach to intruder detection is to deploy sensors along a perimeter and await an activation. However, this ‘wait and see’ approach is dependant upon the reliability of sensors, technology and monitoring personnel. Find out about an approach that is more proactive and exploits the precursors to security events that exist in every scenario...more SECTORS > TRANSPORTATION Assuring Video Transmission for Rail SafetyRail and metro systems require surveillance solutions that are designed and engineered for reliable long-term performance in safety-critical applications. The COE range of surveillance equipment from Digital Barriers has been proven in rail the past 20 years. Find out how our latest video codec has been accredited for use across the UK rail network...more
