Digital Barriers: Innovation in Surveillance

We believe that advances in digital technologies have the potential to transform surveillance and security. Our operational practioners, researchers and solution engineers work together to develop the next generation of surveillance solutions - focusing as much on operational benefits as on solution features and technical performance. We aim to rapidly translate the outputs of technology innovation into practical solutions that are capable of transforming the surveillance capabilities of our customers - as well as providing them with simplified and more cost-effective management of their surveillance infrastructure and functions.

We focus our innovation on overcoming the key constraints and challenges associated with surveillance operations in mission-critical situations and complex environments. We would be delighted to hear how Digital Barriers could assist you in addressing your surveillance needs:

Egress and distribution of surveillance in difficult environments

We are developing advanced wireless surveillance technologies that help overcome the challenges that remote areas and hostile terrains pose for critical surveillance operations. This includes intelligent wireless networks for connecting sensors across wide-areas, as well as wireless egress of video and audio from remote surveillance locations. We combine expertise in RF, video compression and power management to optimise the end solution.

Sensor systems for specialist operations and rapid deployment

We design and engineer camera and sensor systems for use in specialist operations and applications. This includes discreet units for covert installation, as well as self-contained ruggedised surveillance units for rapid deployment operations. Our heritage in surveillance engineering and close relationships with end customers allows us to translate our detailed understanding of users into innovative product features and operating characteristics.  

Edge-intelligent processing for enhanced situational awareness

We are working on edge-intelligent surveillance solutions that embed greater intelligence into sensors, increase the degree to which sensors are self-aware and interconnected, and apply intelligence as close to the surveillance scene as possible. We believe this offers the potential to create surveillance systems that deliver more refined situational awareness and valuable intelligence in even the most hostile, remote or complex environments.

Intelligent network and sensor diagnostics for more resilient surveillance

We are embedding intelligence into surveillance networks and sensors to provide greater assurance around the security and integrity of surveillance systems. Our techniques include video diagnostics and innovative network monitoring to identify issues with sensors and the underlying transmission infrastructure. This alerts to deliberate tampering and offers advance notification of cable degredation to inform pre-emptive maintenance interventions.

Adaptive fusion and processing for a seamless operational picture

We are continually developing and refining algorithmic techniques for image enhancement and stabilisation, 3D imaging, change detection, and sensor and data fusion. This includes optimisation of processing for real-time processing as well as reduced power operation. Our research engineers are recognised world experts in the field of image processing and our deep understanding of video and associated technologies is inherent across our business.
