Visual Alerts expands on-premise detections for safety scenarios
Motorola Solutions has announced new on-premise AI detection capabilities for its Avigilon video security platform at Intersec Dubai, which runs from 12 to 14 January.
The update introduces Visual Alerts, a feature that allows security and operational teams to define and detect site-specific visual events across large camera networks.
These detections can include scenarios such as unauthorised vehicles near shut-off valves or blocked fire exits, with alerts generated when defined conditions are observed.
The system scans live camera feeds for those events and notifies relevant staff so incidents can be assessed and responded to.
Jehan Wickramasuriya, Senior Vice President of Security and Resilience Software at Motorola Solutions, said: “The power of our AI-enabled video and access control solutions is not just the ability to process data, but the capacity to give security teams more of their most precious resource – time.”
“We are increasing the range of what video systems can detect across different environments.”
“That includes compliance in industrial sites and safety monitoring in healthcare settings, with detection tailored to day-to-day operational conditions.”
Healthcare and industrial environments referenced
Healthcare and oil and gas environments were cited as examples where Visual Alerts can be applied to safety, security and compliance monitoring.
Use cases referenced include identifying workplace hazards, detecting patient falls and monitoring access-restricted areas.
Abdulrub Alsadeek, IT Director at Dr. Sulaiman Al Habib Medical Center in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, said: “As a 300-bed hospital that occupies almost 30,000 square metres of land, we have large numbers of people and extensive physical assets to protect.”
“During an incident, our Avigilon security platform helps teams review information, understand events across the site and take action based on verified data.”
Platform updates shown at Intersec Dubai
Motorola Solutions also referenced long-range cameras designed for use in extreme environments and operational resilience software intended to support event preparation and response.
Pedro Simoes, Corporate Vice President of Video Security and Access Control at Motorola Solutions, said: “For the industries we serve, these AI technologies are designed to support safety, security and operational efficiency without adding complexity for staff.”
“By analysing data on-premise with privacy-aware AI, users can focus on critical events and make informed decisions to protect people and places.”
The company said its video security and access control technologies are being demonstrated at Sheikh Saeed Hall, stand SA-C11, during Intersec Dubai.
