Innovation & Technology Examples
Key Benefits of Innovation
Artificial Intelligence
Surveillance still requires human monitoring but automation and artificial intelligence changes this. These tools are now smart enough to identify anomalies that require someone’s attention, like a car driving into a no-vehicle zone or a courier leaving a package. Events like these can trigger an alert that alerts security staff involved only when it’s necessary. Recent improvements make it much more intelligent at identifying objects and discerning true threats.
Facial Recognition software
Access control has always struggled to balance efficiency with security. Facial recognition software strikes a middle ground by using cameras to scan someone’s face as they approach, compare it to a database of authorized entrants, then grant or deny access accordingly, all within milliseconds. Using this method along with other access control technologies (like a keycard) makes it extremely difficult to open a door without explicit approval.
Building Information Modelling (BIM)
Building information modelling (BIM) is among one of the top technological innovations in the construction industry, a design and 3D-model process that provides construction site planners and risk evaluators with a visual display of construction project at the different build stages. This can also be an effective tool to use to pre-plan locations of CCTV or see where to install fire alarm systems or access control systems. This digital model can help effectively keep sites secure.
Virtual Reality (VR)
Virtual reality (VR) technology has now become more accessible and affordable. The potential of VR becomes more evident when used as a tool for training. It can be used to conduct risk assessments for both worksite safety and when planning security reviews. Much like building information modelling but in a 3D setting, it can help a risk assessor identify any potential blind spots on a site.
