Facial Recognition or FaceID, how does it work?
With the launch of the new iPhone X and latest models, Apple again sets the technological trend for the coming years, both in Smartphones and in the world of electronics. The presentation of their face recognition system, Apple calls theirs Face ID, has sparked many questions as to how it actually works. Facial recognition has been around for many years and its use in security has been very successful, albeit expensive, for controlling access to high security installations. Early devices had a relatively slow recognition time which has gradually been improved upon over the years. Facial recognition systems...

How an Italian installer implemented Ajax detectors in a new way
📍 Ajax security system, professional installer and desperate situation: how an Italian installer implemented Ajax detectors in a new way and helped nursing homes staff practice social distancing. During the quarantine, GAVILLI s.n.c. who is a professional installer shared his story of using Ajax detectors not as intended, but for the greater good.

HomeSiren raises an alarm. The care worker who arrives disarms the object via the app and provides aid. Using...
Thermographic cameras to measure body temperature
We present new thermographic cameras for body temperature measurement. The cameras are capable of analyzing human body temperature with great precision and can therefore detect cases of fever instantly. These solutions are currently being installed extensively in crowded places (airports, underground, supermarkets, hotels, transports) as a measure of containment of COVID-19. These cameras have a very advanced and powerful algorithm for high precision temperature measurement. It also incorporates artificial intelligence based on face detection. This helps to filter out any type of false alarm generated by other heat emitters (cigarettes, coffee, light bulbs, etc). TYPES OF SOLUTIONS FOR BODY TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT In most cases, temperature detection...
Ajax photo verification integrated into SBN central station monitoring software
With the update of Translator software, SBN monitoring stations are now able to process photo confirmations of Ajax security systems. Photos from MotionCam detectors will allow SBN operators all across Europe to evaluate the situation remotely and filter false alarms. Application of Ajax photo verification technologies eliminates dispatching of security guards and police officers at false alarms. As a result, monitoring centers operate more efficiently and gain trust from local police enforcements. "To make photo verification accessible to as many partner security companies as possible became an essential task for us following the MotionCam release, since seamless user experience...
