Herta Security Announces New Facial Recognition Solutions for the “New Normal”

Award-winning facial recognition technology company – and CCTV Surveillance partners – Herta Security have recently announced a number of new solutions aimed at enhance safety using computer vision analytics.

These solutions include:

Social Distancing – Avoiding crowds and crowded spaces will be a new normality in our daily lives, as part of social distancing to avoid the spread of the pandemic. The Herta crowd density application monitors the proximity of individuals in a crowd, by focusing on a specific frame of a chosen monitored area, and sending an alert when a high density is detected.

Occupancy Control – Another post-pandemic preventative measure is reduced venue capacity, whether it be a workplace, a cafe or a shopping mall. Every business owner will be liable for ensuring their capacity abides by local laws and restrictions. Keep your business safe with clientele under the right count.

Mask Detection – Ensuring that customers and staff operate in a safe environment is a key issue. In many countries, citizens are required to wear a mask in certain establishments. The Mask Detection module will make sure that everyone protects themselves and others around them by wearing a face mask.

Subject Identification – The Herta algorithms are able to detect and identify subjects even with large facial occlusions. Hence, they can now be used to identify people even when they are wearing a mask. Companies using BioAccess as their access control system will no longer require subjects to remove their mask in a potentially high-risk zone – such as in an airport or a busy lobby. Keep a healthy and safe environment, whilst protecting your premises at the same time.

CCTV Surveillance – The experts in deploying Facial Recognition CCTV systems

The Facial Recognition CCTV solution supplied by CCTV Surveillance dynamically compares images of individuals from incoming video streams against those stored in a predefined access control list and immediately sends alerts when a positive match occurs.

The technology yields a very good level of performance despite partial occlusions of the face, the use of glasses, scarves or caps, changes of facial expression, and moderate rotations of the face. Moreover, it does not allow users to be impersonated using photographs.

This biometric access control technology is the perfect solution to control the access to restricted security areas, especially since we’re talking about a completely automated system that requires very little interaction with the operator.

Our Facial Recognition CCTV system can be easily integrated with existing ID management products and enables administrators to easily create Whitelists/Blacklists for specific areas, while subjects can be very easily enrolled from one or more photographs.

The system fully supports runtime alarm management, is highly tunable (control based on time-frames, sequentially, etc) and even allows alarms to be exported to common formats (PDF, Excel) and remote devices (mobile, PDA, tablet, security control centre).
