The Security Of Everything

System Features

24 Hour Power Management
Security is a "twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week duty". To provide our products with continuous power and uninterrupted security, our products are equipped with power management systems that offer power backups and integrated batteries.

 

3rd Party Integration
In the world of security, we recognize that no one can 'do it alone'. Our systems provide customers the ability to integrate 3rd party components for truly customized and maximized solutions.

 

Area Illumination
Ground illumination capability can be a priceless asset. We offer a spotlight module that can be activated when ground illumination is needed. The compact light features highly efficient LEDs that provide powerful and efficient illumination.

 

Audio Analytics
Bi-directional audio enables the SPS to both transmit audio information and receive audio information gathered by the system. The SPS utilizes powerful analytics to monitor audio feeds for threat indicators, security breaches, or active threat scenarios such as aggressive speech, glassbreak, and gunshot detection, and providing immediate alerts to the command center and first responders. 

 

Audio / Alarm Broadcast
The audio module provides a way to remotely deliver announcements to the surveillance field. This module can also be used to provide sirens or alerts to notify bystanders of impending threats or dangers. The speaker has an efficient, compact design, yet offers premium sound quality with heat-resistant capabilities to ensure it can continue operating and communicating important messages through volatile, high-heat environments.

 

Camouflage
As a way to further protect the internal components of our carbon fiber products as well as provide discrete surveillance options, four standard camouflage film options - arctic, forest, marine, and desert - are offered for complete environmental integration, with additional patterns available upon request. The camouflage film helps to extend the life of the product by protecting the exterior, reflecting heat, and providing insulation in cooler environments.

 

Carbon Fiber
Among its many advantages, carbon fiber has very high strength to weight and stiffness to weight ratios, is significantly lighter than steel and aluminum, offers high rigidity, is among the most corrosion resistant materials available, is an excellent conductor of electricity, and demonstrates superior fatigue properties. In addition, carbon fiber's low thermal expansion properties prevent significant expansion, shrinkage, or warping when exposed to large or repeated temperature changes.

 

CCN
Building upon the advantages offered by closed circuit television (CCTV), we incorporate additional features into a secure, closed circuit network (CCN) optimally designed for secure surveillance. Video and data transmissions are made point-to-point or point-to-multipoint over a secure wireless network in the field, back to a command center.

 

Cloud Based Security
Because of the decentralized nature of our systems, operations can be set up completely off-site, with automatic back ups and monitoring from anywhere in the world. Each system can be designed to provide complete control room functionality from within the smart pole module and offer user control and monitoring from a handheld device.

 

Corrosion Resistant Materials
For marine applications, our housing is offered in marine grade aluminum and/or coated carbon fiber to protect against corrosion and internal component damage.

 

Customizable Height
A modular pole design allows for customized product height. For higher height applications, additional pole modules and accompanying stability anchors can be added to the core system modules. Height extension modules can be added to any pole system to provide design flexibility and meed custom height requirements.

 

Day & Night Function
With an automatic "Day & Night" function, our cameras can operate successfully in a minimum illumination environment. As the scene darkens, the infrared cut filter is automatically disabled and the camera switches to night vision mode and the near-infrared sensitivity increases. 

 

Digital Image Stabilizer
The image stabilizer function minimizes the appearance of shaky images caused by low-frequency vibration and maintains a normal horizontal resolution. The stabilization algorithm is activated automatically with zoom, where the slightest mechanical movement can introduce picture shake. This function is useful for outdoor surveillance and traffic monitoring applications.

 

Dual Decoder
To provide the highest level of forensic integrity, select products are available with dual decoder functionality. The dual decoder helps combat surveillance integrity through tampering or vandalism attempts by storing surveillance data twice. Data is sent through the network to the control room and also stored locally as a backup in the event of network failure or tampering.

 

External Optics Compatible
For specialized, long-distance surveillance imaging select camera models are compatible with 3rd party optics such as external lenses and filters. 

 

External Vehicle Mount
Carbon fiber and/or mixed media housing is used to securely mount our systems to tactical vehicle exteriors for maximum technology integration with minimal impact on vehicle performance. This mounting capability creates a comprehensive mobile system, ideal for mobile operations.

Single solution products no longer fit the varying and dynamic demands of the security industry. For maximum flexibility, customized solutions, and efficient technological upgrades we have based all of our product systems on a modular principle and design. Our product systems are designed for longevity and technological growth. When looking to incorporate new technologies or make upgrades in the future, individual modules can be added, removed, or exchanged without the burdens of replacing an entire system.

 

Frame Rate
Our cameras provide both National Television System Committee (NTSC) and Phase Alternating Line (PAL) resolution standards, offering compatibility almost anywhere in the world.

 

Grid Power
For direct integration into traditional grid power, our systems are dual voltage (110/120V to 220/240V) compatible.

 

Hazardous Materials Detection
In addition to standard environmental readings, the surveillance system detects hazardous environmental materials, many of which are often undetectable by humans.  Advanced sensors equip the system with the ability to alert the command center and individuals within detection proximity when hazardous substances such as propane, butane, methane, natural gas, or radiation readings indicate unsafe levels.

 

Integrated Optical Fiber
Upon request, an optical fiber connector can be integrated into the camera. An integrated optical fiber facilitates the direct connection to the fiber cable, eliminating the need for an extra junction box, and can extend the range up to 20 km.

 

Internal Battery
The larger ruggedized housing of the BUMA Heavy Duty Head Module allows for independent and rechargeable internal battery power for the camera core.  The internal battery provides backup power to the camera head in the event of power loss and ensuring uninterrupted 24-hour surveillance. 

 

Lightning Protection
A lightning rod is integrated into our pole modules that grounds electric current and protects internal electronic components and housing integrity in the event of a lightning strike.

 

Local Storage
For increased surveillance data processing capabilities, this system incorporates local storage. This feature allows our unique system to bridge network failure and creates a secondary storage source that is immune from the risks of data tampering or damage from WiFi transmissions or command center interference. Our local storage capabilities also provide a tremendous aid for forensic work and data security.

 

Long Range Night Vision
To further enhance nighttime surveillance capabilities of the SPS we offer an IR laser illuminator module. For low-light applications, power to the illuminator is activated by a built-in light sensor. The IR laser illuminator is optimally paired with our standard camera core modules for a complete surveillance solution in any lighting condition.

 

Maritime
Several of our systems have been adapted for maritime use to equip travelers with the tools to combat the increasing dangers of maritime commerce, threats of dangerous weather, and the need for 360-degree surveillance. Our maritime systems feature maritime grade aluminum and/or coated carbon fiber IP68 housing with ruggedized internal components.

 

Motion Detection
Motion detection modules provide valuable information about movement around the SPS, including the size and threat level of the object detected and the speed of the object's approach. The motion detection modules are optimally used in perimeter protection, ingress and egress detection and traffic speed enforcement.

     Panic Button
A panic alert button can be integrated into any SPS and serve as an emergency call box. Once triggered, an alert signal is immediately sent to the command center, which relays vital information such as time, precise location, current readings from all sensors, and available video and audio feeds. 

 

Panorama
For complete, simultaneous, 360-degree field surveillance we offer several panorama modules. PTZ imaging modules provide visual area surveillance, covering all ground angles surrounding the pole mount. Additional environmental, motion detection, and audio modules support the imaging modules to provide complete panoramic information.
