Premium forensic video analytics

SMART Cybersecurity Handbook 2022 Surveillance

With the introduction of XProtect Rapid REVIEW, Milestone’s customers will be able to accelerate investigations and find what they are looking for with speed and accuracy. Powered by BriefCam’s video analytics technology, hours of video recordings can now be reviewed in minutes, bringing enhanced decision-making and momentum to any investigation.

Milestone’s XProtect Rapid REVIEW is an intelligent video analytics solution that allows security operators and investigators to efficiently search through hours and hours of video recordings and pinpoint exactly what they are looking for in mere minutes.

Powered by the innovative BriefCam video analytics technology, XProtect Rapid REVIEW is an add-on product that is seamlessly integrated into Milestone’s XProtect Smart Client. The product is supported on all paid XProtect VMS products.

“XProtect Rapid REVIEW is an ideal solution for Milestone XProtect customers, looking to enhance their VMS investment with premium forensic video analytics. BriefCam is thrilled to tap into a segment of the market not currently addressed, through Milestone and its vast partner ecosystem,” said Gili Rom, VP Strategy and Alliances at BriefCam.

Bjørn Skou Eilertsen, chief technology officer at Milestone Systems, said: “Clearly, XProtect Rapid REVIEW is an important tool for our customers to help them speed up their investigation and in general work smarter with their VMS. Bringing the best solutions for our customers is our key focus.”

XProtect Rapid REVIEW enables highly accurate, cross-camera video searches and filtering, based on an expanding suite of classes, attributes, behaviours and visual layers that help investigators pinpoint people, objects and behaviours of interest. The VIDEO SYNOPSIS technology gives the operator the ability to visualise objects simultaneously that appeared at different times within the video.

“The launch of XProtect Rapid REVIEW is a strategic partnership to bring video analytics closer to our core product and add further value to our customers’ XProtect investment,” said Eilertsen. “We want to enable businesses and governments to harness the power of data insights, which can help them address scarcity of resources, security threats and other challenges.

“Sometimes we may find that the best option is to integrate analytics in XProtect.  That said, openness is built into Milestone’s DNA, XProtect remains an open platform VMS and we continue to deliver the video management solutions that best solve customers’ needs through strong partnerships with our technology partners,” concluded Eilertsen.

XProtect Rapid REVIEW includes video analytics that leverage existing video surveillance networks to derive searchable intelligence from recorded video content. Driven by artificial intelligence and deep learning, XProtect Rapid REVIEW detects and extracts objects in video. It then identifies each object based on trained Deep Neural Networks and classifies each object to enable intelligent video analysis including search and filtering. This allows for the following analytic capabilities and use cases:

- Face recognition.

- Licence plate recognition.

- Appearance similarity.

- Face mask detection.

- Proximity identification.

- Line crossing.

- Visual layers.

- Filter tolerance.

- Density and speed control.

- Case management.

- Video synopsis.

- Multi-camera search.

- Sort control.
