Axis Communications introduces AXIS Guard Suite of video analytics applications, expanding its portfolio for video surveillance solutions. The applications, available for various monitoring needs, complement Axis’ range of network camera solutions and are easily integrated with AXIS Camera Station - a proven video management system (VMS) optimized for Axis’ network video products.

AXIS Guard Suite now offers a reliable solution for use in low-traffic areas such as after-hour monitoring of retail shops and offices, parking lots and other unattended areas where reliable motion detection is needed. In addition, other video motion detection features are available through Axis’ application development partners that provide a broad range of video analytics that work with Axis network video products.

AXIS Guard Suite provides robust detection as video analysis is performed directly on the camera’s uncompressed video stream, and supported by AXIS False Alarm Filtering technology for high reliability.

The AXIS Guard Suite offers three applications:

– AXIS Motion Guard: For general motion detection, typically on premises that are supposed to be empty after hours, e.g. parking lots, construction sites, etc.

– AXIS Fence Guard: For protection of a fenced-off area by detecting attempts to climb or sabotage the fence

– AXIS Loitering Guard: For detecting suspicious behavior in semi-public areas where loitering may pose a security issue

The applications are downloadable from the AXIS Camera Application Platform (ACAP) gallery and easy to install and configure, with an intuitive user interface, contextual help and smart configuration options. A quick five-step setup wizard guides the installer through calibration, area, filters and custom profile settings (e.g. for night time, windy days, etc.)

AXIS Guard Suite is planned to be available in Q4 2015 through Axis distribution channels.
