Remote Video Monitoring

Cameras record what happened. Remote video monitoring helps stop it from happening. Avigilon remote video monitoring from Motorola Solutions turns the cameras you already have into an active layer of security, with AI-assisted detection and trained monitoring specialists watching for threats and responding as events unfold, 24 hours a day.

It can take the place of onsite guard patrols or work alongside them, extending coverage to every connected camera at once.

From detection to response

Every event follows the same path, from the first alert to the right response:

  • AI-assisted detection. Video analytics watch continuously for intrusions, suspicious behavior and loitering, and flag the events that need attention.
  • Live monitoring and verification. Monitoring specialists review each flagged event in real time to confirm what is happening and screen out false alarms.
  • Live audio talk-down. Through speakers on site, a specialist speaks directly to the person on camera, which can end an incident without sending anyone to the site.
  • Escalation and response dispatch. When an event needs more than a warning, it is escalated according to your response plan, whether that means alerting your team or dispatching emergency services.

A proactive alternative to onsite guarding

Traditional guarding puts a person in one place at a time. Remote monitoring watches every connected camera together and responds as events happen, rather than at the next patrol. For some sites it replaces overnight or weekend guard coverage; for others it supplements an existing security team.

Built to fit the system you have

  • Works with your existing cameras. The service is camera-agnostic and integrates with the cameras and video management system already in place.
  • Fast to deploy. Monitoring can typically be implemented in days.
  • Clear reporting. Incident reports and activity summaries keep a record of what was detected and how it was handled.

Where it fits

Remote video monitoring suits sites that need coverage when no one is there, or more coverage than staff can provide, including office buildings, industrial and manufacturing facilities, and energy and critical infrastructure sites.

Pair it with Avigilon video security

Remote monitoring complements both of Avigilon’s platforms: Alta cloud security and Unity on-premise security.
