COE and DigiSys launch revolutionary intelligent scene analysis system optimised for COE customers.

COE Group plc, the developer and integrator of advanced analogue and digital video surveillance systems, and DigiSys, the UK market leader in intelligent scene analysis software, have teamed up to launch “DigiSys IQ”, an integrated scene analysis system which adds unique features to COE’s worldwide installed base.

Previously unavailable in the UK, DigiSys IQ is a unique system for Intruder Detection, Slip and Fall Detection, People and Vehicle Counting, Suspicious Behaviour Analysis and Tracking, Graffiti Detection, Theft Detection and Abandoned Object Detection in a Crowd. One of its patented features is the ability to report unusual behaviour both by humans and at the micro-pixel level.

This system provides major operational and security benefits to existing COE sites. COE has already integrated DigiSys-IQ into its leading Telecommand range of control systems so that alarm management, camera macros and recording are immediately available without the need for extra operator positions or screens.

Martin Port, Chairman of DigiSys UK said, “By integrating IQ into COE’s highly respected series of analogue and digital CCTV systems, DigiSys has gained entry to a £30M high profile customer base built by COE over 16 years of operations.”

Andrew Wallace, COE’s Chief Executive, said “COE is always seeking new innovative offerings. Now, by integrating DigiSys IQ’s unique intelligent scene analysis software, our customers can gain instant alerts to unusual behaviour without any requirement for operator intervention or bespoke systems integration. This system helps reduce the operational costs of CCTV and simply plugs into existing COE installations.”
