Tier One Security

Perimeter security with option for Camera integration

The proposed system addresses the issue of lack of integrity as found in most systems. The
deploying authorities require systems that are able to operate easily and reliably under a variety of
operational and environmental conditions and that are not prone to false alarms and nuisance
alarms. With confidence in the integrity of the monitoring system being a major concern today, new
technology employing advanced distributed fiber optic sensors provide a reliable and cost-effective
intrusion detection technology. These technology solutions come in two flavours, namely, in-fence
deployment and in ground deployment for intrusion detection.
The multi-zone fiber optic sensor cable can be mounted to rigid fencing and/or buried in trenches
around a perimeter for optimum monitoring of acoustic disruptions. The system uses high-fidelity
reproduction and classification to accurately alarm upon detection of any noise or vibration that
indicates tampering, intrusion, digging, operating of machinery or vehicles, and any other breaching
events near the cables location.

In fence intrusion detection

In fence intrusion detection is a monitoring system that detects the first signs of intrusion at the
fence line, performing easily and reliably under a wide variety of operational and environmental
conditions with an extremely low false alarm and nuisance alarm rates.

In ground intrusion detection

This consists of a buried fiber optic perimeter security system designed to detect and verify
personnel, animals, walking, running, digging, or the operation of machinery/vehicles near the
sensing cable.
Advantage of fiber optic based system
The buried fiber optic cable system replaces more expensive, unreliable, bulky electronic sensors
currently used in existing conventional perimeter security systems with a low cost, ultra-reliable
fiber optic sensor cable.

Main Entry Gate (Boom Barrier and PTZ Camera with Microphone
controllers)
Boom Barriers
Automatic Boom Barrier offer efficient security at the exit and the entry points of condominiums, parking lots,
where medium to heavy traffic is expected. Designed for heavy-duty operation with sleek and modern looks,
these have inbuilt anti-crush safety device suspends the motion of the barrier, should it meet any obstruction.
Optional beam sensor provides further protection to vehicles. Dual speed of the barrier optimizes time and
maximizes safety. This unique feature ensures quick opening and closing of the barrier with soft landing.
Duration of fast and slow speeds is programmed at the time of installation according to the length of the boom
and the frequency of traffic expected. Entire system is powered by 24 Volts DC to avoid electrocution and to
integrate barrier with other peripheral safety devices such as access control system, optical beam sensor, etc.
for greater flexibility and added safety. The barrier is activated either by a single touch push button or remote
control. However its electronic control panel is designed to accept signals from various controls and safety
accessories such as Beam sensor(optional), Magnetic card reader (optional), computer, etc. and added safety,
at the time of installation according to the length of the boom and the frequency of traffic expected.

Under Vehicle Scanners

The Under Vehicle Scanning System is a computer vision based system which uses high end electro mechanical
and camera based assemble to image the underside of the moving vehicle at the entrance of any high security
installations. The video grabbed by the system is stitched to form a compote image of the underside of the
vehicle. Potential applications include inspection of vehicle underside for presence and detection of unwanted
substances like bombs, explosives, contraband things etc.

As the vehicle remains moving at all times through a preselected area, the operator has time to interrogate the
image produced within seconds of the vehicle having been driven over the scanner system. Faster display
prevents any lengthy & often undesirable disruptions to the traffic flow. The image is displayed on a monitor
and can be controlled by the operator to change the appearance of the image or zoom into selected areas to
examine the underside image of the vehicle in more details.
Another distinct feature is the additional 3-4 auxiliary cameras, which are places at an angle so as to cover the
video of the hard to image areas, e.g. the area between tyre and mudguard, top part of the silencer etc. Which
provide a thorough view of the hidden parts of the vehicles underside.

Digital Signage
Electronic messaging systems, such as outdoor and indoor LED signs and displays, moving message
boards, variable message signs, tickers, electronic message centers, and many other forms of digital
signage are being put to use today.

The above picture shows a specialized line of electronic message boards designed for affordability
and simplicity. Most will find these outdoor electronic message boards simple to install and very
easy to program. In addition, these electronic message boards are ideal for safety awareness
applications. These electronic message boards can stand-alone as a single electronic message board
or be networked together as a system of electronic message centers. These LED message boards are
based on a modular construction which allows for a variety of sizes, lines and characters.
Furthermore, these LED message boards are weather resistant and can handle harsh environmental
conditions, such as sun glare, heat, cold, and humidity.

Tier Two Security

Tier 2 Security Location

Access Control System - Entry & exit boom barrier with RFID & access cards
ID Badges and Access Control - Most organizations today require a performing and efficient access
control system. There are many reasons for having such a system and these include:
1) Enhanced security to limit access to restricted areas,
2) Tracking residence/visitor activity,
3) Improve loss prevention and
4) Prevent terrorist activities
RFID technology is quickly becoming a popular choice since the advancement in technology makes a
variety of solutions available to any organization. There are major deficiencies in the legacy solutions
that use the traditional access control systems. Barcodes, magnetic stripes, and proximity readers all
rely on the user to either make contact or place the badge very close to the reader. In addition, bar
codes can only be read one at a time and the respective embedded information cannot be updated.
Such limitations can be cumbersome and time consuming.

An RFID access control system can provide an easy and efficient solution. RFID badges can be read
from much further distances than other traditional technologies and the embedded electronic
information for each badge can be over-written repeatedly. The increased reading distance thus
enables other tracking technologies like surveillance cameras to be activated in conjunction with an
employee being in their vicinity. Furthermore, multiple RFID badges can be read all at the same time.
Information about employee access, attendance, and duties performed, can be easily and efficiently
monitored and stored in a database. Access information can also be tied to a Windows Active
Directory or LDAP for user authentication and therefore be synchronized to an authorized access
scheme.

Tier Three Security

Flap Barrier Access

The retractable panel pedestrian barrier is a user friendly access barrier developed for the fast
processing of people in areas such as elevators, bars, recreation clubs, etc in an apartment complex.
