2. Radar Video Surveillance (RVS)
Detect
Track
Respond
• Automates Detection, Tracking, and Video Response
• Identifies potential threats before they reach the
perimeter
• Deployed as a Product, not as a Project
• Utilizes Radar and CCTV to their Strengths
File Number-
3. Detection Sensors
• Marine Radar – Long range detection of vessels on
waterside perimeters
• Automatic Identification System (AIS) – Transponder
based detection for waterside applications
• Ground Radar (Short Range) – High resolution
detection and classification up to 300 meters
• Ground Radar (Long Range) – High resolution
detection and classification up to 5 kilometers
• Video Analytics – Detection and classification behind
buildings and other obstructions
File Number-
4. RVS Tracking
• Data from multiple sensors
‘fused’ into one display to
provide situational awareness
• Full featured geospatial map
allows operator to view areas
of interest
• Custom alarm zones filter out
activity in operational areas
• User defined rules allow tuning of system to reduce
false alarms
• Tracked objects or ‘targets’ are prioritized using the
rules for that facility
• Targets are ignored once the operator acknowledges
an alarm
• Multiple configurations change maps, alarm zones,
and rules for different security readiness levels
File Number-
5. Threat Response
• Honeywell EBI – Alarms processed in the
same screen and format as all other
alarms. Unique responses available
through scripting.
• Pro-Watch Alarms – In the same screen
and format as all other alarms.
Acknowledging alarm causes target to be
ignored.
• CCTV Response – DVM steers camera,
displays image, and records activity.
Record rate and pre-record times are
configurable.
• Most Cameras Supported – DVM supports
industry standard camera interfaces such
as Pelco.
