Rapid Evolution of AI-enabled Cameras
With the rapid evolution of AI-enabled cameras,
getting all the valuable metadata they capture
into a VMS can be diffi cult. i-PRO’s Active Guard
is technology bridge between i-PRO’s cameras
and popular VMSs like Genetec, Milestone and
Video Insight. This ensures that new features
and applications (even from third parties) can
fl ow directly into the VMS without requiring
custom coding work, which can result in a con-
tinuous game of chicken and egg. For example,
using Active Guard, only i-PRO cameras can
pass real-time, proactive alerts about detected
people, vehicles or license plates directly to a
Genetec or Milestone VMS. Best of all, it is free.
