The Professional AI Series identifies people & vehicles using machine learning, to reduce false motion detection alerts and provide meaningful video event notifications in real-time. When used in conjunction with a VIP Vision NVR, person and vehicle events can be isolated in footage playback to improve surveillance efficiency.
The Watchguard™ Compact AI Series brings the best of AI surveillance features in an affordable package. The NVR8COM-I allows you to bring AI face recognition or AI person/vehicle detection to your CCTV installations, guaranteeing that important events are detected and can be acted upon. This NVR is perfect for new systems or replacement of existing NVRs to upgrade to AI capable surveillance.
