Nuisance Alarms

Control Nuisance Alarms

Theft, vandalism, and terrorism are real threats that we face every day. Choosing to augment security with new technology is the next logical step in the progression of detecting and acting on these events 24/7.

Yes, your new technology will detect the events, but is it placing a disproportionate burden on existing resources?

Consider the operational cost of the system during 99% of the time where there are no threat events. Animals, vegetation, and weather are the most likely causes; and, in an uncontrolled state, a single site could generate dozens of nuisance alerts an hour, hundreds in a day, thousands in a year. This can lead to operator fatigue, drops inefficiency, and may ultimately hurt your security team more than it helps.

Technology must have the capability to adapt to its environment, to maintain high detection, and eliminate nuisance alarms as much as possible to support operations, not hinder it.

Introducing SPOTTERai

SPOTTERai is a neural networking tool providing end-users with the ability to train the system on how to respond to detected targets before they go to an operator for review. With the incorporation of AI and Machine Learning in the NIO platform, Spotter has created an efficient and reliable method for mitigating nuisance alarms, while maintaining its high probability of detection.

“The AI classifier and trainer are an excellent tool to further reduce false alarms and reduce the workload on the operator. After the operator manually classifies 30 tracks or more of at least two different types, the AI is able to differentiate between those types. Such as between cars and people or birds and drones with confidence that increases as more tracks are classified”, said Logan Harris, Founder of Spotter.

The addition of SPOTTERai pushes operational efficiency to the next level, adding even more value and functionality to end-users. Combined with the ever-growing offering of radar units, constantly expanding list of camera and VMS integrations, simple automated tracking, all-weather performance, and turn-key options, SpotterRF is doing everything possible to create a solution that augments your unique security program in a real and meaningful way.
