Navtech Radar and SightLogix announce integration for enhanced perimeter security
Oxfordshire, UK and Princeton, NJ USA (October 1, 2024) Navtech Radar, a leading provider of radar surveillance technology, and SightLogix, the leader for smart thermal video solutions, are pleased to announce a technology partnership that enhances perimeter security through the integration of Navtech Radar’s Perimeter Intrusion Detection radar system with SightLogix’s SightSensor and SightTracker PTZ smart cameras.
This partnership introduces a powerful end-to-end Perimeter Intrusion Detection System (PIDS) for protecting outdoor sites and responding to perimeter breaches. The combined solution integrates SightLogix's smart thermal SightSensor detection cameras and SightTracker PTZ people trackers with the Navtech AdvanceGuard Security Solution security software platform.
With this integration, SightTracker PTZ will automatically zoom in, classify, and follow intruders detected by either the Navtech AdvanceGuard Solution or the SightSensor thermal detection cameras. The result is a comprehensive platform for detecting, classifying, and tracking potential threats in all weather and light conditions, even in complex and cluttered environments, within a single organized interface.
SightLogix SightSensors are smart thermal cameras that accurately detect intruders over large perimeters and outdoor areas.
SightTracker PTZ is designed to automatically classify and follow detected intruders as they move throughout the site. By re-centering the target up to 10 times per second, the SightTracker PTZ keeps the intruder in clear view with striking zoomed-in detail, eliminating the latency and “false follows” common with other PTZ tracking systems, delivering highly reliable “eyes on until hands on” security protection.
Navtech’s AdvanceGuard security solution is an innovative, wide area surveillance system providing automatic continuous surveillance on both sides of the perimeter. It uses high-definition radar and intelligent, rules-based software to protect complex, active sites where legitimate and illegitimate activity, including airfields and large storage areas, may occur together. It consistently wins side-by-side comparisons during comprehensive field trials, working in all weather and light conditions, requiring minimal infrastructure, and providing industry-leading low rates of false arms.
Key Features of the Integrated Solution Include:
Enhanced Perimeter Defense: Navtech AdvanceGuard Security Solution and SightLogix’s smart thermal detection cameras provide reliable detection capabilities across vast areas, making them ideal for securing perimeters in diverse settings such as airports, industrial sites, and critical infrastructure.
Automated Intruder Tracking: SightLogix’s SightTracker PTZ uses AI to automatically classify an object as a “person” and follow the detected intruder, ensuring continuous surveillance of any threat detected by Navtech’s security solution or an associated SightTracker.
All-Weather Performance: The integrated system is designed to perform flawlessly under any weather conditions, providing consistent, reliable security coverage day or night.
Reduced Operator Workload: The automation of intruder detection and tracking significantly reduces the need for constant manual monitoring, allowing security personnel to focus on critical response strategies.
Improved Security Accuracy: With embedded AI classification, the combined solution vastly lowers false alarms while enhancing overall security effectiveness by ensuring that only valid threats are immediately and accurately tracked.
Simonas Mikuzis, Security Segment Leader at Navtech Radar, stated, “This collaboration with SightLogix represents a leap forward in our mission to provide cutting-edge security solutions that are both reliable and innovative. Integrating our radar system with SightLogix’s SightTracker PTZ ensures that large perimeters are monitored and actively secured with precision and efficiency.”
Jim Hahn, SightLogix Chairman and CEO, added, “Our partnership with Navtech Radar provides customers with a proactive security solution that reliably detects and tracks outdoor intruders in real time, without the need for manual PTZ steering – instead, it’s fully automatic. This allows operators to focus on their response, preventing incidents before they occur and ensuring the highest level of security protection.'”
