RedHand's innovative approach to CCTV means that IntruderIP solves one of the major problems facing Alarm Monitoring companies and their customers. Industry statistics indicate that 70-75% of all alarm calls are false and in addition to the financial implications, this inconveniences key holders and can delay the arrival of the emergency services.IntruderIP provides a true, ‘live’ monitoring system by seamlessly integrating two of RedHand’s IP-based software products.
VisionIP our CCTV recording software installed on a PC in the customer’s premises can utilise analogue or IP cameras including the latest mega pixel devices. The system can be armed by using standard keypads. or at a set time each day, or by the monitoring station. VisionIP uses video motion detection built into the cameras or standard PIRs for greater reliability at night. If movement is detected, images are immediately sent to the monitoring station which is operating our IntruderIP software, over a broadband connection. Unlike the conventional response to an alarm call, there is no delay. The operator does not need to dial-in and search for pictures, as the relevant images instantly appear on his screen. However, if required live images can be viewed from the site and the cameras can be controlled remotely (if PTZ). Alarms can be verified immediately before appropriate action is taken.
The system also has inbuilt audio transmission which can be used to warn intruders that they have been detected as soon as they try to gain access onto the site and their movements are being observed and recorded. The main aim is to deter them before any damage is done. The main feature of the system is that 100% verification of an incident can be established, thus reducing false alarms and call-out charges.
