SightLogix has released powerful new capabilities for the SightSensor Forward-Looking Infrared perimeter security system, offering the best detection performance, enhanced Thermal AI false alarm reduction, and a suite of ease-of-use features.
These additions reaffirm SightLogix’s commitment to providing best-in-class thermal AI security solutions for outdoor site protection. SightLogix will demonstrate these latest features at Perimeter Protection 2025 in Nuremberg, Germany (Hall 1 / Booth Number 1-521) this week, from January 14-16, 2025.
Key Features and Capabilities of the Update
Thermal AI False Alarm Reduction
- SightSensors utilize highly trained Thermal AI to ensure consistent performance day and night, in all weather conditions, without relying on external lighting. This delivers true 24/7 security coverage with near-zero false alarms.
- The new model classifies more objects at greater distances, further improving false alarm reduction.
Automated Detection Policies
New “Auto Zoning” simplifies the creation of comprehensive geospatial security policies with a single click:
- Automatically draws active detection zones tailored to the camera’s detection range.
- Automatically defines mask zones for areas beyond the camera’s detection range (e.g., the sky or traffic).
- Automatically configures Thermal AI detection policies for optimal accuracy and minimal false alarms.
- Auto Zones are particularly beneficial for mobile remote video applications, enabling easy relocation without complex setup.
Smart Thermal Upscaling
- Doubles the resolution of the thermal stream while maintaining exceptional thermal image clarity.
- Available on all SightSensors (except 640×480 models).
Improved Power Management
- SightSensors now allow users to define maximum heater power draw, optimizing solar power usage—a critical feature for remote applications in colder climates.
Additional enhancements include improved detection for distant targets, a bulk download option for stored alarm clips, new AI overlays that label classified objects as “Person,” “Vehicle,” or “Animal,” and simplified AI setup options for enhanced usability.
All SightSensor cameras now ship with these new features. Existing customers with an active support contract can download the new firmware at no charge by contacting SightLogix.
Building on a 20-Year Legacy of Detection Performance
In an environment where any security breach poses a serious threat, SightLogix stands out as the premier solution for perimeter security:
- Absolute Best Detection: SightSensors detect and acquire an intruder’s geo-location, size, speed, and bearing within milliseconds for the fastest preemptive response.
- Near-Zero False Alarms: Thermal AI ensures detection accuracy day and night.
- Early Warning: Detects intruders beyond the perimeter, providing advanced warning with a large buffer zone.
- Reliability Over Long Distances: Fewer sensors are needed to protect extensive perimeters, reducing infrastructure costs.
- Real-time Detect and Assess: Smart PTZ cameras automatically track intruders with zoomed-in visual accuracy.
- Cost Efficiency: Lower total cost of ownership due to reduced sensor, pole, and infrastructure requirements.
- Web-Based Perimeter Design Tool (SightSurvey): Allows users to design a virtual smart camera layout directly in their browser before site visits.
