What Is Video Analytics?

The brains of your security system

Video Analytics, also known as Video Content Analysis (VCA), is a technology that utilizes algorithms to automatically analyze video content.

Video Analytics solutions perform real-time video processing to automatically generate descriptions (metadata) of what is happening in a video stream. This allows them to perform tasks such as detecting intruders, reading license plates, counting people and tracking objects.

Video Analytics in Security

In the physical security industry, Video Analytics software is a pivotal tool, revolutionizing surveillance and threat detection. By automating the tedious task of analyzing extensive CCTV footage, it greatly enhances the efficiency of security personnel. The generated metadata forms the basis for informed decision-making, empowering security staff to respond immediately to potential threats.

Seamless integration with a video management system (VMS) facilitates surveillance automation by allowing the creation of rules for specific events, alerting security personnel for immediate action.

Types and Applications of Video Analytics

Video Analytics detects and tracks person outside of a gated perimeter.

Video Analytics can be applied in various ways, including object detection and object tracking, motion detection, crowd detection, people counting, loitering detection, detection of suspicious behavior, intrusion detection for theft prevention, identification of individuals driving in the wrong direction, vehicle counting, license plate recognition, fire and smoke detection, and much more.

Intelligent Video Analytics Explained

Intelligent Video Analytics classifies a moving object as a car and tracks its movement from a long distance.

This advanced technology for Bosch IP cameras takes the next step in converting video data into insights at the edge. It is highly resilient to false triggers and enables long-distance intrusion detection in extreme weather conditions.

AI-Based Video Analytics

We leverage the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to enable users to understand their environment more deeply so they can respond proactively. And ultimately, predict unforeseen or future situations. Developed on Bosch's intellectual property used in automotive applications, like autonomous driving, we have over 20 years of experience developing algorithms for Video Analytics.

Deep learning based Video Analytics drives accuracy levels beyond 95 percent.
