Introduction

• When you think video for uses in manufacturing, what comes to mind?

Traditional Video

• Analytics: Move to edge vs. server based• Adaptive Motion Detection

Detects and tracks objects that enter a scene and then triggers an alarm when the objects enter a user-defined zone or cross a trip wire.

• Camera SabotageDetects contrast changes in the field of view. An alarm is triggered if the lens is obstructed with spray paint, a cloth, or covered with a lens cap. Any unauthorized repositioning of the camera also triggers an alarm.

• Loitering DetectionIdentifies when people or vehicles remain in a defined zone longer than the user-defined time allows.

• Object Counting Counts the number of objects that enter a defined zone or cross a trip wire.

• Stopped Vehicle Detects vehicles stopped near a sensitive area longer than the user-defined time allows

Non-Traditional Video

• Specialty cameras for harsh environments

● Operational in 90 MPH winds● Ability to operate in extreme

temperatures● Integrated wipers ● Integrated positioning systems that

meet stringent explosion proof requirements

● Thermal and Thermography offerings

A thermal camera sees part of the electromagnetic spectrum that is invisible to humans -- it sees heat, NOT light.

Best at detecting humans and vehicles.

Review: What is Thermal

Visible cameras require

illumination

Thermal cameras require

NO illumination

Reflected Light

Radiated Heat

Thermal vs. Visible

● Thermal imagers can:● See in complete darkness● See through obscurants (smoke, dust, haze)● See through particulates (fog, rain, snow)● See beyond the glare of a bright light● Be effective at all hours, in all weather types

Advantages to Thermal

● All that thermal imagers can do plus:● Ability to capture temperature signatures in addition to

heat signatures● Provide trending analysis● Trigger alarms when thresholds are met● Provide continuous vs. static flow of information regarding

monitored activity

Advantages to Thermography

Video Only Video and Data Combined

Video and Data Separate Data Only

• Think data with video vs. video with data

Non-Traditional Video

Non-Traditional Video• Interface with data driven world

• SCADA: Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition• PLC: Programmable Logic Controllers• HMI: Human Machine Interface• VMS: Video Management Systems

Set and Monitor Alarms

Provide Trending Reports

Non-Traditional Video

• Advanced edge driven analytics• In addition to traditional analytics we are beginning

to see more value added data driven options• Absolute temperature

Measures the actual temperature of an object and alarms when the object exceeds, or drops below a temperature set in the analytic

• Relative temperatureMeasures the temperature of 2 or more objects and alarms when difference between the temperatures of objects exceeds the temperature set in the analytic.

• Self Reference Takes the initial temperature of an object during set up and alarms when the object’s self referenced temperature exceeds a specified temperature delta.

• Camera Sabotage / Vandal Detection

Non-Traditional Video

• Positioning: Where does it all fit? Safety

Preventative Maintenance

Regulatory

Ladle Monitoring • Ability to monitor wear

and tear of liningsTorpedo Car Monitoring• Ability to monitor

preheating of car to ensure duration and energy consumption is sufficient to prevent hardening

Flare Detection• Detect and set alarms

for atmospheric gas leaks

Preventative/Predictive Maintenance • Real time trending

analysis for critical infrastructure

• Ability to set alarms when certain thresholds or parameters are reached

Heat signature? Temperature signature?

● Video is being viewed at with a new set of lenses that encompass both video for security (traditional), and video for operational needs (non traditional)

● As data takes center stage, operational video is now seen as a key component in data driven systems that utilize SCADA, HMI, PLC and VMS interfaces to provide continuous vs. static monitoring of mission critical systems

● Advances in operational video show strong ROI and TCO in the areas of Safety, Regulations, Preventative Maintenance and Process Optimization
