SMARTER CCTV MONITORING THROUGH INTELLIGENT ANALYSIS
Modern CCTV systems generate large amounts of data—but without intelligent tools in place, it can be difficult to extract value or respond effectively to every activation. That is why SMC includes advanced video analytics as standard on all new CCTV monitoring contracts.
Through our partnerships with CheckMyCCTV and Calipsa, we provide accredited access to automated system checks and AI-powered video verification. These tools work in the background to improve performance, reduce false alarms, and give both installers and end users greater confidence in their CCTV systems.
There is no complex setup or extra contract required. Our analytics tools are fully integrated into our Alarm Receiving Centre for seamless, real-time support.
CheckMyCCTV performs automatic maintenance checks on each connected CCTV system, once every hour. It identifies faults, offline cameras, hard disk failures, image quality issues, and other operational problems—alerting the installer immediately through a central dashboard.
This saves time, reduces the need for site visits, and ensures customers are always protected by a fully functioning system.
Calipsa uses artificial intelligence to analyse CCTV video feeds and filter out false-positive activations. It can tell the difference between real threats and common triggers like wildlife or headlights, reducing unnecessary callouts and improving response accuracy.
This gives end users a more reliable experience while keeping monitoring agents focused on genuine security events.
