24/7 smart camera surveillance that supports your staff
Preventing theft and vandalism, working safely with dangerous equipment or even countering terrorism. Reactive camera surveillance is not foolproof. That's why VCS Observation implemented 24/7 smart camera surveillance for several companies, partially taking over the job of busy staff.
For safety and process optimization
In the manufacturing industry, everything revolves around safety and process optimization. Our systems support your daily operations. In addition to the well-known security cameras, VCS offers process cameras, which monitor your production line. These cameras can withstand extremely high heat and explosions. Via the control room, the cameras allow operators to detect whether machines are in trouble very early on. Or if the product is compromised.
One of our clients in the food industry owns a factory. Using our cameras, they monitor, among other things, whether the nozzles of the machines are working properly and are not clogged. But it is even possible to digitize the entire machine process. One can place sensors in the system, as well as employee time clocking. Process optimizations save your process operators a lot of valuable time. At the same time, it is less prone to errors.
With our thermal cameras, it is also possible to gain early insight into rapidly changing temperatures. This is crucial for production lines where, for example, critical bearings or electric motors are starting to heat up. Thanks to early detection, you can guarantee production lines’ continuity and availability.
From theft to threat of terrorism
In the manufacturing industry, VCS performs many special assignments. We implement camera systems in combination with customized software for specific applications. For example, one of our clients, a dairy factory, uses our systems to prevent industrial espionage. A real danger, because in some countries there is a huge shortage of milk powder.
At a cigarette manufacturer for which we work, operators check for theft. They monitor exactly what goes in and out on site. Another example: a drinking water company. This is considered a possible terrorist target, where there is a risk of someone trying to shut off or contaminate the water. Thanks in part to our cameras, they can vouch for safe drinking water.
Specially trained colleagues
At VCS, colleagues are trained especially to work in the manufacturing industry. They know the permits and regulations and attend regular training courses. They are used to working in precarious situations in factories, where hazardous materials are handled routinely. For example, our mechanics have an ``escape mask`` and are trained to use it. If toxic gases are released on site, they put on their mask and leave the site safely.

Camera surveillance
Intelligent cameras recognize objects and people. With a combination of thermal cameras and steerable cameras, camera surveillance brings every intruder into focus, even at night. Common (-looking) traffic can also be monitored purposefully using ANPR license plate registration cameras.

Mobile camera surveillance
VCS can place a temporary camera with mobile Internet connection at virtually any location. This is extremely effective for timely visualization of acute threats, such as theft or vandalism. They can also be used for extra surveillance and monitoring high-risk objects.

Smart cameras
The 'smart city' has become indispensable in public spaces. The basis for this are smart cameras. It is often thought that these solutions are only available for (large) cities. That is not true. Smart cameras also offer numerous opportunities for companies in the industry.
