Motorola Solutions has acquired IPVideo, the creator of the HALO Smart Sensor, an all-in-one intelligent sensor that detects real-time health and safety threats. The company is based in Bay Shore, New York, USA.
HALO Smart Sensor
The HALO Smart Sensor is a multifunctional safety and security device with built-in vape detection and air quality monitoring, gunshot detection, abnormal noise and motion detection, and emergency keyword detection.
In areas where cameras and video security solutions are not suitable, such as restrooms, classrooms, hospital rooms, and hotel rooms, the HALO Smart Sensor can improve situational awareness and extend the perimeter of security while protecting privacy.
End-to-end physical security offering
“With its powerful sensor capabilities, HALO extends our end-to-end physical security offering by integrating a non-video threat detection product into our safety and security ecosystem,” said Mahesh Saptharishi, Executive Vice President and Chief Technology Officer of Motorola Solutions.
He adds, “We see this as an opportunity to introduce additional detection solutions that help our customers protect people, property, and places.”
