RISCO has unveiled its new VUpoint AI video solution in the UK, aiming to enhance the capabilities of its security ecosystem.
This solution integrates AI-powered cameras and Network Video Recorders (NVRs) with the updated iRISCO app, providing faster and more precise event verification and real-time monitoring for users in residential and commercial settings.
Key Features of VUpoint AI
The introduction of VUpoint AI offers several innovative features without a premium cost. It enables proactive deterrence through built-in lights and sirens to challenge potential intruders before they can enter. The system also delivers clear, full-color imagery both day and night, using 4MP/5MP cameras with excellent low-light performance.
Enhanced AI analytics provide smarter alerts, supporting functions like virtual line crossing, perimeter intrusion detection, and object-left alerts. For more detailed insights, number plate recognition and people and vehicle counting aid in managing access and flow. AI cameras can be configured as a zone within a RISCO intruder system, improving operational visibility with tools like heat maps, crowd density analysis, and queue monitoring.
Seamless Integration with Existing Systems
VUpoint AI seamlessly connects to RISCO control panels and the RISCO CloudVUpoint AI seamlessly connects to RISCO control panels and the RISCO Cloud, allowing unified operation, notifications, and video verification within iRISCO. This integration offers users and monitoring teams a cohesive experience.
Included software tools provide powerful search options and an intuitive video player, with more features like Video Management Systems (VMS) slated for future inclusion.
Expanded NVR Options
The VUpoint AI NVR lineup includes models supporting 4 to 32 channels, with PoE, 4K HDMI, and AI functionalities, designed for professional setups. These recorders offer scalable storage options, catering to a range of installation needs.
Availability and Resources
Available now in the UK, installers can purchase VUpoint AI directly from RISCO UK. Support includes comprehensive training and technical resources accessible through RISCO University and launch webinars.
Privacy and Compliance
Designed with privacy in mind, VUpoint AI supports privacy-aware configurations, data minimization, and secure remote access through the RISCO Cloud. The system is compliant with NDAA Section 889, with UKCA Declarations of Conformity for NVRs and PoE cameras, and a UK PSTI Statement of Compliance available.
Operators should implement appropriate signage and policies when utilizing features like ANPR and people counting.
