Hikvision Ensures “Fun Safe Philly Summer”
“Fun Safe Philly Summer” is an initiative that connects youth and their families to free and lowcost summer activities. Utilising Philadelphia's community centres, the project is a collaboration across City agencies, department and external partners. With the safety of the community in mind, the City of Philadelphia pledged a significant budget investment to outfit all 140 community centers with CCTV by 2016. With every department of the city operating on a different system, any addition had to be versatile and compatible with the current system. Hikvison’s Video Management System was a perfect fit as it could easily communicate with systems and cameras made by other manufacturers. Hikvision’s high performance cameras, NVRs, and VMS technology were selected as a cost-effective solution to protect the city with cutting-edge video surveillance. Leading the installation, Fidelity Alarm installed Hikvisions 7254 3megapixel Outdoor Network Camera at several of the community centers due to the camera’s wide dynamic range and true day/night functionality. Since the installation of the security cameras, the community centers have already seen a reduction in crime. With Hikvision, Philadelphia is committed to provided a safe and secure future for all of their residence.
