XProtect Incident Manager

The new XProtect Incident Manager enables users to capture any live feed with a single click

The new XProtect Incident Manager enables users to capture any live feed with a single click. When the incident is over, users can stop the capture and start filling in incident details. Incident types are fully configurable, allowing users to define incident types and details for reporting.

Configuration options include free text, drop-downlists, dates and time fields, and several other options. Previously recorded footage can also be added to an incident to strengthen the evidence.

Milestone XProtect Essential+ on AWS

With the new release of Milestone XProtect 2022 R2 video management software, the Essential+ version of XProtect will replace the previous version in AWS Marketplace.

Users will now be able to have all XProtect 2022 R2 product variants on AWS for optimized storage and transmission. The Milestone XProtect 2022 R2 version will be added to the previous version in AWS Marketplace, beginning on July 5, 2022.

Improved License Plate Recognition (LPR)

Milestone XProtect 2022 R2 features enhanced license plate style recognition. Different countries have distinct license plate types and formats for various types of vehicles. The updated LPR feature enables users to recognize, sort, and bundle license plate types, by analyzing motor vehicles more efficiently.

Depending on the country’s plate style, users will be able to distinguish trucks from private cars, or even police cars, limousines, trucks, and buses from each other. Similarly, some countries have separate plates for gas driven or electric cars that will now be readily identified.
