Mobile camera trailers have skyrocketed in popularity as a security solution for construction and real estate development. Before making a decision to buy or lease one of these powerful security devices, it makes sense to learn how the monitoring service works. Here is an overview of what you can expect when you use mobile camera trailer monitoring to protect your construction site afterhours, on holidays, and other times it will be unstaffed.

Video Analytics

Video surveillance is a critical piece of any security strategy. However, video surveillance is most effective when video analytics are incorporated into the service. By analyzing the subject being captured on video in order to calculate the level of security risk present, analytics go well beyond monitoring a site with cameras. They rely on powerful artificial intelligence to determine this risk. The AI includes pixel modification formulas and other proprietary, non-traditional formulas that are designed to hone in on subjects and assess the risk level in seconds.

Video Verification

When the AI determines the subject on camera is a security risk to the site, the monitoring center receives an immediate alert. From there, a monitoring agent opens a live video feed to investigate the event in real time and verify it as a security breach. This video verification is a powerful tool for elevating the event in police priority. Because of the prevalence of false alarms, many local police departments actually require video verification in order to respond to a dispatch. Mobile camera trailer monitoring can provide that necessary verification to get police to your site faster.

Mobile camera trailer monitoring is a simple, but effective security intervention that protects construction materials, equipment and other assets on active building sites — and because the trailers are solar powered, there’s no power source or internet required.

Interactive Response

Upon verifying the event as an intrusion or other security breach, the monitoring agent then talks down to the site by issuing a warning message over the loudspeaker in the unit. Meanwhile, the powerful blue and red strobe light on the mobile camera trailer is activated as well. The message is intended to notify the subject they are on camera and being watched by a live agent, while the strobe light is designed to attract attention to the subject. Often, this interactive response prompts subjects to flee the site immediately. If the subject remains onsite, the agent can dispatch police and notify the subject of this action.

Customer Notification

As our mobile camera trailer monitoring customer, you will receive a push notification to your smartphone notifying you of the security event at your site. Notification happens via text or a phone call, similar to a home security alarm event. From there, you can proceed with whatever protocols you have in place for security breaches.
