Use cases
What people ask us to work out.
Every site has two or three questions that keep coming back. These are the ones we are asked about most, what the platform looks for in each, and what it hands the person who has to act on it.
Property
Parking lot security cameras: what works on open ground after dark
A parking lot is the hardest ordinary site to cover well — wide, flat, badly lit, and full of vehicles that block every sightline you had at ground level. Height fixes more of it than camera count does.
Use case
Perimeter intrusion detection: what works and what it costs
A perimeter is long, mostly empty, and almost never has power along it. That combination is why most perimeter projects are priced by the trench rather than by the sensor.
Use case
PPE Detection on Active Construction Sites: What It Catches
Hard hats and hi-vis are the easy part. The detections that matter are the ones a walk-around would never have caught, because they happen when the safety lead is on the other side of the site.
Use case
Catching illegal dumping: what the camera has to work out
Dumping is not a motion problem. It's a before-and-after problem — a vehicle stops somewhere vehicles don't stop, and the scene is different when it leaves.
Yards and lots
Equipment yards, fuel stores and dealership lots after dark
Open ground full of machinery, fuel and vehicles, lit for visibility rather than for cameras, and empty for two thirds of every day. What to cover, what to escalate on, and how to tell that something valuable has stopped moving.
Vacant property
Monitoring a vacant building, empty lot or closed facility
An empty property has no staff, usually no power and no network, and a problem that compounds quietly — the first unchallenged entry is what invites the second. What monitoring an unoccupied site actually involves, and the cheapest arrangement that works.
Property
Apartment building security cameras: coverage, privacy and what tenants accept
Multifamily is the one property type where the security design and the privacy design are the same design. Get the second wrong and the first never gets installed.
Use case
Watching Pest Pressure on a Farm With Solar Cameras
Scouting a field tells you what was happening the hour someone walked it. A camera on a trap station tells you what changed overnight, on the day it changed rather than the week after.
Use case
Video Analytics for HOAs: Dumping, Parking and Amenity Abuse
The board wants the dumping to stop. The residents want to know nobody is watching their front door. Both are reasonable, and the gap between them is where most community camera projects fail.
Use case
Detecting after-hours access on a site that's supposed to be empty
Once the site closes, anyone inside the line is unexpected by definition. The hard part isn't spotting them — it's telling them apart from the people who are meant to be there.
