  3. Agenda • Physical Security Market The need • The next Generation in Physical Security Surveillance Systems: HarmAlarm • Evolutionary (existing visual systems) • Revolutionary (advanced technology growth) • Green Value (energy conservation) • The Future: 21st Century – The Security Age • Enterprise Value • Increase Revenues • Lower Operating costs • Increase functionality • New Applications (new markets) • Summary

  4. Defining Issue State of Security Status • Control rooms are costly, energy consuming, and understaffed for video volume • Most security systems operate in a record only mode. • Technology until now has failed to find the solutions desired. • Industry Security Requirements • Detect security threat • Verify • Provide actionable intelligence • Operational communication • Update the event • Document the incident • No false alarms • Affordability

  5. HarmAlarm: Next Generation Defined by the concept & claims of US Patent 7,738,008, June 2010 • A surveillance field is formed by the common fields-of-view of two independent imaging sources. • Objects common to the surveillance field are detected: • They are computed as physical objects in linear dimensions (SqFt) • They are located at precise coordinates (x,y,z) • And they are continuously tracked over time. • When objects are tracked, real time data is available: • This data supports higher order threat detection criteria (behavioral). • Also, the simultaneous detection, independent validation, & tracking eliminates false alarms • The elimination of false alarms: • Makes HarmAlarm the first truly automatic physical security system in the Security industry. • Detection  Response/Alarm, the benefit is: Improve the effectiveness of control rooms and provide record-only Security systems a real time capability

  6. HarmAlarm ArchitectureUS Patent No. 7,738,008, June 2010 Key elements • Two imaging sensors form a Secured area, defined by overlapping fields-of-views • 3 D real time scientific equations for target detection & classification • Connectivity: • Optimized for each application • Host computers: • Remote: mainframe, • Site: desk top or Cloud based • IP Protocol • End-user set up • Menu driven • Threat Criteria: • Menu specific, End-user defined • Remote threat notification • Response team • Safety alert • Embedded Applications

  7. Immediate Markets

  8. Retrofit Plan Add a second camera, (if needed), and install HarmAlarm 3 D processing • Manned security Control rooms: Benefits • Improve the control rooms effectiveness • Directs the detected threat to the operator • Increases the number of Cameras to Operator ratio while improving coverage • Layer Security for critical applications(redundancy) • Downsize or eliminate Control Rooms • TV monitors & recorders • Air conditioning • Electrical power consumption • Record-only systems: Benefit: • A real time threat detection capability • Alerts workers, safety • Provides the End-user an option to add a response capability • Direct response becomes affordable, when false alarms are contained/eliminated. • Build relationships for the future • 1,000 plus existing physical security integrators and service providers • Most will need technical assistance to implement HarmAlarm • Integrators become our “feet on the ground” for HarmAlarm growth

  9. Revolutionary • HarmAlarm’s preferred embodiment is: • Infrared Imagers with wireless connectivity. • Why? • Infrared imaging provides stable target signatures. • Infrared enhances target tracking • Especially in multi-target environments • Precise target signature and uniqueness • Maintains all objects in the track file • The track file: • Needed for advanced behavioral threat recognition • Infrared technology ensures the lowest false alarms rate.

  10. False Alarm Improvement • Camera A false alarm 1/100 • Camera B false alarm 1/100 • Occurring in common area 1/100 • Independent Size matching 1/100 • 3 D “single look” combined probability 1 in 107 • Tracked over time 1/10 False Alarm probability 1 in 100 Million If Camera A was a single camera security system the false alarm rate would be 1 in 100 HarmAlarm versus single camera 1,000,000:1

  11. Advanced Threat Detection • Lying-in-wait (home, parking lots, etc.) • Stalking (a two object relationship over time) • Loitering (peeping tom) • Man-down (many causes) • Crowd recognition (gathering targets) • Profiling for signs of anxiety (retail theft, airports, etc.) • Child-at-risk (child unattended) • Animal threat (situation unique) • Perimeter enhancement (home evasion) • Agriculture (threat: human & natural) • Natural events (fire, wind, water, slides, etc.) Threats defined at site (End-user specific)

  12. Example

  13. Camera A ------ Camera B

  14. Geometric Relationships Location Camera A Location Camera B Distance Between Cameras R2 R1 Target Location Known Set-up value Cameras Position & target Location Range computations, R1 & R2

  15. R1 & R2 calculations require information from both cameras Both cameras, the 3 D solution is patent protected HarmAlarm is not a flat earth extrapolation (competitors) HarmAlarm equations are closed form scientific updated at video frame rates. Powerful “best estimating” algorithms based upon target signature properties. Equations shown have been simplified from their spherical trigonometry form. R1 = (Distance Between Cameras) x Sin (camera B angleo)/ (Sin (180o – {camera B angleo} – {camera A angleo}) R2 = (Distance Between Cameras) x Sin (camera A angleo)/ (Sin (180o – {camera B angleo} – {camera A angleo}) Color coding is matched to HarmAlarm Geometry relationships HarmAlarm Slant Range Calculations, for R1 & R2

  20. The Future

  21. 21 Century: The Security Age

  22. Shared Data BaseSynergism: Where the sum exceeds the parts Shared communications Common Data Base • Identification, from all sources • Verification, by all sources • Correlation, linking of events • Multi-discipline Threat Detection, Tracking actions over time Recognized by combined systems • Threat Alert notification Multi-discipline alert • Responder Information Situation awareness Identify threat elements Updated in real time simultaneous broadcast Consolidation of Enterprise Security Vendor support: Currently overlapping, redundant, holes, and confusing Simplify: Authority and responsibility with a single authority

  23. Green Benefits

  24. Green Applications • History • “Turn off the light” application, specific • Make control rooms more efficient, general

  25. The Past • Old practices, formed when energy was cheap and abundant. • Wasting energy is an economic and environmental problem. • A major use of electrical energy is for lighting. • One of the common uses of night time illumination is for security. • Security experts define “light to be the enemy of darkness and the ally of safety”. • Our Expert: • Bad things happen when there is no light. • Evil exists under the cloak of darkness. • If you want safety, you must have light. But, How true are his statements?

  26. Military Legacy • In the 1970’s US military recognized an army with “night vision” had a significant advantage on the battlefield. • Gerard Erasmus: • "In the valley of the blind, the one-eyed man is King." Our version is, • “In field of Security, the night vision system is King”. • In the early 90’s Infrared Technology was designated by the US Government as a “dual use” technology • This opened the door for commercial applications. • The US Government still controls the technology but commercial applications have been sanctioned and approved. • Aviation • Medicine • And now, Security

  27. Commercial Car LotApplication • 70,000+ cars lots in the USA. • They operate and deploy strong illumination. • It is estimated they consume greater 500 KMWHs per day. • ~40% of the power is consumed after the close of business. • Millions of dollars per day with a large carbon footprint. • Car theft rings are sophisticated. • They targeted certain car models • To be dissembled, crated, and shipped to foreign markets within hours of the theft. • The car thief is not just stealing, they are filling an order. • When a car lot is lighted, the total time from entering, locating the car, and departing is less than 5 minutes for a professional thief. • We would like to increase the response window to > 10 minutes

  28. Darkness: The new Ally of Security • HarmAlarm places the scene in total darkness. • Darkness slows down the actions and movements of the thief. • The search takes longer.   • The thief is identified when he enters the surveillance field. • Early detection • Actions are slowed down • The time window is lengthen • The opportunity for apprehension is increased.   • Infrared technical performance is superior to visual cameras, stable signature. • The stable IR signature makes a positive unambiguous identification possible, Inherent Thermal Contrast (ITC). • Better performance, lower cost of ownership, and Green Benefits

  29. Enterprise Value

  30. Enterprise Value • Reduces Operating costs • Lowering operating costs will increase market size • Increase Revenues from: • Retrofits to existing security systems • Expansion of existing market or market share • New Applications, leading to new markets • Revenue Sources • Sale or Lease of HarmAlarm components • Wireless service monthly fees • Response provider services (potential) • Five year forecast
