An integrated solar-powered, wireless surveillance solution delivering secure video from perimeters, remote and difficult

to reach locations. 

An introduction to the platform

Solar | Wireless | Energy Management

Who We Are

Delivering cost-effective surveillance; with respect given to sustainability.

Founded in 2008, drawing from robust and proven technologies. Funded and backed by Motorola Solutions, Inc. and a consortium of private equity investors.

Hard-surface, legacy sites

Downtime and jurisdiction questions

Placement Dependencies

Operational as well as security risks

Difficult business case to justify

Need to monitor, protect, and assess risks

Remote Assets

Cannot justify any or adequate onsite human guards

No power or inconsistent power, no network

Temporary or sudden events create acute risks

Outdoor Risks

Surveillance Trends and Needs

4

Business Challenges and Pain Points

Trenching costs prohibitive

Business/traffic disruption can be significant

Time to deploy can be lengthy

Unforeseen issues may be common

5

Understanding the Problem

Cost per remote camera placement cannot presently be justified

Current thinking suggests these areas of risk are unreasonable to resolve

Viewing risk “hot spots” from a distance may not provide the right perspective or have adequate lighting

Proposals result in project over budget, delayed and/or abandoned.

Alternatives Have Limitations

Developed for specific site need

Camera typically 25+ Watts

Very large, heavy battery packs and solar panels

Permits required for pole

Wind load issues due to panel size

Custom and COTS Solar Kits Cameras on Light Poles

Camera locations restricted to light poles

Switched power/use of step down transformers

Network?

Cost per camera = $4-6K USD

Grid dependent

Evolving the MicroPower Solution

Reduce the camera draw on power Remove the power hungry components from camera, resulting in

significantly less power consumption than a typical surveillance camera (nominal ¾ Watt vs. 25 Watts)

Add a lithium-ion battery to camera enclosure

Batteries charged via solar panel, optimized using 22+ year history NASA global weather database

Fully charged battery yields 5 days of full streaming video operation with continuous recharging, self-sustaining, renewable energy

Communicate video in secure manner, line of sight Antenna provides TrustLinx™ unique wireless protocol

Up to distance of ½ mile (.8 km)

Designed for high-availability operation, “test and heal” technology

Pool cameras MicroPower hub manages up to 4+ cameras; maximum

30fps per hub From hub, connectivity to the network

Communicate to hybrid and existing systems Benefit of no additional investigator training

Benefit of existing VMS features

Benefit of legacy systems interoperability

Installs quickly and effectively — 3-year warranty on all components

8No Power, No Network, No Problem

Camera and transmitter designed for low power operation Enterprise-class line of sight and a 2.4 GHz wireless connection Indoor hub manages 4+ cameras and integrates with leading video management software

applications

Extends the use of video surveillance to sites that were previously unreachable by traditional surveillance systems.

9Remote Video Monitoring Applications

Tap into increased situational awareness by monitoring operations and security at remote sites from a central location where streaming video

is required.

6 rapidly deployed, integrated solar-powered wireless IR cameras with an antenna 2 hubs powered locally within an environmentally controlled building Integrated backhaul

line of sight video streaming up to 10+ miles Video management software driven features and functionality at central monitoring station

11Key Capabilities and Business Value

New perspective on evidence gathering

Time and money vs. trenching, cabling and conduit

Eliminates power requirements at “hot spot”

Reduces both capital investment and long-term operational expense (sustainable renewable energy)

Complete interoperability

Does not conflict with Wi-Fi installed (temporary or permanent)

Provides pixel per foot at “hot spot”

An extension of any open systems surveillance system.
