Hazard prevention at the focus of INTERSCHUTZ 2015

T

he countdown for INTERSCHUTZ 2015 in Hannover has begun. Exhibitors from 38 countries have already registered. Even with about a year left to go, the International Exhibition for Rescue Services, Fire Prevention, Disaster Relief, Safety and Security is already proving to be a major magnet, with a total of four exhibition halls and the open-air site almost fully booked.

This might even make it necessary to expand the site in order to meet demand. The show’s mixture of commercial and non-commercial exhibitors is entirely unique, and attendees can look forward to lots of added value thanks to a rich conference program featuring top experts and all the latest developments.

Two display categories will be much-enlarged in 2015: fire prevention and “non-police hazard prevention”. The ambulance service will figure prominently. In its role as a co-promoter of INTERSCHUTZ, the German Fire Protection Association (vfdb) is planning a ground-breaking Rescue Conference. In addition, the aid organization Johanniter UnfallHilfe has chosen INTERSCHUTZ 2015 as the venue for its annual symposium, which regularly attracts around 600 attendees.

A further new feature at INTERSCHUTZ 2015 is the central platform for rescue associations and organizations in Hall 26. This will be accompanied by a forum for product and company presentations. “Above

all, the exhibitors and visitors will have an opportunity to build on their existing contacts and exchange ideas,” emphasizes Dr. Jochen Köckler, a member of the Managing Board at Deutsche Messe AG. There are similar plans for the other sections of INTERSCHUTZ. A central meeting place (located in Hall 13) is planned for the “Fire Prevention section”, while “Safety and Security” will have its own meeting place in Halle 12. INTERSCHUTZ 2015 will also host “CR!ISE – Critical Infrastructure Event”, which will take place under the umbrella of the German Fire Protection Association’s annual conference.

British Safety Council event to focus on targeted prevention & intervention strategies for employers

T

he British Safety Council will be hosting its opening seminar in its 2015 events programme at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester on Thursday 26 February 2015. The seminar will focus on specific areas within health and safety that are of continuing concern, as the HSE’s statistics show – occupational health and musculoskeletal disorders. There will also be updates on Fee for Intervention and sentencing guidelines along with an environmental update on ISO14001 and energy.

Joscelyne Shaw, Head of Policy at the British Safety Council, explains: “In a recent article in our magazine, Safety Management, Professor Stephen Bevan at the Work Foundation stated that: ‘A healthy workforce is a productive workforce, so the ‘payback’ from investments in early interventions to reduce their impact is likely to be substantial’.

The British Safety Council actively seeks to promote this approach to businesses – our members and others alike. We would like to invite managers, business owners, HR directors and others with similar

14 |

responsibilities to join us at this morning seminar in Manchester.

We will be looking at priority areas within the occupational health and safety agenda with experts in these fields who will share their knowledge and insight.”

Dr. Tim Marsh, Director at RyderMarsh, will be talking about “The Person in Safety Culture”. He said: “Consideration of the role of the individual, psychology and behaviour in safety and health management is fundamental. Everyone in an organisation contributes to its culture whether they want to or not. So often managers are caught up with targets and in the process can focus attention on obstacles and constraints and forget about the opportunities that talking about safety and health with their workers offer them. The question is how to change the conversation to empower, recognising those who are leaders, even if they don’t want to think about themselves as such, and how they can facilitate positive change.”

Steve Sumner OBE, Director of Sumner Associates, who will also be speaking during the morning, said: “There is some good best practice approaches on managing occupational health and employee wellbeing.

For example, there is increasing awareness of how poor management of occupational health risks, such as stress, can impact

DECEMBER 2014 | INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW

upon the effectiveness and productivity of a business – the impact of this can be associated health conditions such as depression and anxiety as well as other related health-damaging behaviours, such as excessive alcohol consumption, and presenteeism. It is important to understand what steps, such as the provision of occupational health support services and employee assistance programmes, are available. It is as much about prevention as well it is about identifying and encouraging healthier lifestyle choices to staff.”

Mark Thomas, a health and safety consultant, will be speaking about slips and trips, arguing that it should remain firmly on the health and safety radar. “Even after 40 years of the landmark Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, the figures surrounding the number of incidents from slips, trips and falls mean that this should remain a focus for organisations. It is an aspect that can be found in all businesses regardless of the size or complexity of the site and number of workers – so in that sense is a real cross-cutting health and safety issue. It is also an issue that highlights the importance of recognising the risks as much as remembering to refresh the issue with workers.”

indal Institute of Medical Sciences (JIMS) with its multiple lush green lawns and patient friendly environment isspread over sprawling area of 14.5 Acres in Hisar, Haryana. In 2008, the hospital added a cancer wing- O.P. Jindal Institute of Cancer and Research. It is a 600 bedded multispecialty Hospital catering to thousands of people in rural Haryana, Punjab & adjoining areas of Rajasthan.

Threat Perceptions The major step in the risk assessment process is threat assessment. Historical information is the primary source for a threat assessment. The common threats are criminal threats, theft, physical disputes among patients, unruly behavior of patients’ families or friends, insufficient hygiene and so on.However, othert hreats may emerge without a historical context. For example, an Ebola outbreak is a potential emerging threat to hospitals.

Mission The modern healthcare facility faces increasing crime and economic challenges in protecting people, property and sensitive data. Securing the healthcare environment is a challenging and continual effort for mosthealthcare security managers, who face unique challenges in balancing the opencampus environment with the protection needs of the hospital’s patients, employees, and other assets.

By conducting a comprehensive riskassessment, O.P. Jindal Institute of Cancer and Research hospital security managers prioritized identified risks and developed an effective hospital security program. The video surveillance and its enhanced functions have to

play a major and challenging role. The general objective was to mitigate any risk to a manageableand acceptablelevel.

Challenges Security and safety at healthcare facilities are important for both quality healthcare and public safety.Hospitals and clinics are a safe haven for those in physical or emotional need, and increasingly seen as aplace of refuge in the event of a large-scale emergency such as a natural disaster or terrorist attack. Forthese reasons and others, more and more people use hospitals as their first source for help. Hence, it isessential that healthcare security staff not only consider facility security and safety, but also take aninterest in broader public safety.

CP PLUS wanted CCTV to protect people - whether in buildings or OPD, Wards, or ICU, car parks – & the team had to interfere with the 24x7 site as little as possible. CP Plus took the challenge & continues with interruptions. Providing security for hospitals involves more thanthe best choice of products and features-it alsorequires best practices!

Solution In its quest to provide advanced patient care, Hospital management considered security a top priority. They finally zeroed in to CP PLUS surveillance security solutions for High Definition (HD) and intelligent solutions.

CP PLUS Network Video Management Software andmegapixel cameras deliver superior image quality andmaximum coverage. “We complemented the physical and access based security at the hospital with the performance and image clarity of the CP PLUS cameras for round-the-clock surveillance andinvestigations as incidents occur”, said Yogesh Dutta, CP PLUS.

CP PLUS to implement H.265 for reduced bandwidth needs

C

P PLUS Teknologix Labs is set to implement H.265/HEVC standard in its upcoming range of video surveillance devices. An immediate successor standard to H.264, H.265 standard offers various improvements over H.264. H.265 implementation has generated huge optimism given industry’s struggle with shortage of bandwidth, spectrum, storage, and imminent need to take growing HD content for multi-platform delivery.

A video coding format is a content representation format for storage or transmission of digital video content (such as in a data file or bitstream). Examples of video coding formats include MPEG-2 Part 2, MPEG-4 Part 2, H.264 (MPEG-4 Part 10), HEVC, etc.

The existing standard H.264 offers 40%-50% bitrate reduction over MPEG-2, yet it has limitation of delivering HD content for broadcast and online. With the 4K/UltraHD cameras being introduced as a revolution in video technology, the need for improved H.264 standard was overdue. H.265 meets the Ultra HD rendering requisite over even lesser bandwidth.

H.265 or HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding) doubles the data compression ratio compared to H.264/MPEG-4 at the same level of video quality. Alternatively, it can

encoded sequence at same bitrate.

• Ability to offer higher quality video for bandwidth constrained mobile networks.

provide substantially improved video quality at the same bitrate.

It can support 8K Ultra HD or resolutions up to 8192x4320.

With the implementation of H.265 standards, CP PLUS plans to introduce a range of video surveillance devices that support H.265 decoding & deliver its benefits over 40% lesser bandwidth use.

The potential benefits offered by H.265 standards are as below: • Accelerate demand and sale of 4K/Ultra-HD screens which has been largely limited due to large price difference and absence of UHD content. H.265 can offset the second challenge.

• Huge opportunities from reduced bitrate requirements enabling broadcasters and broadcast & online vendors to bundle more channels/content on existing delivery mediums.

• Extend far greater video quality experience compared to H.264

• Realize differentiated and premium 4K content, multiview encoding etc.

Godrej Security Solutions launches video door phone with calling facility

G

odrej Security Solutions (GSS), one of the leading providers of comprehensive security solutions in India, announced the launch of its new video door phone (VDP) SEETHRU 7.

This 7” screen VDP has a TV out option, can support multiple outdoor units, indoor monitors, CCTV cameras and contains a removable SD card for recording images/video.

GSS has a long standing history of introducing innovation using consumer market insights. In the development of SEETHRU 7, the needs of the target audience were identified - as the need to be able to communicate with people who visited when no one was home to shield the elderly and children from unknown visitors. Additional insights were identified, such as, ability to answer the VDP without having to walk to the indoor unit at the door, ability to retrieve the stored images etc. The features of SeeThru7 hasbeen a result of understanding these consumer needs giving a “control” to the home owner when away.

On the occasion of the launch, Mr Mehernosh B. Pithawalla, HeadMarketing, Godrej Security Solutions commented, “We are

proud to launch such evolving products such as the current SEETHRU 7 video Door Phone which epitomizes Godrej Security Solution’s vision to provide innovative solutions for home security. This product not only ensures home safety but also provides additional benefits for the customer when he is not at home.”

SEETHRU 7 utilises the already existing landline of the user which allows him to talk to visitors even when he away. The user only has to switch on the ‘follow me’ mode which will prompt the VDP to dial in a pre-fed telephone number

whenever it is buzzed. Conventional VDP’s generally just click a photograph and store them for reference purpose.

SEETHRU comes with an option to view the feed on a television, eliminating the need to walk to the unit. Upto 3 indoor monitors are supported by the device which extends the monitoring capabilities into the bedroom, kitchen, study etc.

There is an additional intercom/call forwarding facility amongst these

| INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW

units. The VDP can also be used in multi-entrance accommodations such as villas and monitor critical areas of the residence by supporting a maximum of 4 CCTV camera.

Additional security features include capturing an image of the visitor whenever the VDP is activated.

These images are now retrievable by the use of a removable SD card. The CCTVs installed can also have an integrated software based motion detection system which would record a small clip whenever there is motion in front of the camera.

With a stylish touch panel, the SEETHRU 7 serves a dual function of addressing the security need of the user as well as adds an aesthetic appeal to the house owing to its contemporary design. The product is available at all leading electronic retail stores and e-commerce websites for a price of Rs. 18999/-.

Manufacturing, Defence, Education, Govt Heritage, Infrastructure and Residential are the areas we focus.

Q. Could you brief us the Indian & global scenario of Perimeter Security industry?

In India, major forces driving the perimeter Security industry are increase in threat level, government regulations, high technological advancements and reduction in manpower cost. The significance of the perimeter security has increased, as the world is not becoming any safer to live. Any attack/ mishap at critical infrastructures, or any other building/ public places can lead to great economic and human losses.

Based on Security news media, the global perimeter security market is expected to grow from $11.6 billion in 2013 to $17.7 billion in 2018, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 8.8% from 2013 to 2018. The North American region is expected to have the largest market share, which will be succeeded

by Asia-Pacific, in 2018. Due to increase in the laws and regulations, high technological advancements, and also the increasing instances of threats, an increasing trend in implementation of perimeter security solutions in the emerging Brazil, Russia, China, and India (BRIC) countries has been noted.

Q. According to you what are the factors affecting the Perimeter Security business?

PS is Capex. Hence, organizations do contemplate while taking decision.

This consumes time. Secondly, Govt is the largest buyer. The procedural delay from AIP to implementation is an area of concern.

World over, implementation of EF for PS is acknowledged fact, while in India despite several successful installations for strategically sensitive establishments across the country, the ‘psychological’ fear wrt the term “electric fence”. Many countries have initiated government agencies to directly manage the security of critical infrastructure usually through the Ministry of Interior/ Home Affairs, which India lacks.

Economic slowdown has proved to be a hurdle in the growth of perimeter security solutions market. With revenues declining in most of the industries, organizations are unwilling to incur additional costs for such security solutions. Moreover, the false alarm rates in such substandard security solutions cause nuisance & lead to unnecessary protective measures & panic.

Q. What are the trends that are driving the Perimeter Security industry?

The need for perimeter security is increasing due to a constant risk of terrorist attacks, large-scale illegal immigration, increased crime and violent anti-government protests as a result of international and local

DECEMBER 2014 | INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW

issues. The demand for security is increasing as these breaches have raised criticism.

The demand is not limited to any extent; it is a necessity now-a-days for all the verticals including Transportation; Critical infrastructures such as nuclear plants, chemical industries, oil and gas facilities; Commercial buildings; Govt. and Defence; and for all Sensitive areas, has also shown increase in the demand for security technologies and systems where Integrated security solutions are being developed / deployed to meet the demands of security. Another factor working towards growth of this market is the need to reduce manpower costs. The accuracy and availability offered by technological perimeter solutions provide viable applications in various industries maintaining critical sites.

“There is a need to enhance the safety and security of Surat City based on its large population and concentration of key industries, such as diamond, textile, engineering, and oil and gas,” says Mr. Rakesh Asthana, Police Commissioner, Surat City. “The Surat Safe City Project is an investment designed to help ensure the safety of our people and bring a greater awareness of security amongst our citizens. This project of the government of Gujarat has been executed successfully as a public partnership by the Surat Police Commissionerate,” along waith Surat Traffic Education Trust, Innovative Telecom and Verint as a technology partner.

The initial phase of the Surat Safe City Project consisted of 100+ closed circuit television (CCTV) cameras covering all major traffic junctions along with critical entry and exit points in the city. In subsequent phases, the Surat City Police Department and Surat Traffic Education

Trust plan to extend the coverage in the city, which has a population of approximately forty five lakh (or about 4,500,000), by integrating the project with the proposed state government surveillance & command center network in Gandhinagar. The city administration plans to increase the number of surveillance locations to 5,000 by the end of the project implementation.

At the heart of the project is the deployment of a state-ofthe-art command, control and communications center (C3) with a 280 square foot “video wall” that can centrally monitor, aggregate & analyze multiple surveillance feeds in police headquarters to support the proactive physical security management of the city. The center includes a city mapping capability that provides reports on physical security and fire alarm and water levels, along with evacuation and disaster recovery plans.

“We are honored to be part of the Surat Safe City Project, which is designed to provide a more secure environment for citizens,” says Manish Shah, VP South East Asia, Verint. “Verint solutions help public safety organizations meet a range of modern challenges, from evolving communications media to homeland security concerns, and in doing so, help improve performance and protect people, property and assets.”

The task of implementing a

| INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW

state-of-the-art command, control and communications center (C3) was successfully executed by Surat Traffic Education Trust in partnership with the Surat City Police Department. To support its focus, it invested in Verint’s Nextiva® Video Management Software™ and Nextiva Physical Security Information Management™ solutions in September 2012, taking the technology live last month as part of the overall Surat Safe City Project rollout. According to the organizations, these capabilities serve as critical components of the city’s overall command center plan that’s focused on proactive approaches to help identify, analyze and take action on security and criminal threats.

“Surat City is a commercial hub for India’s diamond and textile markets. As such, the city is a highsecurity risk area for potential theft and crime. To help proactively iden tify and neutralize such threats, the city administration and police department initiated the Safe City Project to increase awareness and security amongst the people and help ensure 24x7 surveillance,” adds Mr. Mihir Chahwala, Director, Innovative Telecom & Software Pvt Ltd., a leading security solutions company based in Western India, and a Verint partner.

Genetec announces next generation AutoVu Sharp & SharpX automated license plate recognition cameras

Additional processing capacity enables new advanced vehicle analytics & near-360⁰ ALPR capture on mobile vehicles

G

enetec™, developer of unified IP security solutions announced the next generation of its IP-based automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) cameras, the AutoVu Sharp and AutoVu SharpX. The new cameras enable the concurrent detection of license plates from a greater variety of models, capturing license plates from different states or countries on the same system. Customers can also benefit from access to new vehicle behavior and characteristic analytics, and the ability to deploy up to four high-resolution ALPR cameras on a vehicle, for near-360° capture. The new AutoVu Sharp and SharpX cameras are available immediately via the Genetec global network of certified integrators and channel partners.

The latest Sharp and SharpX go beyond ALPR to offer advanced vehicle characteristic and behavioral analytics, and can analyze a scanned vehicle to identify its make and the license plate state or country of origin. The direction and speed of vehicles can also be detected with a single ALPR camera, allowing endusers to collect and review trends over time and automatically detect suspicious behaviors.

“We believe that the value of ALPR extends beyond license plate analysis, and our latest generation of AutoVu Sharp and SharpX cameras is a gateway that offers those extended features for identifying vehicle trends and patterns,” said Stephan Kaiser, AutoVu General Manager, Genetec. “Whether in a city setting or on a private property, the advanced analytics in the Sharp and SharpX introduce important new

methodologies for detecting complex automotive behaviors, along with powerful new data mining possibilities,” added Kaiser.

The AutoVu SharpX also leverages additional available processing power that offers new configuration options. Customers can now deploy up to four high-resolution SharpX camera units on a single processing unit, decreasing equipment costs and simplifying installation and maintenance. Mobile users can achieve near-360° ALPR coverage, to capture more license plates located around the patrol vehicle.

The SharpX is also now available in a new portable mobile kit, containing up to four cameras, a pre-wired processing unit and all necessary cables, allowing users to move their ALPR equipment rapidly from one vehicle to another as required.

The IIHMR university observes world patient safety day Drives an Awareness for Quality Management and Patient Safety in Hospitals

P

atient safety is a new healthcare discipline that emphasizes the reporting, analysis, and prevention of medical error that often leads to adverse healthcare events. To converge this practice one of the globally recognized and leading healthcare research organizations’ of the country, the IIHMR University, observed the World Patient Safety Day on 9th December, 2014. The University conducted an awareness campaign to spread the word amongst medical fraternity dealing directly with patients and their biggest threat worldwide on unsafe medical care.

Dr. S.D Gupta, President of IIHMR University said, “Patient Safety is of prime importance due to an increasing number of patient safety issues. Globally, more than 23 million years of healthy lives are lost every year, also known as Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) or the sum of years of potential life lost due to ill-health, disability or early death.

According a recent research given by an Indian Doctor from the Harvard

www.ind-safety.com

Public School about 43 million people are injured worldwide each year due to unsafe medical care. It has been identified that 234 million surgeries are conducted each year out of which the death rate is nearly 10% for major surgeries in developing countries.”

At IIHMR Campus, nearly 100 students and 25 faculties and other staff members organised a human chain in a shape of Red Cross to create awareness amongst all the medical fraternities and hospitals to bring in the best possible healthcare facilities and safety models to reduce the number of injuries caused to the patients every year. Additionally, few students also shared their research on Patient Safety under various themes – Medication Safety, Safety Goals and Patient for Patient Safety.

It is found that about two-third of injuries and harm to the patients occurs in low-and-middle income countries especially in India.

The number of DALYs lost has been more than twice as high in low-and-middle income countries that is about 15.5 million as it was in the high income countries which comprises of 7.2 million.

IIHMR University has been conducting a Management Development Program and WHO Fellowship Training Programmes on Patient Safety in Hospitals which highlights quality assurance & audit programmes reviews that have been adopted in various hospitals along with how care is delivered and compare it to a set of explicit criteria to determine whether standards are being met & how care can be improved.

isheye & panoramic cameras offer a 360 degree field of view. Unlike fixed cameras that narrow in on a specific spot or area, fisheye and panoramic cameras can cover a much wider area. A fisheye or panoramic camera can provide surveillance for broad areas like stores, warehouses, parking lots, stadiums, museums, concert halls, and ports.

Fisheye cameras create an image that replicates a circle or barrel, with a 180-degree or 360-degree wide field of view shown in the lens’ diameter circle. The curve of the fisheye lens can see in all directions at the same time, making it a practical surveillance camera choice for retail boutique stores, transportation vehicles, or office.

Fisheyes are usually flush mounted on a ceiling or wall to monitor and record a wide area, particularly at the centre point of the location. Fisheye cameras have a discrete shape so

they blend in exceptionally well with just about any background.

VMS platforms and NVRs can dewarp the fisheye image to form a flat, two-dimensional view.

A fisheye lens is an ultra wideangle lens that produces strong visual distortion intended to create a wide panoramic hemispherical image. Fisheye lenses achieve extremely wide angles of view by forgoing producing images with straight lines of perspective (rectilinear images), opting instead for a special mapping, which gives images a characteristic convex non-rectilinear appearance.

The angle of view of a fisheye lens is usually between 100 and 180 degrees.

Most manufactures use a 5MP sensor, or 2592 x 1944 pixels, and the image is then cropped to the size of the lens, or a circle within a rectangle.

The circle, therefore, has a diameter of 1944 pixels. Manufacturers

match the lens to the diameter of 2144, maximizing resolution and providing the very best 360-degree resolution.

Panoramic surveillance cameras use more than one image to create a 180-degree or 360-degree view of a large area of space.

Perfect for sporting events, parking lots, marinas, and department stores, panoramic security cameras can monitor and record all activity in its field of view. With these cameras it is possible to capture entire scenes with greater detail and in many directions. Megapixel panoramic view cameras generate highresolution images.

Advantages of 360 degree view cameras Traditional cameras with a narrow field-of-view & pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) need to be spread throughout the site. Therefore a greater number of cameras have to be installed which in turn requires much higher infrastructure and installation costs. Besides, PTZ cameras are positioned only to cover key areas and will only record where the PTZ is pointing, always leaving a number of blind spots & an inconclusive evidence trial.

Even though a PTZ can be programmed to respond to an event trigger it will arrive at, and show video after the event has taken place.

It is always desirable to be able to see

what happened before the alarm.

Dewarping Dewarping converts the original 360-degree or fisheye image view to a flat, two-dimensional image.

Dewraping can be done either at the camera or on the client-side application.

Dewarping on the client side allows for retrospective viewing, which enables the user to go back in time to view the total scene in its original form and then pan, tilt, and/or zoom within the 360-degree image as desired. This also makes it possible for multiple clients to view the same image, with different perspectives, concurrently.

Dewarping on the camera lets the customer create virtual views or narrow-field windows. However this creates blind spots similar to conventional cameras. Dewarping on the camera does not allow the ability to retrospectively view the 360-degree image, which is one of the biggest advantages of using 360-degree cameras. Further, similar to a conventional PTZ camera, all users need to view the same image at the same time, severely limiting its usefulness for remote viewing by different clients at the same time.

Typical Deployment Cameras with 360-degree views that are mounted onto walls can create a floor-to-ceiling bubble effect around the area of interest. Any event or activity, taking place within this

bubble, is visible to the camera, which is providing total situational awareness. This “blanket of eyes” can be replicated by using a number of narrow fields of view that are then stitched together. However this requires the use of multiple cameras which adds both cost and complexity whereas a single, multi-megapixel 360-degree view camera could achieve all of this.

To get the best possible situational awareness, the camera should be mounted in an area that is open and away from obstructions. Outdoors, 360-degree cameras work well when mounted on the corners of buildings using a parapet mount. When placed on an external corner of a building, the camera will, in effect, see around corners. When mounted on a light post in a parking lot, the field of view could be upwards of 300 feet in any direction. When mounted indoors, the appliations include a hallway crossing to show all four directions, or three directions of a “T” hallway.

With a panoramic view, two 180-degree views are displayed side by side to show both directions of a street or hallway with just one camera. Ceiling-mounted fisheye cameras are strategically positioned in the centre of a scene to maximize the video coverage of large areas.

Since the camera sees a complete 360-degree picture, 100% visual coverage with no blind spots is obtained and can provide a conclusive evidence trail.

Applications.

Retail In addition to surveillance, 360-degre technology provides additional marketing and business intelligence. It provides customers with marketing intelligence; they are no longer limited to counting people

as they come through the front door because it can also provide path analysis, queue counting and dwell time. Customers, in effect have “eyes” over an entire store. A store owner or manager sitting at home with his tablet PC can access not only the live images from the store, but view any part of the store at any time in the day by having access to 360 degree images, as if he was there, in person.

Gaming A 360-degree technology solution installed across the gaming floor, integrated with the VMS, can be used for forensic purposes. The cameras replaces traditional surveillance methods used by some casinos, in which hundreds of pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) cameras are deployed.

City Centres 360-degree technology can revolutionize the way cityscapes are surveyed. Four, six, or even eight cameras at intersections can be replaced with one 360 degree camera.

Other applications: • Parking Lots • Warehouses • Ports • Stadiums There are no limits on how 360-degree technology, coupled with the

See more with just one camera best dewarping technology can be used for effective video surveillance.

With retrospective dewarping and analysis this also offers the best forensic tool available.

Conclusions • Provides situational awareness with coverage that has no blind spots.

• Ability to retrospectively analyze a scene with speed and accuracy that no number of traditional cameras can. Enables the user to go back in time to view the total scene in its original form and then pan, tilt, and/or zoom within the 360-degree image as desired.

Users are able to go back in time and retrospectively review a scene after an event has happened. This cannot be done with a traditional, narrow field-of-view camera or with a motorized PTZ, because with this equipment, users can only record the spot where the camera is pointing.

• Can be deployed in a way that one camera replaces four to six (or even more) old cameras • Cost-effective solution that eliminates the need for mechanical pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) devices.

• Global interest in 360- degree cameras is growing exponentially • It is tomorrow’s technology today.

The new TINYON IP 2000 2-in-1 cameras from Bosch– a professional video security solution for homes & small businesses

F

eeling safe at home or in shops is not about acquiring the proper hardware. It is about knowing that alarms are triggered when needed and video data is recorded and safely stored, so that looking back at what happened is possible regardless of time and place. This kind of reassurance is given by the new TINYON IP 2000 WI (wireless) and TINYON IP 2000 PIR cameras from Bosch. Both models offer a cost-effective, reliable and comprehensive solution to easily set-up a professional system to secure homes or small businesses.

As 2-in-1 solutions, both models combine a built-in passive infrared (PIR) sensor and a 720p HD IP video surveillance camera. Even in complete darkness, the PIR sensor enables the detection of any motion within a five meter range. Depending on the light levels, a motion alarm triggers the built-in white light LED, ensuring the highest quality of video images known from Bosch.

This guarantees the easy identification of events or intruders. Besides motion detection, both cameras offer a built-in microphone to trigger

104 |

sound-based alarms. Together with the built-in loudspeaker, users can establish a remote two-way communication channel to address and verify possible security situations.

In case of an alarm, notifications are sent to users via text message or e-mail. Moreover, facial snapshots or video clips can be directly sent to pre-defined recipients or (freeof-charge) cloud accounts allowing for a fast alarm verification by or response of the users. Video data can either be stored in the cloud, on a network video recorder like the DIVAR IP 2000 recording solution from Bosch, or (depending on the camera model) on the built-in SD card. Thus, both models enable easy back-up solutions to ensure the safe storage of the relevant video data.

The efficient usage of available storage capacity and network infrastructure is guaranteed by the builtin intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction (iDNR) specific for Bosch IP cameras. With this, the cameras actively analyze the scene and distinguish between relevant information such as moving objects and image noise artifacts. With iDNR bitrates are reduced by up to 50 percent, significantly reducing storage requirements and network strain.

Since users cannot be everywhere all the time, both TINYON cameras are fully supported by the Bosch unique Dynamic Transcoding technology. In combination with the Bosch Video Security app, this technology offers smooth live video and instant access to HD images when needed, regardless of available bandwidth, everywhere & at any time.

The TINYON IP 2000 WI can

be used as a stand-alone solution or added to an existing security installation thanks to its wireless connection – easily installed and set-up via the WPS (WiFi Protected Setup) function, it is ideal for areas without evident network cabling. The TINYON IP 2000 PIR offers Power over Ethernet (PoE) functionality ensuring that audio, video and power all are transmitted via the network cable (CAT5).

Both TINYON IP cameras work seamlessly with a wide range of security software and recording solutions from Bosch and many other industry providers. This is backed by ONVIF conformance (Open Network Video Interface Forum) and the Integration Partner Program (IPP). Further details of the Bosch Integration Partner Program are available at ipp. boschsecurity.com.

Available from September 2014 onward, the new TINYON IP cameras come in either black or white with an attractive and stylish design.

Balancing privacy and security

T

he newspapers and news channels hound us with cases of rapes, murders, theft, terrorism, wars, nepotism, eve-teasing, harassments of all degrees etc. Are they trying to scare us or develop awareness amongst us? Well, they are a medium, telling us that each one of us as responsible citizens is accountable for our own safety and security.

Information & communication technologies have most certainly made life better. They have improved economic productivity, efficiency, and economic growth.

More personally, information digitization has created opportunities to grow, relate to others, and generally realize one’s creative potential. All these applications require information about us for providing better services. Facebook’s 1 billion active users, for example, share roughly 5 billion items a day, not counting the data Facebook collects about them.

Consider Google’s privacy policy. Google collects personal information, data about the services we use and how we use them, location information, data about

106 |

the software we use, storage data and other identifying information from other social media sites. That is an awful lot of information when all we want to do is make a call, or play a game. This does not pertain to Google alone as the trend is the same across the industry.

Surveillance is the secret watching of suspects’ private activities. In the past this usually involved following people, or going through their trash. These days it is mostly electronic, with the police and intelligence agencies listening into private phone conversations or reading emails (wiretapping).

Surveillance can also involve looking at bank account details to see where money comes and goes. All these are vital tools for tracking the actions of terrorists when they are planning attacks. The government cannot stand by and wait until criminal acts are carried out: it must stop attacks before they happen.

The government in Goa has recently installed CCTV cameras in the public area to ensure the maintenance of decorum in the city. Cameras are to be installed in the girl’s hostel in Uttar Pradesh to ensure the safety of girls. When does security become too much security and begins impinging on our basic rights to privacy and personal liberty? Citizens must be constantly aware so that the government and its organizations do not use security as a cover to gather unnecessary data about its citizens and to violate their citizens’ personal liberties.

As much as advancement in science and technology has enabled easy maintenance of security it has also raised questions on our privacy.

DECEMBER 2014 | INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW

Which is more important? How much privacy are we willing to give up for security? Can we even afford privacy in this age of insecurity?

Security versus privacy: It’s the battle of the century, or at least its first decade.

Not very long ago we considered all this information personal. But, as soon as we voluntarily shared it with others, the information stopped being truly private. Our behaviors have changed.

It should be no surprise that people choose security over privacy: 51 to 29 percent in a recent poll. Even if you don’t subscribe to Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, it’s obvious that security is more important. Security is vital to survival, not just of people but of every living thing. Privacy is unique to humans, but it’s a social need. It’s vital to personal dignity, to family life, to society. Privacy makes us uniquely human but does not support survival.

The President of The United States Of America, Barak Obama has rightly said “I think it’s important to recognize that you cannot have hundred percent security and also then have hundred percent privacy with zero inconvenience, we are going to have to make some choices as a society.”

Integrating Safety - the LANXESS way

H

ealth, Safety & Environment go hand in hand with Productivity and Profitability. According to a recent report by the International Labour Organization about 2 million deaths of the world’s 2.7 billion workers are attributable to occupational diseases and injuries and about 4% of GDP is lost due to that.

Worldwide, it has been proved that national economies and individual businesses with better standards of occupational safety and health (OSH) tend to be more successful. Moreover, several research studies have also clearly shown that an efficient and integrated management of occupational safety and health is closely related to business excellence and profitability. Needless to say, Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) is extremely important to emerging economies like India for sustaining the blistering economic growth and for enhancing quality of life as a whole.

While OHS is important for all nations, emerging economies like India and China have certain intrinsic complexities which make the

implementation of OHS initiatives a challenging issue. Accounting for nearly a third of the world’s population, these economies bear more than 80% of the global burden of occupational disease and injury.

OH & S is not a new concept for India. The Indian Association of Occupational Health (IAOH) has been in existence for since 1948. OH & S, by and large across the industrial spectrum in India has, however, been more an add-on activity than an integral part of business and management processes.

A trend-setter in not just its business operations but also in management processes, LANXESS has taken a quantum leap in integrating OH & S into its core strategy.

Xact employs a combination of proactive as well as reactive strategies - starting from being guided by safety policies and directives, to reaching a stage where it will be a habit, not only for personal safety but also for the safety of those working around us.

Xact is a life-cycle program that aims to create safety awareness

and develop comprehensive safety management, enabling systematic identification of unsafe behaviour and risks with appropriate counter measurements and ensuring regular checks by professional safety experts using cutting-edge technologies. The Xact program is based on 22 elements of safety, 12 of which are cultural elements. This implies that greater emphasis is laid on the behavioural aspects of all stakeholders towards improving safety.

Good safety focus has already brought in results – as of this Safety Week (March 4 to March 10, 2013), for instance the Jhagadia site has already celebrated 1000 days without lost time injury and 1160 days with zero MAQ*. At LANXESS, excellence is not an end in itself but an ongoing journey. And so is OH &S.

About LANXESS: LANXESS is a leading specialty chemicals company with sales of EUR 8.3 billion in 2013 and about 16,700 employees in 29 countries.

The company is currently represented at 52 production sites worldwide.

The core business of LANXESS is the development, manufacturing and marketing of plastics, rubber, intermediates and specialty chemicals.

LANXESS is a member of the leading sustainability indices Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI World and DJSI Europe) and FTSE4Good.
