Abu Dhabi Airport Company Uses Network Cameras To Monitor Air Traffic Movement

  • Sep 11, 2008

Lumenera Corp., together with Searidge Technologies, recently announced a partnership to provide specialized cameras for Searidge’s suite of airport surface movement control solutions.

Searidge Technologies selected Lumenera’s proven Le165 network camera as the imaging technology of choice for its IntelliDAR system. The system requires a camera with extreme low-light capabilities and outstanding image quality to capture video data under vast lighting conditions. This megapixel CCD camera provides outstanding clarity and image detail, enhancing the performance of IntelliDAR video analytic functionalities.

Searidge Technologies was recently contracted by Abu Dhabi Airport Company to supply the IntelliDAR system using Lumenera’s Le165 network cameras, to provide surface surveillance capabilities enabling air traffic controllers to have full situational and visual awareness of the airport’s newly constructed runway. This non-cooperative surveillance system detects and monitors traffic movements on the airport surface providing radar-like target information.

“We’re excited to work with Searidge Technologies on such a vital airport ground surveillance project.” said Greg Bell, vice president of business development for Lumenera. “We look forward to building upon an already successful partnership, collectively providing industryleading solutions that satisfy unique application requirements.”

“Lumenera’s support was exceptional in meeting our quick integration needs.”said Moodie Cheikh, president of Searidge Technologies. “Lumenera’s IP cameras are the perfect complement to Searidge’s IntelliDAR system, ultimately increasing the airport’s overall safety and seamlessness of its operations.”

  • Gaining a Competitive Edge

    Ask most companies about their future technology plans and the answers will most likely include AI. Then ask how they plan to deploy it, and that is where the responses may start to vary. Every company has unique surveillance requirements that are based on market focus, scale, scope, risk tolerance, geographic area and, of course, budget. Those factors all play a role in deciding how to configure a surveillance system, and how to effectively implement technologies like AI. Read Now

  • 6 Ways Security Awareness Training Empowers Human Risk Management

    Organizations are realizing that their greatest vulnerability often comes from within – their own people. Human error remains a significant factor in cybersecurity breaches, making it imperative for organizations to address human risk effectively. As a result, security awareness training (SAT) has emerged as a cornerstone in this endeavor because it offers a multifaceted approach to managing human risk. Read Now

  • The Stage is Set

    The security industry spans the entire globe, with manufacturers, developers and suppliers on every continent (well, almost—sorry, Antarctica). That means when regulations pop up in one area, they often have a ripple effect that impacts the entire supply chain. Recent data privacy regulations like GDPR in Europe and CPRA in California made waves when they first went into effect, forcing businesses to change the way they approach data collection and storage to continue operating in those markets. Even highly specific regulations like the U.S.’s National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) can have international reverberations – and this growing volume of legislation has continued to affect global supply chains in a variety of different ways.

    A8V MIND

    Hexagon’s Geosystems presents a portable version of its Accur8vision detection system. A rugged all-in-one solution, the A8V MIND (Mobile Intrusion Detection) is designed to provide flexible protection of critical outdoor infrastructure and objects. Hexagon’s Accur8vision is a volumetric detection system that employs LiDAR technology to safeguard entire areas. Whenever it detects movement in a specified zone, it automatically differentiates a threat from a nonthreat, and immediately notifies security staff if necessary. Person detection is carried out within a radius of 80 meters from this device. Connected remotely via a portable computer device, it enables remote surveillance and does not depend on security staff patrolling the area. 3
