IP Video Providing Site-Wide Surveillance At Mexico Automotive Plant

  • Oct 27, 2008
IndigoVision’s complete IP video solution is providing site-wide surveillance for Faurecia’s new automotive plant in Mexico. Located in a high-technology industrial park in San Luis Potosí, the new plant manufactures seats and other automotive components for many of the world’s top car makers. The Faurecia Group has 190 plants in 28 countries around the globe and employs 60,000 people.

The IP system was designed and installed by IndigoVision’s local partner Multielectron SA de CV and consists of both PTZ dome and fixed cameras covering the exterior of the plant as well the general manufacturing areas inside.

“Following analysis of similar IP video systems we chose IndigoVision’s solution because of its superior performance and video quality,” said Arturo Gutiérrez, Faurecia’s HSE coordinator. “To provide the local authorities and police with high-quality evidential video exported from the system following an incident was another important requirement.”

CCTV monitoring workstations running ‘Control Center’, IndigoVision’s IP video and alarm management software, are used throughout the plant to view live and recorded video from the cameras.

The distributed nature of IndigoVision’s IP Video system means that any system component can be located anywhere on the network. The system is thus very scalable, allowing additional cameras or workstations to be easily and cost-effectively added in the future, unlike traditional analog CCTV systems. ‘

Control Center’ is also license-free enabling workstations to be deployed for no more than a cost of an entry-level PC. This flexibility has allowed Faurecia to install CCTV workstations not only for the security team in the main control room but also for the Plant Manager, HR department and the maintenance team.

The video is recorded continuously at 4SIF, 30fs for 15 days using an IndigoVision Windows NVR server with 1.5 Terabytes of storage and NAS backup, all located in the control room. With the correct access permissions any ‘Control Center’ workstation in the plant can view and analyze recorded video from the NVR.

  • 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

  • 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.
