Metrasens Ultra Advanced Detection Technology Real-Time Integration with Milestone XProtect

First integration through App-Techs BTX (Bridge to XProtect)

  • Sep 08, 2023

Metrasens, a provider of advanced detection systems for security and safety applications, today announced its real-time integration of the Metrasens Ultra detection system into Milestone XProtect through the App-Techs BTX integration engine.

The integration classifies events and alarms from Metrasens Ultra’s five detection zones, as well as all five levels of signal strength, allowing system operators to easily identify and manage events.

Some of the key benefits of this integration include:

  • Association detection alarms to any number of cameras configured within XProtect.
  • Create situation-specific and/or site-specific alarm messages for easy understanding and action.
  • Trigger matrix views, PTX presents, and user-defined events.
  • Search detection metadata in the Smart Client.
  • Monitor the online/offline status of Metrasens Ultra.
  • Manage alarm state and tag alarms for alarm resolution.

“We are beginning to unlock more value in Metrasens Ultra, empowering security ecosystems by integrating into third party security management systems,” said Ron Long, vice president of Customer Success for Metrasens. “This is an exciting step along with App-Techs and the BTX client bridge to Milestone XProtect, a recognized leader in the video management software space.”

Metrasens will be demonstrating the integration at Global Security Exchange (GSX) at booth #2715, taking place at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center in Dallas, Texas from Sept. 11-13. For more information about Metrasens at GSX please visit here.

I have a picture somewhere in my garage collecting dust, of me sitting in the co-pilot seat. I know, old-man highlights, but still very cool. Read Now

  • Trust But Verify

    Today’s world is built on software—whether it is third-party applications, open-source libraries, in-house developed tools, operating systems, containers or firmware. Organizations worldwide depend on these diverse software components to power their operations, connect with customers, and drive innovation. However, this reliance on software comes with hidden dangers: the blind trust placed in these software products. Many companies assume that the software they purchase, and use is secure and free from vulnerabilities, but recent high-profile software supply chain breaches have proven otherwise. The reality is that every piece of software, no matter how reputable the source, increases the organization’s attack surface and poses new risks. Read Now
