PureTech Systems Awarded Major Contract to Provide AI Technology to Help Secure Critical Infrastructure Waterway

  • Sep 26, 2024

PureTechSystems Inc., provider of geospatial AI-boosted video analytics for wide-area perimeter and border security, is pleased to announce that it has been awarded a substantial contract to provide its technology to protect the infrastructure of an international maritime waterway. This award highlights PureTech's continued leadership in safeguarding our Nation’s critical transportation infrastructure through time-tested technology and autonomous security solutions.

The award comes after an extensive successful pilot performed by the infrastructure management company. As part of the award, PureTech Systems will deploy its patented location-based AI video analytics software, PureActiv, across multiple locations to detect unauthorized access as ships travel through the waterway system. By leveraging PureTech’s AI-boosted perimeter intrusion detection and autonomous surveillance capabilities, the management company will benefit from real-time situational awareness, enhanced threat detection, and a dramatic decrease in nuisance alarms. These capabilities that allow the customer to utilize their existing cameras will significantly bolster the security of critical assets, ensuring they remain secure and operational in today’s evolving threat landscape.

“This contract is a testament to our ability to protect critical infrastructure with precision, reliability and near-zero nuisance alarms,” said Larry Bowe, CEO of PureTech Systems Inc. “We are proud to provide autonomous, AI-driven security solutions that deliver actionable intelligence and superior threat detection capabilities in this new, challenging environment while seamlessly integrating into existing security system infrastructure.”

PureTech Systems’ AI-powered PureActiv software is known for its seamless integration with a wide range of cameras, detection technologies, VMSs, and PSIMs, ensuring comprehensive security coverage for facilities such as power plants, utilities, seaports, railways, and more.

With a continued focus on innovation and security, this contract further solidifies PureTech’s position as the industry leader in autonomous perimeter and infrastructure protection software.

    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.
