Parking Facility Locks Down with Integrated Security Management

Background
Based on current statistics, roughly 80% of the criminal acts at shopping centers and business offices occur in the parking lot. Therefore, Banqiao train station, founded in 1901 in Banqiao (Chinese: 板橋), New Taipei City, Taiwan, recently took the necessary measure to upgrade its 3-story indoor parking facility's video surveillance system. The facility upgraded to an IP-based video system, consisting of LILIN network cameras to identify license plate numbers, perform people identification, crime prevention, and event detection. The Banqiao station parking structure has the capacity to park more than 1,000 vehicles, and it is definitely the top priority for the station management team to have reliable guards and a video surveillance system in place to detect intruders, observe activity, inspect vehicles, and observe illegal entry attempts.

LILIN, the Preferred Choice in Video Surveillance
LILIN surveillance solutions provide the best network security cameras and surveillance server systems to secure life and property in parking lots. LILIN products provide security while performing territorial control and the real-time accounting of free parking spaces and transport vehicles. Travelers or visitors who park at Banqiao station get the peace of mind they deserve through the support of LILIN's surveillance solution.

Solution & Installation
What the Banqiao parking facility needed was a security system with multiple cameras located throughout the indoor parking lot that could be remotely monitored and recorded in the main building. Strategically installing LILIN surveillance cameras (CMG178H, IPR428ESX3, PIH-0442N4.3, and PIH-0542P3.6) at blind spots, key access points, and back gates, the system is able to provide the extra visual security required to deter vandalism or theft.

Results & Benefits
The entire LILIN parking lot operation triggers notifications when equipment failures occur, saving a significant amount of labor cost. Lot usage and activity can be easily ascertained by viewing both live cameras and historical archives captured on site. Video data can also be used for law enforcement, as well as enhancing parking facility security as the whole.

  • Enhances overall parking lot security
  • Saves labor cost
  • Increases operational efficiencies
  • Video data can be used for law enforcement

  • The Evolution of IP Camera Intelligence

    As the 30th anniversary of the IP camera approaches in 2026, it is worth reflecting on how far we have come. The first network camera, launched in 1996, delivered one frame every 17 seconds—not impressive by today’s standards, but groundbreaking at the time. It did something that no analog system could: transmit video over a standard IP network. Read Now

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
