PureTech Systems’ Announces Successful Deployments with Siklu

  • Dec 03, 2020

Siklu and PureTech have deployed perimeter protection at high security power generation plants across the United States

PureTech Systems announced today the successful deployments of PureActiv® software with the Siklu gigabit wireless network.

The PureTech real-time AI video processing system relies on receiving low latency, quality, error free video streams.  The Siklu mmWave systems are the perfect complement as they provide gigabit capacities and highly flexible, rapid deployment of a network connecting cameras where ever they may be to the PureTech solution.

For security reasons the client cannot be discussed however, the combined solution of the Siklu network with the PureActiv software ensures the highest probability of detection at these U.S. based power generation plants. Additionally, the PureActiv software monitors the quality of the network and if a network link goes down, the PureActiv software immediately notifies the user in the event the loss is due to a perimeter attack.  TSG Solutions Inc., a Continental Mapping Company, is the integrator that architected and deployed the perimeter protection solution.

“As the wireless network for the security systems at Nuclear Power plants, this means you have to be rock solid and immune to jamming with down times measured in seconds per year,” Said Alex Doorduyn, vice president and general manager of Americas for Siklu.  “ Not only does the network have to be always on and available, it has to have the gigabit capacities new cameras and sensors demand.  The images and data that form the input for PureTech advanced algorithms have to be as they come from the camera without network latency or artifacts.”

“PureActiv® provides a fully integrated automated perimeter security system for the most critical facilities and infrastructure ” said PureTech Systems president Larry Bowe. “PureTech Systems software outperforms other analytics in detection range and accuracy of detection and classification, allowing security personnel to more efficiently and effectively identify threats.”

  • 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.
