Teledyne FLIR, Magos Systems Forge Technology Partnership to Elevate Perimeter Security

  • Sep 11, 2023

Teledyne FLIR, a security camera manufacturer, and Magos Systems, a provider in advanced AI-powered radar detection technology, proudly announce their technology partnership to introduce an innovative end-to-end Perimeter Intrusion Detection System (PIDS). Together, they unveil the integration with Teledyne FLIR's cutting-edge thermal security cameras and Magos' top-tier radar technology and AI software capabilities. This powerful fusion creates a comprehensive system for detecting, classifying, and tracking potential threats under any weather and lighting conditions, even in complex and cluttered environments.

“This partnership further solidifies our commitment to equipping security teams with solutions that empower them to protect their facilities and personnel in all conditions,” said Matt Strautman, Director of Global Business Development, Security, at Teledyne FLIR. “Magos Systems’ radar technology is renowned for its resolution and coverage in the security industry, making it an ideal complement to our expansive portfolio of perimeter protection solutions.”

As a global leader in thermal technology, Teledyne FLIR provides the highest-quality thermal security cameras in the marketplace and sets the industry standard for 24/7 perimeter monitoring. In addition to thermal cameras, FLIR is known for its first-class visible cameras, video management systems, industry-leading site planning tools and command and control software, catering to a wide spectrum of security applications.

“We believe that true innovation in security lies at the intersection of technology and effectiveness. Our partnership with Teledyne FLIR is a testament to our commitment to providing cutting-edge perimeter protection solutions that enhance security and redefine the industry's standards,” said Yaron Zussman, Magos Americas GM. “With the seamless integration of our MASS solution with FLIR’s visible and thermal PTZ cameras and VMS, the security teams get the most relevant alerts to react in real-time.”

Magos Systems’ radars offer wide coverage specifications, both in azimuth and in elevation, to enable complete site coverage, minimizing dead zones and detecting up to the installation pole. Magos’ technology also offers an exceptional range and angle resolution for outstanding detection performance, even in the most challenging weather and lighting conditions and in cluttered areas. By combining radar detection technology with AI algorithms for reliable video-based object classification, the complete solution reduces nuisance alarms to near zero without compromising threat detection capabilities.

When integrated with FLIR United VMS, a family of network video recorders built on a highly customizable open platform, Teledyne FLIR's pan-tilt-zoom thermal cameras and Magos Systems’ radars, alongside their advanced MASS software empower users with complete situational awareness. This early detection capability classifies potential threats long before they reach the perimeter and filters out false alarms triggered by wildlife and fauna. This proactive approach leads to enhanced reaction time to respond quickly to security events while reducing infrastructure, maintenance and manpower costs, allowing for a cost-effective end-to-end perimeter security solution for sites in various verticals.

  • 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.
