Spectral-360: Ground Breaking Technology for Next Generation Security Systems

The Centre for Information, Intelligence and Security Systems (CIISS) at Staffordshire University has developed breakthrough technology (Spectral-360) which emulates human vision to detect objects in the presence of severe imaging conditions. It enhances the effectiveness of CCTV systems by improving object detection, which is a critical component of video analysis software. Field-testing has demonstrated the ability of the new technology to detect events missed by even the most vigilant of operators. Chris Bailey, Managing Director Techex Ltd, one of Europe’s leading professional video solutions provider, said, “The robustness of this technology to illumination variations is just outstanding. I am delighted to see the calibre of work produced by the CIISS R&D team. This technology addresses the key problems that dictate the overall performance of any video analysis solution. The ability of Spectal-360 to detect objects in challenging conditions can make missed detection of crucial events a thing from the past”.
