The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has selected SightLogix outdoor video surveillance systems for deployment at the South Table Mountain campus. Video intrusion detection systems incorporating SightLogix Thermal SightSensor cameras and SightTracker Pan Tilt Zoom (PTZ) controllers will enhance perimeter security and visual verifications of intrusion for real-time situational awareness at both locations.
The mission of the wind energy research conducted at NREL's National Wind Technology Center (NWTC) is to collaborate with industry to further wind technology and to accelerate its commercialization in the marketplace.
The SightLogix automated outdoor video system accurately detects, provides assessment detail, and locates intrusions over large outdoor areas and perimeters in all weather and geographies. For the NREL security project, the systems utilize long-range Thermal SightSensors to detect intrusions along the perimeter, and GPS-based SightTracker controllers to automatically steer FLIR dual-head PTZ thermal imaging cameras to track and follow detected targets.
John Romanowich, President & CEO, SightLogix, said, "Our technology has been specifically designed to address outdoor challenges, including those of wind and solar energy generation facilities, which include high winds and wide operating temperature ranges. As a result, the Department of Energy can benefit from our solutions at these and other locations."
Recognized as a leader in intelligent video surveillance systems that provide a solid return on investment, SightLogix' combination of edge-based video analytics, long and wide area coverage using visible or thermal cameras and geo-spatial target tracking has been deployed around the world to meet the critical security needs of the transportation, energy, utility, chemical, information technology, public safety and defense industries.
