High tech security system will warn off burglars

A state of the art security system which warns potential burglars and vandals they are being watched has been launched.

The system uses the latest technology to monitor building sites through the latest intelligence detection software.

And if intruders are spotted trying to sneak into sites speakers spring into life warning them that they are being monitored by surveillance cameras.

Manchester based construction industry supplier FOC Sales Ltd has signed a partnership deal with Remvox to launch the Remguard system on the market.

FOC Sales managing director Steve Booth said: “We have a real desire to improve products and services on site to help personnel carry out their jobs more efficiently and safely, through new innovations and solutions – we provide that expertise, and develop and sell products which we feel are really needed in the industry.”

The system was developed after Remvox talked to construction companies about the security problems facing the sector.

The firm discovered a series of issues such as instability; only one camera which didn’t give a 360 degree clear view, and wires and cables protruding down the outside of the columns, which could be easily cut and tampered with by would be thieves.

The team came up with a system that includes video analytics, digitally enhanced imagery, audio intervention and four cameras which can detect from any angle to over four miles.

All functions can be controlled remotely, off-site from a smart phone, tablet or PC, at any hour of the day or night.

The unit is self-contained so can be easily moved from site to site. It works without grid mains power and runs off a bespoke internal uninterrupted power management system, meaning the unit will run for up to 12 weeks without the need for refuelling.

The team will be attending this year’s Hillhead exhibition in Buxton in June to showcase the technology.
