Eagle Eye Smart Video Search is Eagle Eye Networks’ answer to how to search for exact video footage intuitively and easily. The Smart Video Search feature, is the winner of the Benchmark Innovation Awards 2023, Analytics and Software category.
The company compares its Smart Video Search to the Google search engine we are all familiar with. Indeed, Smart Video Search and Google have similarities. Both are built to perform efficient and accurate searches. While Google focuses on searching the vast expanse of the internet to deliver personalised results, Eagle Eye’s Smart Video Search specialises in searching through video footage to recognise objects, people and vehicles. Both platforms are user-friendly and aim to provide users with relevant results quickly and with minimal effort.
However, while there are similarities between Smart Video Search and Google’s search engine, they serve different purposes and target different markets. Smart Video Search is a specialised tool for searching and analysing video footage in the context of video surveillance and security applications.
Eagle Eye’s Smart Video Search uses artificial intelligence to make searching for a video as simple as searching for a video on the web. By simply typing in terms like “man with red shirt”, “red Vauxhall car”, or “woman carrying a backpack”, customers can search across all the cameras at all locations to find exactly the video they are looking for and can share video clips as quickly as they can find them.
Smart Video Search helps business owners and security directors enhance security and safety measures. It can quickly identify and alert users about potential security threats or suspicious activities. The results of any search can be downloaded and shared straight away.
Advanced video analytics enable quick and precise searches within video footage. This significantly reduces the time and effort required for manual video review. With Smart Video Search, business owners can find specific events or objects in large volumes of video data without spending hours or days manually “scrubbing video”.
Being a cloud-based solution, Smart Video Search allows users to access video footage from anywhere with an internet connection. This convenience and accessibility facilitates remote monitoring and management of video data, cameras and locations. The feature is available globally to all Eagle Eye Cloud VMS (video management system) customers with no extra hardware, installation or subscription fees.
Cloud-based solutions also provide scalability, enabling businesses to adapt and expand their video surveillance needs as their requirements grow.
Dean Drako, Founder and CEO of Eagle Eye Networks, said, “With Eagle Eye Smart Video Search, we are helping security professionals solve one of the biggest challenges in their work: finding the exact video they need during or after a security incident.”
The AI-powered analytics of Eagle Eye Smart Video Search can provide valuable insights and trends extracted from the video data. These insights can be used to optimise business operations, improve customer experience, and enhance overall decision-making processes.
