Duos Technologies, Inc.
Duos, now a privately owned corporation headquartered in Jacksonville,
Florida, provides a broad variety of sophisticated, technology-based
applications, advanced automated control systems, and intelligent
security. With the need for a general hardening of security
world-wide, Duos re-focused to develop and deploy intelligent
security technologies including artificial intelligence integrated
with actionable video surveillance solutions - very applicable
to Homeland Security initiatives. Since then, the Company has
specialized in the hardening of critical infrastructures with
a main focus on the rail and transportation industries.
Recently, Duos was awarded a contract for the turn-key development
of the first virtual rail corridor security system known as
the National Capital Region Rail Pilot Project. While Mr.
Arcaini cannot elaborate on this project, he will speak about
the general landscape of security systems using artificial
intelligence and the current and future development of security
technologies.
About Duos’ Technologies Praesidium™
The PRAESIDIUM™ sensor detection suite analyzes and
processes incoming video and sensor feeds utilizing algorithms
to detect specific activities and events for security and
surveillance applications. The system is designed to simultaneously
detect multiple events and to process each event in accordance
with user-defined parameter settings, and creates cognitive
information enabling decision makers to evaluate threats in
real-time and collaborate using the same data. PRAESIDIUM™
allows both real-time local and remote monitoring using a
customized browser-based interface. From simple installations
to highly complex, richly sensored urban site setups, the
PRAESIDIUM™ sensor detection suite provides the most
advanced, accurate, and flexible video analysis available
in the marketplace today.
PRAESIDIUM™ on a system level features automatic failure
recovery, strong encryption, custom policy management, diverse
alarm notification methodology, multi-type sensor support,
low bandwidth requirements for remote video and sensor access,
and months of archive capability.
3D-IS (3D Immersive Surveillance)
3D-IS is a real-time immersive visualization system that integrates
information in a common coordinate system. With 3D-IS, the
user can move in time and space, and as every live video and
sensor meta-data is co-registered in the same environment,
it is possible to move backward, forward, or jump to any recorded
moment in time. Seamless transition from 3D virtual environment
to live video and the ability to freely fly through a scene
renders this application supremely intuitive and provides
the impression of remote immersive tele-presence. Using Pan/Tilt/Zoom
(PTZ) cameras and automatic camera handover, the user can
maintain continuous view of a target as long as it is in the
coverage area.
3D-IS Global Edition (GE) extends 3D-IS by adding features
that help manage data flow in a geospatial context, and permits
users to navigate through and process mission critical real-time
information from the globe level all the way down to street
and camera/sensor feeds. Especially in situations where data
overload is a pressing issue and there is a need to work in
terrestrial zones, 3D-IS GE helps the user by dividing information
to priority sorted, custom configured, manageable portions.
Virtual Fence / Virtual Perimeter
Duos’ Virtual Fence / Virtual Perimeter technology provides
intrusion security to seamlessly harden the nation’s
rail corridors, bridges, and tunnels. A variety of monitoring
technologies, including high-quality fixed video cameras,
high resolution day/night pan/tilt/zoom video cameras positioned
at strategic locations, and other sensor-based detection devices
establish virtual fence lines and/or virtual perimeters within
the field of view of each camera, capable of distinguishing
between moving vehicles, people, and other objects.
Real time video feeds are “stitched together”
and overlaid over satellite imagery to provide spatial orientation.
Events are automatically digitally recorded, time stamped,
and stored for later retrieval. A powerful video search engine
searchable by time, date, camera number, and location allows
easy retrieval of stored video files.
