    Video Compression Capabilities

    The Panasonic Body-Worn Camera platform now includes H.265 / HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding) video recording, which will help agencies store their videos more efficiently.

    Panasonic will also be showing several technology solutions from Panasonic’s Video surveillance portfolio to help law enforcement organizations increase situational awareness and be alerted to potential situations before they escalate.

    Multi-Room Interview Room Solution

    Panasonic’s High Definition Interview Room Solution will be exhibited featuring a variety of Panasonic’s i-PRO cameras and Video Insight 7 (VI7) recording software optimized for police interview room applications. New enhancements to the Arbitrator Software enables interview room recordings to be easily classified and uploaded to the appropriate casefile as evidence in the Arbitrator Evidence Management System. The exhibit will feature Panasonic 360◦ Privacy Ready camera (WV-SF448) that allow operators to mechanically cover the lens remotely ensuring compliance with privacy laws when the system is not being used for active interviews. The highly scalable VI7 recording software allows an almost unlimited number of interview rooms to be managed simultaneously from a single platform with local start and stop of recording that can be enabled via simple external button push within the interview room, eliminating the need for dedicated remote operators.

    Facial Recognition and Matching

    Panasonic’s FacePro® Facial Recognition and Matching platform utilizes Panasonic surveillance cameras to identify persons of interest from a suspect watch list and alert operators in real-time of their presence, dramatically reducing the time it takes to manually process such alerts. The highly scalable system acts as a force multiplier allowing multiple cameras to be watched simultaneously and can automatically compare captured faces to a watch-list of up to 1000. Since the cameras are continuously capturing and recording faces from all FacePro enabled cameras, surveillance recordings can be also be forensically searched for a suspects face providing a powerful tool to confirm the presence of persons of interest after the fact.

    Traffic Analytics Solution

    On exhibit will be Panasonic’s new i-PRO Extreme PTZ outdoor Full HD camera (WV-X6531N) that takes road and traffic monitoring to a new level of efficiency by providing enhanced situational awareness at longer distances and enabling law enforcement authorities to detect road and traffic incidents more quickly. The new 1080p 40x zoom camera includes a gyro-sensor-based Intelligent Zoom Stabilization function that effectively detects and nulls out heavy mechanical vibration, a common issue that compromises image quality especially for PTZ cameras when used in city surveillance applications. Optional Vehicle Incident Detection software (WV-XAE100W) provides easy and intuitive intelligence and traffic monitoring capabilities, enabling the cameras to detect unusual activity such as a stopped vehicle on a highway or a vehicle traveling in the wrong direction. Once an incident has been detected, camera alarms are automatically sent to Traffic Management Systems or law enforcement staff to enable a quick and appropriate response.

    Additionally, new software solutions to help manage all technology under one platform will be on display. These include the intelligent archiver, VI7 software, and new evidence management software.

    The booth will also feature a Future Tech Zone which will showcase solutions that Panasonic currently have in development based on customer insight and current trends within the industry.
