ESSM's surveillance platform combines high-resolution cameras with AI video analytics — detecting threats, tracking movement, and flagging anomalies automatically. Every alert is reviewed by a trained operator before escalation.

License Plate Recognition

Automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) at entry points, checkpoints, and access roads. Instant alerts for flagged vehicles.

Facial Recognition (optional)

Optional facial recognition module for access-controlled environments. Deployed in compliance with applicable regulations.

HD & Thermal Cameras

Day/night HD cameras and thermal imaging for low-light and perimeter applications. Ruggedized for West Africa's climate.

Encrypted Video Storage

All footage is encrypted and stored on secure local and cloud infrastructure. Configurable retention periods and role-based access.
