    1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Overview

    Traditionally, surveillance was intended to allow operators to see and act on information gathered as it happens. In today’s digital age with the scale of CCTV infrastructure, the ability to see where and when it matters is an impossible task. Existing systems are typically operated reactively using the information presented from externally generated intelligence resulting from the effect of unaddressed risk. The goal of iCetana is to see what matters when it matters most giving you the ability to respond in real-time to address risk across security, safety and operations giving your business situational awareness across all aspects of the organisation. By presenting footage that is most likely to contain these types of events in real-time, iCetana gives operators the best possible chance of identifying and addressing risk when it matters. iCetana’s real-time Artificial Intelligence (AI) assisted video monitoring learns what is normal for each camera scene and gains an understanding of what is ordinary so it may present the operator with footage containing the abnormal events that are most likely to contain threats and intelligence. Each day the system adapts to new environmental and behavioural events to establish new norms to identify unpredictable activity over time. iCetana's underlying AI-assisted video monitoring can scale to thousands of cameras in the one installation – future proofing the use of the video surveillance infrastructure.

    2 ICETANA SOLUTION 2.1 Overview

    iCetana filters incoming video down to a manageable amount, (approximately 2% of all video), based on whether the movement in the video is normal or abnormal. From the video clips shown, operators decide whether the shown event requires action.

    The types of actionable events that can be identified include:

    • Suspicious behaviour • Unauthorized access/trespassing – people and vehicles • Violence and aggressive behaviour • Medical events • Precursory events – crowd gathering/dispersing • Vandalism • Camera tampering and theft • Fire

    3 HOW ICETANA WORKS 3.1 Overview

    iCetana receives a constant stream of video which it analyses frame by frame through the application of machine learning to detect and display footage that is most likely to contain risks and other events that are of interest to operators by comparing motion in real-time to that which it has learned as normal. The initial training period is fourteen days, however, once this has passed the system continues to learn to allow it to adapt to changing scenes and environment dynamically.

    3.2 Normal vs. abnormal movement The upper image represents footage containing motion that iCetana regards as being representative of normal activity within the scene and subsequently, does not require presentation to the operator. The lower image represents footage containing abnormal motion that iCetana considers as an anomaly based on its understanding of the scene and should be presented to the operator so that it may be reviewed.

    4 CLIENT APPLICATIONS OVERVIEW The iCetana client applications are designed to provide efficient tools for viewing video from cameras configured in iCetana. Each tool is individually tailored to the task at hand whether that be viewing live video or reviewing historical video. The iCetana toolkit includes:

    • The LiveWallTM for seeing anomalies in real-time. • A suite of playback tools for viewing past anomalies. • In-built incident reporting and data visualisation tools.

    4.1 Application architecture iCetana applications connect directly to the iCetana server to subscribe to live events for display on the LiveWallTM and request historical events for review using one of the playback tools. The iCetana server also stores incident reports that are created and retrieved using its r-Track Anomaly Information Management System. The high-level topology for the iCetana system appears below.

    4.2 Application summary iCetana’s applications are organised into core and supplementary applications depending on the task being performed and expected frequency of use. A summary of each application appears as follows: Core Applications

    LiveWallTM

    Displays anomalies as they are happening so that they may be assessed by an operator to determine whether action is required. This application is non-interactive. It may be used on operator machines as well as large wall mounted monitors.

    Playback

    Allows past anomalies to be re-played individually for further evaluation or investigation by an operator on a per camera basis.

    PlaybackWall

    Displays a historical view of anomalies at a given date and time for a selected number of cameras. This functionality may be used to mirror the events displayed on the LiveWallTM during a particular period.

    Supplementary Applications

    Live

    Displays live streams from each camera contained in a selected View Group.

    r-Track Anomaly Information Management System

    Records incident information associated with anomalies that operators determined required more action. Incident details are available to all supervisors who to foster real-time and historical reporting.

    Gen 1.0 User Manual v1.2.docx Page 7 of 68

    5 INCIDENT WORKFLOW 5.1 Overview

    iCetana allows incidents to be reported directly from the Playback and PlaybackWall tools and the r-Track Anomaly Information Management System. Details for these incidents are instantly available throughout the network to assist with response and reporting. Data captured by real-time and historical reporting provides valuable business intelligence through may be visualised using r-Track’s inbuilt tools.

    5.2 Incident workflow When an operator sees an event on the LiveWallTM, they must first determine whether this represents an actionable incident. Most events displayed to the operator are not actionable, e.g. loitering, movements through car parks, etc. However, iCetana does detect numerous events that may represent precursors, trespassing, damage to people and property that may require attention. Ultimately, it is up to the operator to assess and choose the appropriate action for a given situation. The expected workflow is below:

    1 iCetana event iCetana detects an event and displays it on the LiveWallTM as a short video clip.

    2 Operator evaluation Review of live events to determine whether an action is required.

    Note: Most events displayed on the LiveWallTM do not require action.

    3 Action required Logging of the camera name and time and further examination or investigation using a VMS or video recall using iCetana’s Playback tool.

    Note: Serious incidents and suspicious events may require additional steps in according with standard operating procedures.

    4 Incident report Post-event follow-up and completion of an incident report.

    Incident reporting categories and sub-categories can be customised to match your reporting needs.

    1. iCetana event

    2. Operator evaluation

    3. Action required (Incident)

    4. Incident report

    6 LIVEWALLTM 6.1 Overview

    The LiveWallTM is a configurable grid that displays abnormal movement to the operator as short video clips as they are occurring. When the video first appears, the footage displayed is approximately 7 seconds behind real-time. This footage is played at 3x speed until it catches up. While this is occurring, the square in the top right of the frame flashes red. Once the video has caught up and is playing in real-time, the square flashes green.

    iCetana LiveWallTM with no anomalies to display

    iCetana LiveWallTM displaying one anomaly

    Operators watch the short clips displayed to determine what, if any, action should be taken. Each video clip is displayed for approximately 20 seconds up to the default maximum of 45 seconds before disappearing automatically. This period ensures that there is footage for operators to obtain sufficient context for investigation before displaying the next anomaly. If an anomaly requires further examination or inspection, an extended version may be reviewed using the Playback tool (Section 7). When an anomaly appears on the LiveWallTM, the video is stored by iCetana for future viewing. Supervisors can review all incidents that occurred within a shift using other tools and create an incident report.

    Depending on your system configuration, stored video may be deleted from iCetana after 4 weeks.

    7 PLAYBACK 7.1 Overview

    When anomalies are identified by iCetana, they are typically displayed in real-time on the LiveWallTM as a series of short video clips. When an individual event requires closer inspection, the Playback application provides the opportunity to re-play the anomaly, export video as an AVI file (MJPEG encoding) and raise incidents directly. This application consists of a video viewer, a control panel, a list of all cameras, and the events for the selected camera displayed in time order. Anomalies are played sequentially for a selected camera and period.

    7.2 Accessing Playback To access the Playback application, you need to know the username, password and address of the server.

    1. Open the iCetana Applications folder and select the Playback application.
