Driver cameras are a useful tool in authenticating the occupants of a vehicle in security situations, but like any new technology, improvements are constantly being made. While there are many driver camera options on the market, few of them offer the full suite of benefits that really pique the interests of security experts. Today, we want to take a look at some of the ways driver cameras have evolved and how Gatekeeper’s option, our Intelligent Vehicle Occupant Detector (IVOD), takes advantage of some of the most cutting-edge tech out there.
Effective Facial Recognition
Having footage to look back at for reference is useful in some scenarios, of course, but nothing beats having real-time information fed to you. That’s why quality facial recognition capabilities opens up the possibilities for security experts. The IVOD can identify not only the driver of a vehicle but the occupants as well. This information can then be easily matched against a database to determine whether or not the occupants of that vehicle are authorized to access a secure space.
Versatile Installation Options
Being able to use your security tech when and where you need it is incredibly important, so it’s no wonder that so many newer driver camera systems are pushing versatility and multiple means of installation. The IVOD, for instance, is capable of withstanding even the most extreme weather conditions like heavy rain or snow thanks to its IP67 rated enclosure. Additionally, there are multiple camera and lighting configurations, meaning you have much more control over what your driver cameras do.
Additional Functionality
In a process driven by research, design, and engineering, the IVOD has been developed with functionality in mind. The system takes advantage of high-resolution cameras paired with powerful LEDs which means it won’t be impeded by conditions that otherwise may trip up other driver cameras. This includes heavily-tinted windows, ballistic glass, or even if there’s a glare due to overhead lighting or the sun.
