Alarm Detection and Emerging Video Technologies
Abstract
Chapter 16 includes information on many types of alarm detection technologies including interior and perimeter systems, point systems, volumetric systems, dual technologies, the use of video technologies for detection and emerging detection technologies.
Alarm detection technologies include point detectors, volumetric detectors, and line detectors. Point detectors include magnetic door switches and duress switches. Volumetric detectors include passive and active infrared, microwave, ultrasonic, and acoustic detectors. Dual-technology detectors reduce nuisance alarms. Video systems can also serve as volumetric detectors and as either a security alarm system or a forensic analytic ...
