Industrial security using video analytics in security cameras
How did the process begin?
"In a plant where the coexistence between automated machinery and personnel is constant, recognizing and minimizing accident risks becomes an absolute priority. We needed a solution capable of integrating with our infrastructure and acting proactively in the face of human presence."

What was done?
Actions that were carried out:
-
Installation of a KSI monitoring system for real-time detection of personnel in risk areas.
-
Communication of KSI detections with the plant's industrial control systems.
-
Configuration of security protocols where the machinery modified its operation as soon as nearby human presence was detected.
"With the installation of KSI, we turned our plant into an intelligent system that reacts instantly to the presence of people. Zone monitoring and integration with our industrial control systems gave us the power to 'teach' our machines to coexist with workers without risk."

What results were obtained?
The innovations introduced thanks to KSI digital twins have transformed the plant into a safer and more efficient work environment. Machines are now allies in the protection of employees, acting preventively and ensuring operational continuity without exposing personnel to unnecessary risks. This advancement not only enhanced safety but also brought a solid return on investment by reducing costs associated with workplace accidents and production downtime.
"The KSI system not only increased the safety of our plant, but generated a new culture of accident prevention. The machinery now 'knows' when to slow down, stop or change route, significantly reducing the possibility of incidents."

Summary and ROI
Reduction of risk situations
A drastic reduction in risk situations was achieved by braking the machinery in the presence of people
Minimum investment
The entire existing camera infrastructure was reused without the need to place new ones
Integration with control systems
The person detection data became available for use on any machine in the plant through industrial communication protocols.
