Pyramid Vision will continue to market and support its existing product lines for advanced video processing.

These products are major components of solutions for the aerial reconnaissance, intelligence and law enforcement communities.
— VisionAlert(TM): The video content analysis solution that
offers “motion-on-motion” detection capabilities for both
fixed and pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) cameras. By electronically
stabilizing video images and subtracting background motion,
VisionAlert transforms video cameras into intelligent security
sensors that spot perimeter breaches and abandoned or
loitering objects, and track moving targets – even in low
light or bad weather conditions.
— Hawk(TM): An integrated, scaleable, rules-based security
sensor management platform that creates a unified,
multi-dimensional view of multiple alarm sensor types and
video feeds. Hawk is optimized for medium-to-large- scale wide area surveillance.
— Video Flashlight(TM): For video-intensive facilities, Video
Flashlight has the ability to “warp and stitch” multiple,
real-time video streams into a single, three-dimensional view.
The system allows security forces to intuitively grasp spatial relationships–the previously missing “context” that is critical to understanding the nature of the threat and
directing the response
