The newest update to the AI-powered computer vision product applies to both new and existing systems, including the Dual Camera Analytic Models (DCAMs).

Back-end upgrades improve system detection capabilities and interface updates enhance remote event validation, even off-site; both offer a reduction in dependence on site inspections and allow for more rapid mitigation or proactive incident responses.

"The improvement in processing engine efficiency enables the IntelliView system to handle more complex analytic functions, such as cross camera correlation," the company said of its newest release.

"This translates to increased detection accuracy and further reduction of false alerts of the fully automated IntelliView monitoring systems, which can instantaneously detect, qualify and report on user-defined events, such as above-ground liquid and wet hydrocarbon leaks, other hazardous liquids, security breaches, flare stack flame failures, and wildlife intrusions."

IVS 5.0 also comes with a web interface as well as numerous capabilities suggested by customers; they include additional functionalities to the IntelliView video management system, the System Console (SC), that provides enhanced event validation and remote viewing experience overall.

It also now has a full-screen mode and a customisable live video tour mode in its comprehensive monitoring toolkit where users can view live feeds and recorded videos at the maximum browser size of their monitor. The can also flip across multiple camera views without manual operation, with higher image detail that can allow events to be confirmed quicker.

Other proprietary software technologies were implemented into the SC to greatly improve users' ability to identify alert causes, confirm events as quickly as possible, and easily manage multiple alerts.

"The expectations and dependence on artificial intelligence for automating condition monitoring operations are higher today given the performance standard demanded by safety-conscious operators and industries, such as oil and gas and mining," VP for sales and marketing Chris Beadle said.

"The improved analytic capability and system reliability delivered by the IVS 5.0 provide site managers value through significantly minimised nuisance alerts and faster offsite validation of events, helping them achieve their HSE goals and optimise operations cost effectively."
