i-PRO

i-PRO’s AI-powered tools enable proactive protection against intrusion and theft. With loitering detection, the system identifies when someone remains too long in a restricted zone, signaling potential risk. Intrusion detection instantly triggers alerts when an object or person crosses a virtual boundary or moves in a defined direction. In addition, the forensic search feature allows operators to locate and review footage quickly by filtering based on specific attributes, such as clothing color, accessories, or vehicle type enabling precise and efficient investigations. Together, these intelligent capabilities deliver continuous, discreet, and reliable security for museum facilities and exhibitions.

Through AI-based sound classification, i-PRO systems can instantly recognize critical sounds such as screams, breaking glass, or gunshots, and automatically trigger alerts for a rapid response. Fall detection (*License costs may apply for this application.) technology ensures immediate notification if a person collapses or remains on the floor, allowing staff to act quickly in case of medical emergencies. With Active Guard’s people search, operators can identify and locate individuals in real time based on visual attributes, streamlining incident response or lost-child searches. To protect personal privacy, Privacy Guard automatically applies a digital mosaic over faces and figures in recorded footage, ensuring full compliance with GDPR and maintaining the trust of visitors. Together, these intelligent features create a safer, more responsive, and privacy-conscious museum environment.

i-PRO’s AI-powered crowd management tools give museums a clear, real-time overview of how visitors move through exhibitions and public spaces. People counting provides accurate foot traffic data, helping teams adjust reception areas, entrances, and exhibit layouts based on demand. Occupancy detection monitors the number of people in a defined space and instantly issues alerts when capacity thresholds are exceeded, ensuring compliance with safety regulations. Heat maps visualize high-traffic zones and areas where visitors tend to linger, allowing museums to improve signage, flow, and exhibit placement. All analytics come together in a unified web-based dashboard, where staff can track people counting, occupancy, and heatmap data at a glance, enabling smarter decision-making, faster response, and highly efficient daily operations.

i-PRO’s intelligent analytics play a crucial role in protecting artworks from intentional or accidental damage. Virtual barriers allow museums to define protected zones around valuable pieces; if a visitor crosses the line or approaches too closely, the system immediately triggers an alert. With Active Guard’s proactive watchlists, staff are notified when a person of interest enters the museum, ensuring faster intervention when there is elevated risk. Additionally, automated audio notifications provide polite, unbiased guidance, such as “Please step back”, when someone enters a restricted area or gets too close to an artwork. This combination of smart detection, early warnings, and discreet communication creates a powerful, preventative approach to safeguarding cultural collections.

i-PRO delivers cybersecurity at the highest industry standard, ensuring that all devices and systems remain resilient against evolving digital threats. The entire product lineup is fully NDAA- and TAA-compliant, and advanced chipsets include FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certification, surpassing global requirements for encryption and data integrity. Secure protocols, encrypted communication, and pre-installed security licenses are included by default, ensuring strong protection from the moment a device is deployed. All i-PRO products are engineered and quality-assured in Japan, with high-security chipsets manufactured in the United States for maximum reliability and traceability. With i-PRO, museums gain a trusted cybersecurity foundation designed for long-term protection, operational continuity, and complete peace of mind.

i-PRO enhances access control and emergency responsiveness through advanced, AI-powered identification tools. With integrated automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) (*License costs may apply for this application.) powered by Vaxtor, museums can accurately identify vehicles by license plate, make, model, and color, helping secure staff entrances, loading docks, and restricted parking zones. Real-time face detection provides highly accurate identification without the need for a dedicated server, improving access control at entrances and sensitive areas (subject to local legislation). These capabilities work together to support seamless communication and coordination with police, medical teams, and other external agencies, ensuring rapid intervention during emergencies and improving overall visitor and staff safety.

Museums can upgrade their existing infrastructure using the X-Series, which adds modern AI capabilities, such as object detection, behavioral alerts, and forensic search, to legacy cameras without replacing them. This allows every area of the museum, from exhibition halls to control rooms and entrances, to benefit from next-generation intelligence.

i-PRO enhances security in historical buildings through a portfolio of cameras designed to minimize visual impact while maximizing intelligence. Multi-sensor cameras reduce the number of devices needed, protecting fragile walls and ceilings from excessive installation. The i-PRO Mini, the world’s smallest Edge AI camera, offers powerful analytics in an ultra-compact form that fits effortlessly into sensitive or aesthetically demanding spaces. For additional support and visitor interaction, body-worn cameras enable staff to de-escalate situations and enhance accountability. Across all product lines, i-PRO prioritizes design that blends into the environment, ensuring discreet, effective security that preserves the historical integrity of the museum.
