Axis solutions can prove invaluable when a fast response is required. Visual cameras with sophisticated analytics can recognize early signs of smoke and fire, and thermal technology can monitor tanks, pipes, and equipment for potentially dangerous leaks. Axis network devices can also assist in safe, rapid evacuations. For instance, network cameras and two-way speakers can help operators evaluate the type, scope, and severity of an emergency. You can also use them to track the flow of evacuation through the facility and support rescue teams. Plus, in the event of a man down, cameras equipped with smart analytics support a rapid response, even in lone-worker scenarios.

With Axis network solutions, you can proactively identify near-future risk and take steps to mitigate it. Connected cameras, network audio, and intelligent analytics let you configure your system to spot dangerous situations or behaviors, such as a blocked emergency exit or individuals approaching a hazardous area, then issue correctional messaging. Camera analytics also deliver personal protective equipment (PPE) detection. When you integrate PPE detection with an access control system, you can even ensure there is no entry without the required protective equipment.

In addition to identifying hazards and unsafe practices in real time, Axis solutions can provide valuable insights to help you improve your safety policies and procedures. Workplace incidents, injuries, and near misses can be reviewed via high-quality video footage, enabling a deeper analysis and accurate, unbiased records. When you understand an incident’s root cause, you can create or revise safety protocols to prevent similar future incidents. Video footage can also be an excellent training resource. Showing employees where they may have endangered themselves is a persuasive tool for promoting safer behavior.
