Axis partners with City of Houston to secure Super Bowl LIVE

With over one million people expected through downtown for Super Bowl LIVE, the City of Houston needed to upgrade its existing camera system to address the needs of law enforcement in the area. The City of Houston utilized a selection of Axis network cameras, including PTZ, thermal and flexible options to cover all bases. The cameras and partner network added a necessary tool with analytics that not only provided assistance and support for ground operations surrounding this event but laid out the platform for continued advancement of technology use in the City for general safety needs.

Safety before, during, and after the event

A key challenge of venue security is how to keep fans in and around the stadium safe without spoiling the atmosphere. Axis helps meet this challenge throughout the entire event. Beforehand, network video helps control the flow of visitors to the venue, while onboard analytics alert you if known troublemakers are identified or if anyone enters restricted areas. Inside the stadium, PTZ cameras can cover large areas while also letting you zoom in on details, even in difficult light or weather conditions. You can then search through HD footage after the event to investigate misbehavior, produce actionable evidence, or review your own performance.

Intelligent ways to control stadium crowds

Our innovative, scalable camera and IoT solutions help maneuver large numbers of people with maximum safety and efficiency. IP-based access control solutions are central – they keep spectators in the right areas and ensure that players and performers stay safe and undisturbed. They utilize license plate recognition, smart cards, QR-codes, or 2-way video and audio, and because they’re based on open software platforms it’s easy to add new technologies. Network speakers are another excellent tool for managing crowds. Our audio solutions let you provide guidance and information, and are especially vital in the event of emergency evacuation.
