When thinking video surveillance, we are thinking more generally to secure buildings against thefts. However, this is not the only application and video surveillance can help you to make your industrial processes more reliable.
Indeed, your installations have telemetry sensors connected to PLCs and operators have the information via a mimic. But sometimes the scenarios you had contemplated placing your probes did not happen as expected.
This is where the image comes in, when the operator can see what happens on the installations.
Cameras can also be programmed to generate events automatically using intelligent detection areas. Via output relays, controllers are operated to trigger actions (sending SMS, stopping a production line, triggering a shedding pump, etc.).
For some years now we have been developing solutions based on video surveillance in the industry. We manage end-to-end projects (fiber-optic installation, network cabling, system programming, even some PLCs).
