icetana Limited (ASX:ICE)  has landed a new contract for services to be provided to Melbourne-based Monash University to supply icetana’s surveillance video analytics solution.

The icetana solution ensures the privacy of those being surveilled with no facial recognition and automated learning algorithms for each camera view. icetana will allow real-time detection of many events of interest for the active response of the University’s security team. Monash joins a number of other higher education clients that include Swinburne, Curtin and Mount Royal Universities.

The software-as-a-service (SaaS) order is for a three year initial contract with a total value of $260,000, inclusive of installation and three years of subscription ending in April 2026. This deployment is for a significant proportion of Monash’s surveillance cameras across multiple campuses.

Implementation will be undertaken by icetana technicians during the course of 2023 following a successful technical trial.

The university market has always offered a particularly strong use-case for icetana’s AI software,” CEO and Managing Director Matt Macfarlane said.

“Campus surveillance is highly varied with indoor requirements as well as wide open outdoor environments; from relatively quiet late night movement to very busy lunchtime events. icetana’s self-learning approach is well suited to such scene variations and we excel at identifying events of interest to the security monitoring team.”
