icetana Limited (ASX:ICE) has signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with NEC Argentina to enhance urban surveillance offerings in the Latin American market.

NEC is the world’s leading provider of integrated security solutions to large-scale customers as well as a very significant vendor for standalone surveillance analytics solutions. Its operations in Argentina alone provide services to more than 10 command and control centres for active monitoring and incident response activities; whilst supporting over 10,000 cameras.

The parties have agreed to collaborate on developing enhancements to icetana’s motion intelligence software, specifically for active monitoring of large-scale city surveillance operations.

 icetana’s strategy of targeting active control room environments is well served by this new agreement.

Existing icetana clients in the Middle East are able to monitor upwards of 250 cameras per operator which is well above the typical 30-50 cameras per operator on non-icetana sites.

NEC Argentina deploys a range of video analytics as part of their comprehensive safe-city offerings and icetana complements these existing solutions with an opportunity for both improved productivity in the control room, as well as a higher likelihood of detecting critical incidents as they happen.

When a company of icetana’s size attracts the attention of an industry heavyweight like NEC it shows our motion intelligence product has clear competitive differentiation to other market players,” icetana CEO, Matt Macfarlane, said.

“We will work diligently to achieve the outcomes set down in the MoU so that NEC becomes a long-term partner of icetana. Success with this relationship provides access to hundreds of thousands of cameras being monitored in control rooms globally.”

icetana Limited is a global software company providing video analytics solutions designed to automatically identify anomalous actions in real-time for large scale surveillance networks. Its software integrates with customers’ existing video management systems and IP cameras.
