Journey Path

TL/DR: Coram has developed Journey, a machine learning software to detect people of interest and follow them across multiple cameras on an easy-to-use web interface. 

What is a Journey? 

Coram's Journey tool automates the process of tracking individuals across multiple IP cameras, greatly reducing investigation times for security teams. By analyzing appearance attributes like clothing color and gait, rather than facial recognition, Journey creates privacy-conscious tracking. Users select an individual to follow, and Journey identifies their path across multiple cameras in seconds, even in settings with numerous cameras. 

This feature is beneficial for high-traffic areas like retail stores, schools, and warehouses, allowing seamless, shareable documentation of an individual’s route for security or investigative needs.

Use Cases of the Journey Tool

  1. School Safety Monitoring:
    In educational institutions, Journey helps track unauthorized individuals or locate specific students across campus. Security teams can quickly assess movement patterns, aiding in real-time threat response or incident reconstruction.
  2. Warehouse and Logistics Oversight:
    In large warehouses, Journey monitors employee and vehicle movement across different zones, improving security, asset management, and operational efficiency. The tool aids in tracking lost assets and enhances compliance with safety protocols.
  3. Retail Loss Prevention:
    For retail stores, Journey identifies the path of suspicious individuals or groups across multiple sections, helping security teams prevent theft. It supports incident documentation, which can be shared with law enforcement if necessary.
  4. Public Event Security:
    During large events, Journey tracks individuals in crowded settings, assisting with real-time monitoring of high-risk areas. It aids event security teams in managing crowds and responding to potential incidents quickly.
  5. Corporate Office Surveillance:
    Journey can monitor sensitive areas, such as restricted zones or high-security rooms, within corporate offices. Security teams can follow personnel movement, ensuring compliance with access protocols and promptly identifying unauthorized entries.

Coram's Journey tool is particularly useful in environments requiring extensive, real-time monitoring and efficient security management, providing a non-intrusive but effective method of tracking.
