Stop Business Threats in Real Time: Introducing A.I. Video Deterrence

By Media Team | February 5, 2025 |

When it comes to protecting your business, every second counts. Intruders can quickly assess whether a property is secure or not, and if they sense vulnerability, they may continue their criminal activity. This is where AI Deterrence (AID) Automated Audio Response Service from ACS Fire & Security can make all the difference. By combining innovative artificial intelligence with Video Analytics, AID offers an adaptive, real-time deterrent that stops trespassers in their tracks before they have a chance to cause damage or steal valuable assets.

What is AI Deterrence (AID)?

AI Deterrence (AID) is a cutting-edge security solution that uses artificial intelligence to create customized audio warnings in real-time. These warnings are generated based on what the AI identifies about the intruder’s appearance, behavior, and location on your property. AID doesn’t just send generic, automated messages; it tailors its audio responses to provide detailed, contextually relevant information that is impossible to ignore. For example, it can say, “Hey, you wearing a black shirt and blue jeans. You appear to be standing next to a loading dock. Leave the premises immediately.”

The AI is designed to identify trespassers’ clothing colors, their specific locations on the property, and other distinguishing features, such as whether they are near entry points or high-risk areas like loading docks or back doors. By targeting the intruder’s appearance and location, AID creates a more personalized and impactful warning, making it seem as if a live operator is watching and responding in real-time.

“AI Deterrence doesn’t just react to the presence of an intruder; it responds in a way that feels immediate and personal, making criminals second-guess their decision to proceed.” – ACS Fire & Security

How AI Deterrence (AID) Works

The beauty of AID lies in its simplicity and effectiveness. Once installed, the system integrates seamlessly with your existing Alarm.com video monitoring system. As the AI analyzes the footage captured by your security cameras, it can quickly identify suspicious behavior and trigger an adaptive verbal warning through your security system’s speakers.

This system is powered by advanced Video Analytics that allow the AI to detect specific details, such as:

Clothing color: Identifying the trespasser’s shirt or pants color.
Location: Pinpointing the intruder’s exact position on the property.
Behavioral patterns: Detecting unusual movements or actions that suggest a potential security threat.

“With AI Deterrence, security systems are no longer just passive observers. They actively prevent crimes by issuing warnings and preventing escalation before authorities are even involved.” – ACS Fire & Security

The Benefits of AI Deterrence for Your Business

Real-Time Adaptive Warnings

Traditional alarm systems might rely on generic, scripted audio responses that don’t account for the specifics of a situation. With AID, the response is real-time, adaptive, and personalized to the intruder’s exact behavior and location. This makes the warning seem more like a live operator intervention, which is often enough to dissuade trespassers from continuing their actions.

Lower Latency and Costs

Unlike operator-initiated Two-Way Talkdown, which involves a human responding to security alerts, AID is a fully automated system that delivers verbal warnings almost instantly. This reduces the latency typically seen with operator response and also cuts costs, as businesses don’t have to pay for live operator services.

Easy Integration with Existing Systems

AID is designed to integrate smoothly with your existing Alarm.com system. Setup is quick, and it can be configured in seconds to suit your security needs. Whether you need it to trigger when motion is detected or as part of a specific security rule, AID’s flexibility makes it a seamless addition to your property’s security.

Enhanced Security without Increased Personnel

With AID, businesses can enjoy the benefits of a proactive security system without the need for additional personnel or monitoring. The AI makes sure that the property is being actively monitored, and its adaptive audio warnings prevent incidents before they escalate.
