Honeywell, a leading technology company, has announced the expansion of its Performance Series Video line with the launch of six new cameras, and upgrades to 11 existing products which are now available in the Middle East.

The enhanced Performance Series Video 2/4/8 MP IP Solution native integrated cameras deliver faster notification and verification of potential threats along with powerful insights to support small-to-medium businesses level applications at a lower installation and operating cost, said a statement.

The Performance Series video cameras feature new Face Detection and Smart Search tools that eliminate hours of video review by allowing end users to quickly search video for more efficient identification, tracking and viewing of specific individuals, it said.

New pin-hole cameras enable discreet surveillance with banking applications such as ATMs or self-check-out registers.

Fahmi Jabri, general manager, Honeywell Commercial Security, Middle East, Turkey and Africa (Meta), said: “Security technologies that leverage cloud-based and Internet of Things (IoT) technology are being adopted in the region at a remarkable pace. We recognise that the need for speed is crucial, and that our customers increasingly require security systems to identify and act upon threats before they turn into real incidents.”

“At our company, we are delivering the latest advancements in security technology that meet these requirements, and help keep the region’s people, assets and infrastructure safe. The new Performance Series video cameras and related upgrades offer quick and reliable solutions for effective security management at lower operating costs, without sacrificing on quality,” Jabri added.

The key benefits and features included:
