The 30 Top Technology Innovations of 2022

Dolph Pick: Leica Smart 3D Surveillance

Leica Geosystems’ BLK247 smart 3D surveillance system features AI-enabled sensors. It is said to be the world’s first 3D sensor combining LiDAR, video camera and thermal imaging technology for security and surveillance. The BLK247 i5 and BLK247 x5 are suited to monitor and protect different environments.

The x5 offers thermal imaging, dust and water protection for both indoor and outdoor environments, and an expanded operating temperature range; the i5 is designed for mostly indoor environments where thermal imaging is not needed. The BLK247 allows customers to create 3D zones by geofencing areas and applying custom alarm rules. Any number of these devices can be added to a customer’s existing VMS system, providing an enhanced layer of 3D security where previously there was only 2D protection. leica-geosystems.com
