Overview: Making Industrial Surveillance Smarter with AI

Security monitoring is an essential part of manufacturing operations. From protecting equipment and inventory to monitoring restricted areas, manufacturing facilities need reliable surveillance systems that can identify potential security incidents without depending entirely on manual observation. However, traditional CCTV systems often provide limited intelligence. Security teams must continuously monitor multiple camera feeds, identify suspicious activity themselves, and manually retrieve footage whenever an incident occurs.

To address these challenges, SnohAI implemented an AI-powered video surveillance solution for an automotive manufacturing facility in Jaipur, Rajasthan. Powered by Snoh Vision, the customized system integrates nine IP cameras with a deep learning-based detection model to identify people, distinguish security guards, generate real-time alerts, and automatically capture video evidence.

The result is a centralized intelligent surveillance environment that helps security teams monitor facility activities, respond to potential incidents faster, and manage security evidence more efficiently.

The Challenge: Moving Beyond Manual CCTV Monitoring

Before implementing Snoh Vision, the facility faced several limitations with its existing surveillance approach.

1. Continuous Manual Monitoring

Security personnel depended on manually observing multiple CCTV feeds. Monitoring nine cameras simultaneously made it difficult to maintain consistent attention and identify every relevant incident.

2. Limited After-Hours Surveillance

Unauthorized presence in restricted areas during non-working hours could go unnoticed. The existing setup also lacked an intelligent way to distinguish security guards from other individuals during patrols.

3. No Automated Video Evidence Collection

Security incidents required manual footage retrieval and documentation. The absence of automatically generated, timestamped evidence made incident reviews and reporting more time-consuming.

4. Disconnected Camera Monitoring

The nine IP cameras operated without a unified monitoring interface, making it difficult to maintain a consolidated view of surveillance activities across indoor and outdoor areas.

5. Frequent False Alerts

Security patrols and static objects, including bags and equipment, could trigger unwanted notifications. Without intelligent filtering, repeated false alerts affected the efficiency of security monitoring.

6. Limited Access Management

The previous system lacked role-based permissions and a complete activity log, limiting visibility into who accessed, reviewed, or acknowledged security alerts. The facility needed a solution that could do more than record video. It needed intelligent monitoring, relevant notifications, automated evidence collection, and centralized control.

The Solution: Introducing Snoh Vision

SnohAI developed and deployed a customized surveillance solution using its enterprise computer vision platform, Snoh Vision.

The implementation combined AI-based person detection, intelligent alert processing, automated video recording, and a centralized cloud dashboard.

Instead of relying solely on security personnel to watch camera feeds, the system continuously analyzes camera footage and generates notifications when relevant detection events occur.

1. Custom AI Model for Intelligent Person Detection

At the core of the implementation was a custom-trained YOLOv11m deep learning model designed with two detection classes: Person and Guard. This enabled the system to differentiate between security personnel and other detected individuals, supporting more relevant security monitoring.

Key capabilities:

  • Real-time person detection across all nine IP cameras.
  • Guard-versus-person classification.
  • GPU-accelerated inference using CUDA and FP16 precision.
  • Simultaneous processing of all nine camera feeds.

The custom model achieved an mAP50 score of 0.784 during the reported evaluation.

2. Intelligent Alert Processing and False-Positive Filtering

Detecting activity is only one part of effective surveillance. A useful security system must also reduce unnecessary notifications. SnohAI implemented a multi-layer alert engine that applies several filtering mechanisms before generating alerts.

Key capabilities:

  • Real-time detection notifications.
  • Automatic snapshot capture for detected events.
  • Confidence-threshold-based filtering.
  • Aspect-ratio and area-ratio filtering.
  • Guard suppression logic.
  • Camera-specific working-hour schedules.
  • Zone-based cooldown mechanisms.
  • A 30-minute camera-level cooldown to prevent duplicate alerts for the same presence event.

Outdoor cameras were configured with camera-specific working-hour schedules, helping address unwanted night-patrol notifications.

3. Automated Video Evidence Management

The solution automatically captures visual evidence whenever a detection event occurs. Each event includes a reference snapshot and a 15-second H.264-encoded video clip, providing security teams with additional context for reviewing incidents.

Key capabilities:

  • Timestamped snapshots.
  • Automatic 15-second video clip generation.
  • Browser-based playback with seek and replay functionality.
  • Downloadable video evidence.
  • HTTP Range streaming for smoother video playback.

This reduces the need to manually search through recordings whenever a potential incident needs to be investigated.

4. Centralized Cloud-Based Surveillance Dashboard

To simplify monitoring and system management, SnohAI deployed a centralized cloud-hosted dashboard connecting all nine surveillance cameras. The dashboard provides security personnel and administrators with a consolidated view of camera activity and detection alerts.

Key capabilities:

  • Real-time WebSocket notifications without requiring page refreshes.
  • Centralized monitoring of all nine cameras.
  • Role-based access control with Admin and Viewer permissions.
  • Timestamped user activity logs, including IP addresses.
  • Alert filtering by camera, date, status, and severity.
  • CSV export for structured alert reporting.
  • HTTPS/SSL-secured deployment.

Surveillance Coverage: Nine Connected Camera Locations

Snoh Vision was deployed across nine surveillance nodes covering indoor storage facilities and outdoor operational areas.

By connecting these camera locations through a single platform, the implementation established a more organized and centralized surveillance environment.
