VIDEO INTELLIGENCETalk to an expert
Seeing is only the beginning. The true value lies in understanding.
Advanced IP CCTV and intelligent video monitoring projects that integrate cameras, infrastructure, networks, processing, VMS, storage, video analytics, and artificial intelligence into a single security architecture. Modern systems are no longer merely recording tools. Add Solution designs environments in which video, data, and events work together to enhance situational awareness, accelerate investigations, and support faster, more precise responses.

Video SecurityProfessional, scalable IP architecturesAnalytics & AIVideo transformed into events and informationEngineering & IntegrationEvery layer as a single system
From image capture to decision-driving information. Engineering at every layer.
A camera is not a project.
Resolution is important, but it does not determine quality on its own. Field of view, distance, density, lighting, lens, positioning, compression, bitrate, latency, retention, network, and processing must work together as an architecture.
First, we determine what needs to be seen, detected, recognized, identified, or analyzed.We design for the objective, not for the number of cameras.

Video Analytics & AI
When the system stops merely watching and starts interpreting.
Analytics can transform images into events, objects, and metadata that direct attention to what really matters.
The goal is not to generate more alerts. It is to generate more relevant information.CAM 04 · PERÍMETROLIVE

Intelligence increasingly closer to where the event occurs.
In compatible architectures, some analysis takes place on the device, distributing processing and producing events and metadata before the central layers.

More megapixels do not fix a poorly sized design.
Usefulness depends on the relationship between resolution, distance, lens, field of view, positioning, lighting, and objective.

Recording everything requires knowing exactly how much “everything” represents.
Number of cameras, resolution, frame rate, codec, bitrate, recording profile, and retention affect capacity and performance.

Intelligence must go hand in hand with responsibility.
Purpose, access, retention, protection, traceability, profiles, and governance must be considered in the design—without replacing legal guidance.
An architecture should not depend on improvised integrations.

The problem was never having too few images. It is finding the image that matters.
An intelligent architecture helps people find what requires attention—not simply produce even more video.

Video Intelligence, from concept to architecture.
What is Video Intelligence?
It is an approach that integrates capture, processing, analytics, artificial intelligence, networking, VMS, and storage to transform images into useful information for security and operations.
What is the difference between traditional CCTV and intelligent video monitoring?
Traditional CCTV is often geared toward viewing and recording. Modern architectures can add analytics, metadata, intelligent search, events, and integrations.
What is video analytics?
It is the use of image processing and algorithms to analyze scenes and identify relevant conditions, objects, or events, depending on the capabilities of the technology used.
What is VMS?
A Video Management System is the platform that centralizes cameras, live video, recordings, events, users, and integrations.
How is storage calculated for a CCTV system?
Sizing takes into account the number of cameras, resolution, bitrate, codec, frame rate, recording profile, and retention period.
Do IP cameras require cybersecurity safeguards?
Yes. As connected endpoints, they must be included in segmentation, identity, credential, firmware, hardening, and lifecycle policies.
Your security needs to see. Your operation needs to understand.
Add Solution combines engineering, infrastructure, IP video, processing, storage, analytics, and integration to build systems designed to protect people, assets, and operations.
