CSIM platform

CSIM is a command center that connects several security systems

CSIM takes video and signals from recorders, VMS, door systems, fire alarm, intrusion and building systems and shows them on one screen. The operator sees the incident, sees the video and follows the steps without switching programs.

Simulated
How it works

Three steps from your current systems to handling incidents

01

Connect

Connect to the recorders and systems already installed, through the connection each model supports.

02

Bring together

Show video and incidents from the connected systems on a map and one screen.

03

Handle incidents

When a signal arrives, the system shows the operator the video and the steps, and records the result for later review.

Main capabilities

One screen the operator works from for the whole shift

Designed so the incident that needs action comes first.

  • Multi-tile camera layout — arrange cameras in several tiles, and switch camera sets by task
  • Playback with a timeline — scrub to the period you need on one timeline, as each device model supports
  • Evidence export — cut clips by time range, and split long ranges into several files, as each device model supports
  • Maps and floor plans — see device locations and the incident point on a real map
  • Response procedure (SOP) — when an incident occurs, the system shows the steps to take one by one
  • Per-user access rights — set who can see which camera
System structure

Add a new brand and the operator screen stays the same

The system has three layers, and each can be tested on its own.

Layer 3

Presentation layer

The command center on operator workstations for continuous monitoring, and web pages for managers and reports. Both use the same design language and the same status colors.

Operator Console Web Dashboard Event map Reports
Layer 2

Processing core

Merges and ranks events, sets rules for raising severity, and links each event to a camera and a location. It also keeps a usage log for later review.

Event merging Severity escalation Camera + location link Usage log
Layer 1

Device connection layer

A connector for each brand wraps the manufacturer's SDK or a common standard into one interface. A new brand means a new connector, with no change to the core.

Image analysis

AI that runs on your own network

Image analysis models run on servers inside your site. Video does not have to be sent out to the cloud for processing. This suits organizations with rules about data leaving the organization.

Object and person detection

Tells people, vehicles and objects of interest apart from general movement.

Area and line rules

Set restricted areas or boundary lines. When something crosses one, the system raises an incident.

Can work offline

Runs on ONNX Runtime on a server inside the site, so it can be used at sites cut off from the internet.

Core and modules

Start with the parts you need, then add modules as the work requires

Choose only the modules that fit your work.

Connects to the recorders and VMS listed on the Integrations page

What works depends on the recorder and camera models. We check the models for you before the project starts.

Recorder Integration

Connect the recorders you already have, and watch them on one screen

What works depends on the recorder and camera models. We check the models for you before the project starts.

Existing recorders

Use the recorders you have

Connects to NVRs, DVRs and VMS already installed, with no need to replace them

Multiple brands

Cameras on one screen

Cameras from recorders of several brands, watched from one screen

Standalone cameras

Connect directly by standard

Cameras that support ONVIF or RTSP can show live view. Playback and clip export need assessment by model.

On the map

Open cameras from the recorder

Pick a recorder on the map and open its whole set of cameras in one view

  • View live video from cameras through your existing recorders
  • Play back by date and time (Hikvision, Dahua and Uniview, by model)
  • Export clips as Raw, AVI or MP4, as each device model supports
  • Control PTZ cameras and saved positions, for Hikvision and Dahua, by model
  • Open several cameras at once, and rotate cameras in a set order
  • Place cameras on a map, use an offline map, and see the direction each camera faces
  • Set user permissions, and limit cameras by area group
  • Keep a usage log for later review

This runs on the same screen operators use all shift. See Main capabilities.

Health Monitor

Know before you need the recordings

Nobody wants to find out, when the evidence is needed, that a camera went dark two weeks ago. The system checks device status in repeating rounds and shows which device has a problem.

For system administrators

See which devices have problems

See camera and recorder status on a map, and search for devices from one page

For technicians

Know the cause before you go on site

See the cause found for each device before you head out to the site

For maintenance contract holders

Have figures to report

Summaries of availability, repair time and trends by project

For evidence owners

Know before you need the video

See a device problem before the day you have to ask for recorded video

  • Checks connection, authentication and recording in repeating rounds
  • Separates the cause: device not responding, cannot log in, or failed hard disk
  • Checks standalone cameras by pulling a real image, not just a ping
  • Shows per-channel status of recorders, by model
  • Run a check on a single device from the screen
  • Open live video from a pin on the map
  • Reports on availability, repair time and trends, exportable to Excel
  • Keeps a usage log for later review

CCTV-IoT Sharing

Share camera video with the public, recording systems, AI and other agencies

To the public

Share on a website

Share video from traffic, tourism and security cameras so the public can watch on a website.

To recording systems

Share to NVR/VMS

Send a camera stream to a recorder.

To AI

Share with AI

Send camera video to an AI system to use.

To other agencies

Share between agencies

Use cameras jointly between agencies, which reduces duplicate camera installation.

  • Publish live video from cameras
  • Generate HTML code to embed video on a website
  • Proxy the camera stream, pulling it all the time or only when someone asks to watch
  • Convert streams between protocols automatically, for example publishing as RTSP, RTMP, HLS and WebRTC
  • Query and control the server through an HTTP API
  • Show camera icons on Google Maps and open live video on a web portal
  • The web portal supports both registered and unregistered viewers
  • A dashboard summarizing the total number of cameras, portal visit statistics and offline camera streams

Installation

Sites without internet can still install and update

Topic The SafeAll CSIM approach
Installation model On-premises by default — video and core data are kept on your organization's network
Air-gapped network Air-gapped sites are supported. Installation, updates and database upgrades can be done without an internet connection.
Database PostgreSQL — an open structure you can inspect, with your data not locked into a manufacturer's own format
Scaling Add devices and sites in phases, without changing the core of the system
Continuity Designed to run 24/7, with continuous device status checks
Updates Updates can be installed offline on an air-gapped network, with no internet connection
