Imaging System for Immersive Surveillance Fact Sheet

A perfect security camera system would be able to see everything all the time, identify anomalous activity of interest within the camera’s field of view and automatically and immediately alert users. Public safety officials told the Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology (S&T) Directorate of their need for such a system, resulting in the launch of the Wide Area Surveillance project and developed the Imaging System for Immersive Surveillance.
