Guard Watcher — Security Intelligence Agent

Your Security Team Can't Be Everywhere. VIZO361 Can.

"Night shift. 3 AM. 40 cameras. Is your guard watching all of them? Or is one of those cameras watching your guard sleep?"

Four Things Guard Watcher Catches — Automatically

Every incident logged. Every alert sent. Zero human oversight required.

Guard Sleeping / Head Drooping

AI posture analysis detects the characteristic head-drop and stillness pattern of a sleeping guard — even in low light. Alert fires in under 30 seconds of detection.

Guard Absent from Post

Configurable absence threshold per post — 2 minutes, 5 minutes, 10 minutes. If the guard zone is empty beyond the threshold, supervisor is alerted immediately.

Unauthorized Person in Restricted Zone

Any person detected in a configured restricted zone (server room, cash vault, materials store) triggers an immediate alert — regardless of whether a guard is present.

Patrol Checkpoint Missed

Guard tour tracking confirms that guards visited each scheduled checkpoint within the allocated time window. Missed checkpoints generate a compliance exception in the patrol report.

40% of Indian security incidents occur on night shifts.

60% of guard sleeping incidents go unreported — because the only person who could report it is the guard's colleague. VIZO361 Guard Watcher catches every incident in real time and creates an immutable record — automatically.

From Camera to Supervisor Alert in Under 30 Seconds

Three steps. No human monitor required.

01

Camera Monitors Guard Post Zone

Your existing RTSP/ONVIF camera stream is analyzed 24/7. You configure the guard post zone, restricted areas, and absence thresholds in the VIZO361 dashboard. Works with your existing NVR — no changes required.

02

AI Detects the Anomaly

Sleeping posture, absence from zone, unauthorized person, or camera tampering — all detected simultaneously by Guard Watcher's dedicated posture and presence AI models. Detection time under 30 seconds from onset of anomaly.

03

Instant WhatsApp to Supervisor

Alert sent to your configured supervisor WhatsApp numbers with: screenshot of the incident, timestamp, camera name and location. The log entry is simultaneously created in the VIZO361 dashboard — immutable evidence.

Guard Tour Feature: Patrol Compliance Tracking

VIZO361 Guard Watcher includes a full patrol route tracking module. Define your guard's route, checkpoints, and expected timing. The system confirms each checkpoint is visited on schedule — and generates a daily patrol compliance report. Know exactly where guards were, when — without asking them.

Guard Watcher — Common Questions

Can guards tamper with or cover the camera?

VIZO361 includes camera tamper detection — if a camera is covered, repositioned, or obstructed, an immediate alert fires to the supervisor independently of the Guard Watcher detection. Camera health is monitored continuously, and any feed interruption triggers a separate notification chain.

What is the detection accuracy in low light?

Guard Watcher is optimized for night shift deployment — the highest-risk period. With IR-capable cameras, sleeping posture detection accuracy remains above 90% in near-zero lux conditions. We assess your guard post lighting during pilot setup and recommend camera upgrades only if absolutely necessary.

Can I configure the 'absent from post' time threshold?

Yes. The absence threshold is fully configurable per camera zone. An ATM guard post might trigger at 2 minutes of absence, while a warehouse perimeter guard might have a 10-minute threshold. All thresholds are managed from the dashboard without requiring a system restart.

Does it work with existing NVRs?

Yes. Guard Watcher connects to your existing cameras via RTSP or ONVIF — the same protocol your NVR uses. Your NVR continues to record as it always has. VIZO361 adds a parallel AI analysis layer. No modifications to your existing NVR are required.

How do I review past guard incidents?

All detected incidents are logged in the VIZO361 dashboard with timestamp, camera name, incident type, and captured image. You can filter by date, post, or incident type. Incident logs are exportable as PDF or Excel for reporting to management, audit teams, or your security agency.
