Surveillance system required day/night imaging solution to ensure youth safety
Avalarm is faced with the critical challenge of ensuring local schools, youth centres and sport facilities in Kurikka, Finland are monitored with high quality surveillance systems. The school monitoring system provides increased safety for school children and also ensures vandals and trespassers do not compromise the facilities.
Using new technology Avalarm can provide a much more accurate system than was previously offered. To maintain the critical surveillance level needed Avalarm required a high resolution megapixel IP camera capable of capturing fine details in various lighting conditions. The ability to produce clear images in the night time was important as Kurikka, Finland has few hours of daytime sunlight in the winter.
The images produced needed to provide sufficient detail to allow for facial recognition, and a high resolution to read the characters on a license plate. The camera also required a quality sensor and technology specifically engineered for applications with challenging light conditions.
Avalarm implements Le175 in surveillance systems throughout Kurikka
Avalarm implemented Lumenera's Le175 in 23 key locations throughout the town of Kurikka. The Le175 features programmable day/night settings that automatically switch to enhanced low-light mode for outstanding night time images.
"We required an advanced megapixel camera for our surveillance systems to ensure we were accurately monitoring the area 24/7," stated Tuomo Aaltonen, Manager, Avalarm Oy. "The Le175 provided the critical image detail we needed, even at night time, allowing us to prevent vandalism in the area."

Avalarm is using the motion detection capabilities of Lumenera cameras, recording four images per second. The installation has exceeded expectations as users are very impressed with the night performance and sensitivity of the Le175.
Outcome
The Avalarm surveillance system installed throughout Kurikka, uses Lumenera's high performance Le175 digital cameras to provide an additional layer of security at the local schools, youth centres and sport facilities. By choosing the Le175, Avalarm can be sure that any unauthorised activity will be seen and more importantly details of the activity will be easily interpreted through clear images in both daytime and night time.
