The excellence of Valerus
AI-based analytics deliver substantial time savings when it comes to post-event searches because they filter out non-relevant motion-based events. By applying object classification rules, you’ll limit your searches to just people and/ or vehicles, as opposed to all motion. Hours spent searching through video can now be reduced to minutes, so you can find what you’re looking for.
Museum Search
Search for motion in an area of recorded video, and receive a list of all events that occurred within that area. By searching only for motion triggered by people and/or vehicles, in designated areas, and within a certain time period, you will reduce the amount of non-relevant video you watch.
Thumbnail Search
Thumbnail versions of video help you search for specific incidents or a specific time frame in your video. Hover over a thumbnail to enlarge it so you can see the detail in the picture. Click on a thumbnail to jump to that specific date and time in the recording.
Event and Alarm Search
Quickly zero in on events and alarms to expedite your investigations. You can find a variety of events – from AI-based camera analytics, to LPR and Access Control events – in just a few clicks.

Vicon’s Valerus VMS continues to revolutionize the security industry, and with STQC certification, it is now positioned to meet the highest standards of cyber-secure video surveillance.
