VBA works by detecting and interpreting human behavior and intent from video streams, transforming safety measures across various industries, from transportation and retail to government facilities, but many are not yet on this journey.

Video behavior analytics involves the use of AI algorithms to analyze video footage and identify humans and their actions to recognize patterns that may indicate suspicious or dangerous behavior. Unlike traditional video surveillance, which relies heavily on human monitoring, VBA automates the detection process, allowing for real-time alerts and quicker responses to potential threats, ideally preventing security incidents before harm is caused. This technology can detect a wide range of behaviors, from aggressive actions and vandalism to individuals entering prohibited areas or showing signs of distress requiring medical assistance.

One key area is increasing the safety of passengers and drivers by identifying aggressive behavior, vandalism or unauthorized access to restricted areas, such as train tracks. By detecting these behaviors early, transport control centers and station staff can take preventive measures or respond to incidents, minimizing risks and enhancing overall safety.

Large gatherings in public spaces or arenas, such as concerts, sports events and festivals, create unique security challenges. VBA could help monitor crowds for signs of aggression and identify individuals entering restricted areas, left luggage or potential overcrowding.
