Courtroom Security and IP Video Surveillance

The Grand Traverse Band of the Ottawa and Chippewa Indians (GTBI) Michigan came to TrueSystems to design a a courthose security system with integrated surveillance and panic alarms.

TrueSentry IP video surveillance was deployed in each courtroom.  The system uses over 20 IP cameras on an internal network to provide live surveillance and instant access to recorded video.

GTBI uses the TrueSentry alarm monitoring interface to instantly view the status of all panic alarms, and cameras in every courtroom.  This has increased security and reduced costs.

Unified Security: Panic Alarms and Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD)

TrueSentry C3 provides unified security.  It monitors panic alarm buttons throughout the courtroom, common areas, and personnel offices.

When a panic button is pressed, TrueSentry C3 Server automatically creates a computer aided dispatch (CAD) incident. The live video of the associated courtroom camera appears in a popup window on the dispatcher's workstation.

Notice in the example shown this is the TrueSentry Mini minimalist interface that is designed for integration with other systems like CAD.  The dispatcher does not have to use the power user interface for security guards and command personnel.  TrueSentry Mini runs as a Windows Tray icon app.
