Perimeter Security for High-End Residential
"Time is the key to security"
Why is perimeter security so important for high-end residential?
Luxury estates often cover large areas with expansive gardens, pools, sports facilities, garages, and auxiliary structures like guesthouses or garden pavilions. This array of spaces creates potential weak points that criminals can exploit:
- Numerous entry and access points: Large properties usually have multiple entrances, gates, or driveways that need monitoring.
- Obstructed visibility: Dense foliage, high walls, or complex building layouts can create blind spots, giving intruders cover.
- Ample room for intruders to operate: The vastness of these properties allows criminals to move relatively undetected, traversing long distances before being noticed.
Traditional surveillance methods such as cameras or security guards might seem sufficient at first glance. However, as the size, value of assets, or public profile of the residents increase, the limitations of these systems become apparent. After all, nobody wants security guards patrolling their gardens 24/7 or cameras installed every 50 meters. What’s needed are comprehensive, technological solutions that ensure security without disrupting daily life.
The solution: Technological security without compromising privacy and comfort
Gone are the days when safety was achieved by simply installing an abundance of cameras. Modern systems must provide robust protection while respecting the residents’ privacy and comfort. By combining Magos’ radar systems, Vaidio’s AI-based video surveillance, and a 24/7 security operations center, Synaedge delivers a solution that identifies threats before they escalate—discreetly, precisely, and efficiently.
Radar systems by Magos: The core of perimeter protection
Magos radar systems are the foundation of a comprehensive perimeter security strategy, offering reliable monitoring for expansive properties. Regardless of conditions such as darkness, rain, or fog, these systems operate with precision and efficiency, covering the entire property seamlessly—even areas that are challenging for cameras to access. With an impressive range spanning 150 to 1,000 meters, Magos radar detects movements of pedestrians, vehicles, and even boats, ensuring no zone is left unprotected. This extensive coverage makes the technology ideal for complex and sprawling estates, where traditional systems often fall short.
AI-Based Video Surveillance: The Perfect Complement to Radar
While Magos radar serves as the first line of defense, it is seamlessly enhanced by Vaidio’s AI-powered video surveillance. This powerful combination enables precise validation of movements and detailed analysis of potential threats. When the radar detects motion, PTZ cameras (pan-tilt-zoom) integrated with the Magos system automatically focus on the area. AI technology then analyzes the situation in real-time, identifying specific threats such as individuals, masks, or weapons. This intelligent system escalates only genuine threats, enabling efficient and targeted responses without compromising the residents’ privacy.
What happens when the system detects an intruder?
The security system of Synaedge is designed to respond efficiently and precisely to any detected threat. Once an intruder is identified—whether through the radar system of Magos or the AI-based video surveillance with Vaidio—an alarm is forwarded to the 24/7 staffed security control center of Synaedge. At the same time, the system activates automated security measures on-site to respond immediately to the threat.
- Sirens and lights: These measures are triggered to deter intruders and make their actions visible. The floodlights strategically illuminate the affected areas of the property, while sirens draw attention to the intrusion and put pressure on the perpetrator
- For example: Locking doors and gates: To prevent access to sensitive areas, the system could automatically lock all entrances. At the same time, the intruder could be trapped in certain zones or locked out of other areas, preventing a direct escalation
- Notification of Residents: While the automated measures on site are activated, the residents of the property are immediately informed about the detected threat. The notification is made through various channels to ensure that all affected are warned in a timely and reliable manner
These automated measures ensure that the property is protected in the first few seconds after an incident is detected, even before human intervention is required. They create valuable time for residents to, for example, take refuge in a panic room and for verification by the security control center and the initiation of further escalation protocols.
Verification by the security control center
In the security control center, which is staffed around the clock with experienced personnel, every alarm is immediately analyzed. Access to the video and radar data is subject to strict data protection guidelines: Operators only gain access to the video streams when the system has detected a security-relevant event. This ensures maximum protection of the residents’ privacy.
Activation of escalation protocols
If the threat is classified as real, the security control center activates predefined escalation protocols
- Alerting local security forces: Security personnel on-site or near the premises are immediately informed
- Contacting the authorities: In the event of serious threats, such as burglaries or violent crimes, the police and emergency services are automatically notified
Speech communication: Direct contact with intruders
One of the unique features of the security system is the ability for direct voice communication. Through speakers strategically installed on the property, operators can communicate directly with the intruder. This allows intruders to be instructed to leave the property immediately. Direct addressing via speakers has a high deterrent effect and often prevents further escalations.
