Cross-Camera Tracking

What is cross-camera tracking?

Cross-camera tracking is a security technology that follows a person or object across multiple surveillance cameras within a network. Using AI and video analytics, it links footage from different camera angles to maintain continuous tracking, even as the subject moves between areas. Businesses use cross-camera tracking to enhance security, improve loss prevention, and streamline investigations by creating a seamless video trail. This technology is especially useful in large spaces like retail stores, malls, airports, and warehouses, where multiple cameras are needed to monitor movement effectively.

Why is cross-camera tracking important?

Cross-camera tracking is important because it enhances security, improves loss prevention, and streamlines investigations by maintaining continuous visibility on a person or object across multiple surveillance cameras. This technology helps businesses and law enforcement quickly trace movements, identify suspects, and reduce blind spots in large areas like retail stores, malls, airports, and warehouses. By linking footage from different cameras, cross-camera tracking provides a seamless video trail, making it easier to detect suspicious activity, prevent theft, and improve overall situational awareness.
