Flock Safety Expands Product Suite with Solar-Powered Condor, an AI-enhanced Video Solution Designed to Help Deter & Solve Crime
May 16 2024 - 1:00PM
Flock Safety, the all-in-one technology solution that keeps
communities safe, today introduced Solar-Powered Condor, a video
solution that enables cities, law enforcement agencies, and
businesses to install the new technology anywhere with ease. Condor
uses artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to
provide communities with live and recorded video to help deter and
solve crime equitably and effectively.
Solar-Powered Condor joins Flock Safety’s suite of hardware and
software solutions that is helping solve over 10 percent of
reported crimes nationwide.
“Solar-Powered Condor is a game changer for customers who trust
Flock Safety to pioneer easy-to-deploy, affordable solutions for
combating crime and improving public safety,” said Garrett Langley,
CEO and founder of Flock Safety. “Condor pairs live video with LPR
and audio detection, providing better situational awareness for law
enforcement and security teams. And with the Solar-Powered Condor,
customers are no longer constrained by AC power requirements,
freeing them up to place cameras where they are most needed.”
The U.S. faces a growing shortage of police officers, plummeting
clearance rates and rising organized retail and car theft, making
public safety a top concern for communities nationwide. Studies
show that the perception of being apprehended is consistently the
most powerful crime deterrent. Integrating technology can help
reduce crime and over-policing while bringing more objectivity to
law enforcement.
Condor is powered by advanced AI and ML that is constantly
learning, with cutting-edge video analytics to adapt to changing
needs. With solar deployment, Condor cameras can be placed
anywhere, including areas without access to continuous electrical
power, without disruption to the community or maintenance and
installation hassles. Agencies can also avoid complex
infrastructure and construction and writing costs, helping save
money amid widespread budget cuts.
Other features include:
- Improved camera performance and processing with a 30x computing
boost from previous models, ensuring high-quality data capture and
processing
- AI-enhanced video streaming that include alerts when suspect
vehicles are spotted or when people are congregating in closed
areas after hours
- A subscription service model, which includes installation and
maintenance handled by Flock, allowing organizations to focus on
protecting their communities instead of managing IT
- Simple process to move or add units for better coverage,
allowing agencies to customize their system to fully cover all the
areas needed
Flock Safety's solutions contribute to crime reduction through
equitable and unbiased methods that don’t disproportionately target
communities and prioritize privacy and transparency. This
commitment is reflected in Flock’s secure data handling and
rigorous auditing processes, including enabling robust auditing of
its devices to promote accountability. All views of live or
recorded video, including video download events, are saved and
available for audit indefinitely.
Flock Safety’s mission is to improve community safety with its
hardware and software solutions. Its technology helps solve 700,000
crimes each year and makes over 5,000 communities safer nationwide.
