🎥 Security Cameras Alone Don’t Stop Crime — But Smart Systems Can
At Richesin Engineering, we design security solutions that give you more than just peace of mind — we give you real situational awareness. As a Montavue authorized dealer, we deploy AI-powered surveillance systems that not only record what happens but help you act faster when it counts.
Let’s be honest: most security camera systems are passive. They show you what happened after the fact. But with today’s smart surveillance technology, that’s no longer good enough.
If you’re serious about deterring crime — not just reacting to it — here’s what actually works.
❌ Traditional Cameras Are Mostly Reactive
Standard security cameras are useful for:
Reviewing incidents after the fact
Identifying people or vehicles
Supporting insurance and legal claims
Monitoring employee or visitor activity
But the truth is, most crimes still happen on camera. The footage helps you understand what went wrong — but by the time you’re watching it, it’s already too late.
✅ What Actually Deters Criminals?
To actively deter threats, you need a layered system. Here’s how we build that:
🔦 1.
Visible Deterrents
Well-placed cameras
Warning signage
Bright lighting in high-risk areas
These elements make people think twice before doing something they shouldn’t.
📡 2.
AI-Powered Detection with Montavue
Montavue cameras are built with advanced AI features like:
Smart motion detection (human/vehicle filtering)
Facial recognition
License plate recognition (LPR)
Perimeter intrusion detection
Line-crossing alerts
Geofencing and tripwires
These features reduce false alarms and ensure you only get notified when it actually matters.
🔔 3.
Integrated Alarms and Alerts
You can pair Montavue AI events with:
Audible deterrents (siren or voice alerts)
Flashing lights
Push notifications or email alerts
Instant app alerts to your phone
While we do not provide remote monitoring or security personnel, we give you the tools to respond faster and smarter — or integrate with a service of your choice.
🛑 4.
Smart Zones and Geofencing
Want to know if someone enters a restricted area? Montavue’s geofencing lets you draw a virtual fence around your sensitive areas and receive alerts only when it matters — whether it’s after-hours access, a delivery gone wrong, or a potential break-in.
