Over the same time period, imaging technology has continued to improve in quality while continuously dropping in price, making 24/7 monitoring of many commercial sites economically feasible. While many Security and Surveillance systems today are of high quality, there are gaps in the performance of the current products that leave the monitoring equipment prone to failure or result in lapses in effective monitoring. Most imaging systems work optimally in bright daylight, but start to fail as the light levels get lower, as in early evening hours. Our Scientific CMOS sensor technology addresses this problem by providing extremely high sensitivity to light and very low sensor noise. The result is the ability to collect usable images even through the dusk hours when most other systems fail.

We have many other features that are helpful to this type of imaging as described below. Standard High Definition format as well as SXGA format High Dynamic Range data to collect weak and strong signals in the same image. Excellent anti-blooming so there is no bleed-over of bright reflections into other parts of the image. Supra-video rate imaging capability to allow multi-frame processing for stabilization and image enhancement algorithms. Low cost packaging for high volume, price sensitive applications.

Supports snapshot mode operation for still capture imaging. The Fairchild Imaging sCMOS Sensors offered for Security and Surveillance applications are listed below.

National Security & Surveillance

MFIA represents clients asserting constitutional and statutory rights to information critical to oversight of our nation's security policies. On behalf of our clients, we have sought access to judicial opinions, regulations, and rules governing communications surveillance, in addition to fighting for limits on the extent to which the recipients of investigative demands may be prevented from discussing the government's actions with the press and the public. American Civil Liberties Union v. National Security Agency, No. 13-cv-9198MFIA students represent the ACLU in a federal Freedom of Information Act lawsuit seeking disclosure of the rules that govern communications surveillance abroad pursuant to Executive Order 12,333. FISC Access LitigationMFIA and the ACLU are pursuing access to secret judicial opinions of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court that address the legal authority for surveillance, including the bulk collection of data.

Rosenberg v. Dep't of DefenseMFIA represents prize-winning reporter Carol Rosenberg and the Miami Herald in a FOIA lawsuit against the Department of Defense seeking access to emails sent and received by General John F. Kelly, former Secretary of Homeland Security and current White House Chief of Staff, during General Kelly's time as commander of the U.S. Southern Command. For a list of previous matters, please see the MFIA Archive.

Drone Solution For Security & Surveillance

Providing real-time insight into security and emergency situations for better control, precise intelligence gathering, comprehensive situational awareness, and more informed decision making. Industrial operations face constant safety and security threats, which require real-time response solutions that provide rapid, precise and reliable situational awareness. Airobotics has developed a platform that provides security officers and emergency responders with a professional tool for collecting unlimited aerial data and providing real-time visibility into security threats and emergency situations. Security operations are simplified with pre-defined missions, and emergency response is enhanced through on-demand availability. The completely automatic platform autonomously deploys and lands the drone, and collects aerial data to be processed and analyzed.

Real-time aerial video and photos are delivered directly to personnel on the ground, enabling more informed decision making in times of emergency situations or during routine patrols. The Airobotics platform eliminates the logistics involved in drone operations, while providing reliable, scheduled and on-demand aerial data collection, premium processing and analytics capabilities. In addition to security and surveillance, another solution Airobotics provides is drone for industrial inspections. Which may be of great assistance to a variety of industrial operations.

Trade-off Across Privacy, Security and Surveillance in the Case of Metro Travel in Europe

Privacy issues related to mass surveillance received unprecedented attention in 2013 and 2014. While the debate so far has focused on internet-based surveillance, the concerns raised by increased awareness of state surveillance capabilities have far reaching consequences for discussions on legislation relating to security, privacy and liberty in a range of domains. Focusing on train/metro travel we investigate whether Europeans perceive similar security and privacy issues as have been raised in recent discussions about surveillance. This paper presents preliminary findings from the empirical phase of PACT, a three year pan-European project. PACT has as its centerpiece a large scale survey of privacy & security preferences.

The survey is designed to elicit respondents' preferences related to various security and privacy aspects involved in three contexts, including train/metro travel. Using data from the pilot we demonstrate the application of stated preference methods in the context of security and privacy. The stated -preference exercise gathers preferences related to CCTV, CCTV data handling, type of security personnel, type of physical security check, delay due to security checks, and cost of security/surveillance. Using discrete choice models to estimate willingness to pay for different security/surveillance features we aim to provide the missing evidence on valuation of public security and surveillance.
