New York City CCTV Systems - New York CCTV Systems

In response to the Boston marathon bombings of a year ago, the Boston Police Force is teaming up with a Texas- based firm, BRS Labs, who has their hands in behavioral recognition. The plan is to install CCTV systems that utilize smart technology to identify abnormalities. These differ from normal CCTV Systems in that the traditional approach is to merely record the landscape and occurrences whereas the new cameras will record the occurrences and analyze the data it records. After analyzing, the CCTV System can then alert its administrator to any abnormalities. This is a trend that we could see in New York City CCTV Systems and New York CCTV Systems in the near future.

The technology advanced by BRS Labs is set to revolutionize how we look at data sets. No longer will our cities need security guards to sit in a backroom and monitor television screens around the clock. We have the capabilities to be alerted when something goes awry rather than having to keep a keen eye on the screen 24/7. The technology is already being used in Boston and design plans are being drawn for Chicago, Washington and one can only assume it is a matter of time before New York City CCTV Systems and New York CCTV Systems have these features as well.

The CCTV Systems are completely autonomous and check for countless number of abnormalities in any given environment. It adapts to learn the environment and what is considered out of place. A few of the things that this CCTV System has the capabilities to check for include a car that is driving the wrong way in a parking garage, somebody poking around the back of the a building where there usually is no foot traffic or someone carrying a bag that is overweight and could be holding explosives. All of this takes place without human programming or analysis.

Of course this raises questions about privacy rights. Especially in the aftermath of the NSA’s repulsive disregard for human privacy in monitoring millions of Americans personal phone calls, one must wonder how far is too far. This system, however, is being justified on the grounds that CCTV systems are already ubiquitous and we might as well make them more functional. And the notion that it was CCTV systems that captured images of the Boston marathon bombers in the first place.

With so many things to say about New York Wheelchair van rentals it needed to be a two part feature. If you missed it, catch up with New York Wheelchair van rentals: Get to the Game on Time Part 1. The struggles this season for the New York metropolitan area teams were numerous and the triumphs were few. It has been argued that the best ability is availability, and well, New York showed up. There is more than enough disappointment to go around as the struggles dissipate into all four major disciplines: Mets, Giants, Jets, Islanders, Rangers, Nets and Knicks. One shining note is that ticket prices should be dropping and getting there is easy when you choose New York Wheelchair Van Rentals from Wheelers handicapped accessible vans.

As for the NBA, there is not a whole lot of positive things to say about the New York Knicks. They won the last four games of the regular season and looked as if they would sneak into the payoffs as an 8 seed. But in true Knicks fashion they ended up falling short and missing the playoffs…again. This time only by one game. A late show of heart wasn’t enough and the age old saying of “When you lose 45 games, it is hard to make the playoffs.” Rang true once again.

Across the bridge in Brooklyn, the newly branded Brooklyn Nets are no longer the laughing stock of the Metropolitan area. The managed to pick up a 6 seed in the Eastern conference and with the aging but experienced former Celtics on their team, they could be a sleeper for a first round victory over Toronto. Rapper Drake has made a show of supporting the Toronto Raptors while Jay Z has fired back and is standing with the Nets. In the classic showdown of overpaid rappers cheering for mediocre franchises, let’s hope that Pierce and Garnett can keep their focus on the court long enough to be swept by the Pacers or Heat in the next round.

Shifting gears to the NFL and the upcoming draft, don’t expect much from the New York Giants this year. A 7-9 finish last year and plenty of holes on both offense in defense mean that this team will be struggling again. Eli has managed to become a non-factor after two Super Bowl rings and this New York team should be on track for another .500 season. But like the Yankees: Mets metaphor, it could be worse for the Giants.

The Jets once again found a way to embarrass themselves in the 2013 season. Just when you thought it couldn't possibly get any worse, they found a new low. The Jets were horrendous, laughable and a team barely a mother could love, but somehow managed to finish .500. I know what you’re thinking, that’s not so bad, but it is so bad. The Jets won 3 of the last 4, missed the playoffs and by doing this shot themselves in the foot. Now they have the 18th draft choice which is well out of range for an elite player. They are just good enough to not get a top prospect yet bad enough to perpetually miss the playoffs. A true nightmare for a New York fan.

With that being said there is a bright side to this. New York Wheelchair Van Rentals have never been more convenient to get you to the games. Ticket prices are dropping like Sanchez passes and the vans roadside pickup is easier to find than a fair weather Yankees fan. Wheelers Accessible Van rentals always finishes first and is more reliable than the Mets missing the playoffs.

garage door services -- garage door repairs

A forward thinking preschool in Bonita Springs, Florida is using garage door services as an innovation tool in the classroom. The plan is to have the overhead door system installed between the classrooms, so that children in one room have the ability to collaborate on projects with children in the next room over at will.

With this all new and innovative use for overhead door repairs children in grades one through five will be able to socialize with one another at the discretion of the teachers. The garage door system will most likely be operated through a series of pulleys or a remote opener. The teachers will have control over this system and with the touch of a button they will turn their classroom into a realm suited for multi-age collaboration. This feature is expected to enhance retention rates while helping students become more involved with the content.

This project design is an interesting way to implement garage doors into a commercial setting. It is also one of the first projects to use garage doors for educational purposes. The school will also feature a garage door/wall feature in the physical education department that will allow for indoor and outdoor play to be combined. The inspiration behind this is to bring the outdoors into the classroom by combining the two into one.

Aside from garage door installations technology and innovation the new school will also feature an edible outdoor garden, a nature trail that goes around the property and connects the existing buildings, and of course will be the most energy efficient LEAD certified building that the technology allows.

Alarm Systems and home automation in the news as Google’s Nest Labs CO and fire alarm systems have been failing. Nest Labs was acquired by Google in January for $3.2 billion. Nest labs specializes in home automation through monitored safety systems. They are known for their forward thinking techniques that save money by being energy efficient while also bringing the level of communication to a 21st century level by alerting owners remotely. Nest products have long been celebrated as the pinnacle of home automation and alarm systems, yet they may not be up to par with the industry.

Nest’s alert and alarm systems could potentially be life-threatening if not serviced immediately. The problem lies in an inefficient algorithm that Nest uses to deactivate smoke alarm systems.

“According to the New York Times, Nest Labs discovered that during laboratory testing the alarm’s software algorithm could misinterpret movement near the detector as being an intentional “wave” command and shut the unit off. The feature, the ability to easily turn off the smoke detector with a wave of the hand from a distance of 0.6 to 2.4 meters away when there was a false alarm, is a major selling point of Nest Protect. But in its current instantiation, the feature may be a life-threatening bug.” 

This home automation and alarm systems bug can be serviced by a technician working in the home automation industry. If you have a Nest product and are looking to have it removed or serviced contacting Cyber Technologies is your solution. The home automation and alarm systems experts for years provide free consulting services to those looking into a new or upgraded alarm system.

It is becoming a more and more common feature in homes to incorporate smart technology or technology that adapts to its users tendencies. With that being said, being on the cutting edge of technology is coveted but it is necessary to make sure you are not endangering lives by doing it. Slowing down to ensure the safety of clients is something for which the value cannot be overstated.
