An integrated solar-powered, wireless surveillance solution delivering secure video from perimeters, remote and difficult
to reach locations.
An introduction to the platform
Solar | Wireless | Energy Management
Who We Are
Delivering cost-effective surveillance; with respect given to sustainability.
Founded in 2008, drawing from robust and proven technologies. Funded and backed by Motorola Solutions, Inc. and a consortium of private equity investors.

Time, distance, existing facilities
Hard-surface, legacy sites
Downtime and jurisdiction questions
Placement Dependencies
Operational as well as security risks
Difficult business case to justify
Need to monitor, protect, and assess risks
Remote Assets
Cannot justify any or adequate onsite human guards
No power or inconsistent power, no network
Temporary or sudden events create acute risks
Outdoor Risks
Surveillance Trends and Needs
4
Business Challenges and Pain Points
Trenching costs prohibitive
Business/traffic disruption can be significant
Time to deploy can be lengthy
Unforeseen issues may be common
5
Understanding the Problem
Cost per remote camera placement cannot presently be justified
Current thinking suggests these areas of risk are unreasonable to resolve
Viewing risk “hot spots” from a distance may not provide the right perspective or have adequate lighting
Proposals result in project over budget, delayed and/or abandoned.
Alternatives Have Limitations
Developed for specific site need
Camera typically 25+ Watts
Very large, heavy battery packs and solar panels
Permits required for pole
Wind load issues due to panel size
Custom and COTS Solar Kits Cameras on Light Poles
Camera locations restricted to light poles
Switched power/use of step down transformers
Network?
Cost per camera = $4-6K USD
Grid dependent

Evolving the MicroPower Solution
Reduce the camera draw on power Remove the power hungry components from camera, resulting in
significantly less power consumption than a typical surveillance camera (nominal ¾ Watt vs. 25 Watts)
Add a lithium-ion battery to camera enclosure
Batteries charged via solar panel, optimized using 22+ year history NASA global weather database
Fully charged battery yields 5 days of full streaming video operation with continuous recharging, self-sustaining, renewable energy
Communicate video in secure manner, line of sight Antenna provides TrustLinx™ unique wireless protocol
Up to distance of ½ mile (.8 km)
Designed for high-availability operation, “test and heal” technology
Pool cameras MicroPower hub manages up to 4+ cameras; maximum
30fps per hub From hub, connectivity to the network
Communicate to hybrid and existing systems Benefit of no additional investigator training
Benefit of existing VMS features
Benefit of legacy systems interoperability
Installs quickly and effectively — 3-year warranty on all components
8No Power, No Network, No Problem
Camera and transmitter designed for low power operation Enterprise-class line of sight and a 2.4 GHz wireless connection Indoor hub manages 4+ cameras and integrates with leading video management software
applications
Extends the use of video surveillance to sites that were previously unreachable by traditional surveillance systems.
9Remote Video Monitoring Applications
Tap into increased situational awareness by monitoring operations and security at remote sites from a central location where streaming video
is required.
6 rapidly deployed, integrated solar-powered wireless IR cameras with an antenna 2 hubs powered locally within an environmentally controlled building Integrated backhaul
line of sight video streaming up to 10+ miles Video management software driven features and functionality at central monitoring station
Power-Efficient Platform
720p HD camera, configurable 1-15 fps

-40°F (-40°C)
Lens options: varifocal 2.8-11 mm or 10-40 mm
Lithium-ion batteries included
SOLVEIL HD
720p HD camera, configurable 1-15 fps
Nominal 0.85 Watts power requirement
Internal 5 day back up battery Operational from 122°F (50°C)
to -40°F (-40°) Lens options: varifocal 2.8-11 mm or
10-40 mm Lithium-ion batteries included Synchronized IR illumination IR illumination up to 150 ft. (45.72

11Key Capabilities and Business Value
New perspective on evidence gathering
Time and money vs. trenching, cabling and conduit
Eliminates power requirements at “hot spot”
Reduces both capital investment and long-term operational expense (sustainable renewable energy)
Complete interoperability
Does not conflict with Wi-Fi installed (temporary or permanent)
Provides pixel per foot at “hot spot”
An extension of any open systems surveillance system.
