    Hikvision and UR Fog intrusion alarm solutions: instant 'fogging' that stops intruders in their tracks

    UR Fog partners with Hikvision to create highly innovative 'fogging' solutions that make it impossible for intruders to see their surroundings, thereby stopping them in their tracks. Hikvision interviewed Dr Alberto Mori, CEO of UR Fog, to find out how these solutions help homeowners and businesses boost their security and prevent the negative impacts of break-ins.

     

    Q: What is UR Fog and what does the company do?

    A: UR Fog manufactures intrusion alarm solutions that shoot artificial 'fog' into homes and businesses in the event of a break in. This means that intruders are temporarily unable to see, causing them to flee the scene before any damage is caused, and before property is stolen. UR Fog's sister companies manufacture critical components of the fogging system, including proprietary plastic and metal parts, many of which are based on patented designs.  

     

    Q: What is special or unique about UR Fog's 'fogging' system? 

    A: Our background in the aerospace industry, many years of R&D, and 12 technology patents have enabled us to create the industry's leading fogging system. This delivers a number of unique benefits, including highly accurate and reliable 'micronization' of fog particles. This capability, which is enabled by the patented 'layered' metal parts we produce, means we can reliably generate fog particles that are between 1 and 3 microns in size. This allows the fogging machine to create very large volumes of 'fog' very quickly in a single shot. It also ensures that the fog leaves little or no residue on surfaces, which means it can even be sprayed safely over food. In fact, our solution is so safe that we have been awarded the EN5131-8 European Standard for Intruder Alarm Systems and a number of other safety certifications.

     

    Q: How does Hikvision technology contribute to the solution? 

    A: Our fogging system is controlled by Hikvision AX PRO wireless alarm detectors, and configured and managed via the HikConnect software platform. The system can be triggered to 'shoot' automatically based on alarms from AX PRO sensors. Alternatively, end users can shoot the system manually using their mobile phone or key fob. To verify that a break-in is really taking place, users can view images from Hikvision AX PRO PIRCAM motion detectors, which have a built-in photo camera, on their mobile devices.

    Hikvision AX PRO alarm detectors also have a range of features to minimize false alarms, including onboard deep-learning algorithms that differentiate human intruders from other moving objects, such as pets. The ability to configure and manage both UR Fog devices and AX PRO alarm detectors from the HikConnect application provides a simple user experience, with the ability to check the status of each device quickly and easily for rapid troubleshooting and 'always-on' availability.

    Q: What are the key features of the solution?

    A: The UR FOG solution can fill an area of 200 to 800 cubic meters with fog, depending on the size of the device. However, multiple devices can be combined to fill up to 14,000 cubic meters in a single shoot, which is equal to the volume of water held in almost six Olympic swimming pools. Another innovative feature of UR Fog is the ability to 'shoot' fogging devices when the Hikvision AX PRO alarm system is not even turned on, or 'armed'.  This is useful, for example, if a homeowner or member of staff is upstairs and needs to shoot devices on lower floors to prevent a robbery in progress. 

     

    Q: Why did UR Fog choose to partner with Hikvision?

    A: Most importantly, Hikvision gives us tremendous momentum in the market as a trusted, global brand, with all the technology features we need to support the next generation of fogging solutions. 

    Hikvision also has the scale and global presence to maximize visibility of UR Fog's solutions in the marketplace, as well as providing unique joint-marketing opportunities for us. Additionally, we have collaborated closely with Hikvision technology experts, both to optimize our solution for the AX PRO wireless alarm system, and to create user manuals that help UR Fog end-users to configure and operate the system extremely easily. This technical collaboration with Hikvision has been highly valuable in terms of assuring the best possible performance and the best user experience for our customers. 

     

    Q: What is your vision for the future of 'fogging'?

    A: We predict that the market for fogging systems will grow exponentially in the coming years. Today, systems are more commonly used in large facilities, but we see rapid growth in the residential and SMB markets, where these kinds of solutions are increasingly popular. For this reason, we are delivering a new range of smaller devices that are suitable for small rooms and spaces, and we expect to see high demand for these in the short term. For all these reasons, we look forward to achieving even greater success in the future, in partnership with Hikvision.
