PRYSM Software and Automatic Sea Vision Announce Partnership

March 30th, 2015 Market leading PSIM manufacturer PRYSM SOFTWARE and specialist
maritime video analytics company Automatic Sea Vision today announced their formal tie
up and partnership. The combination of AppVision PSIM and advanced detection abilities
from Automatic Sea Vision will provide coastal and maritime protection systems for
integrated port and naval security projects around the globe.
AppVision PSIM (Physical Security Information Management) uses open architecture and
open customization in order to integrate different security and automation systems into a
unified management structure for technical integration but also for handling procedures,
audit trails and post event forensics. Diverse systems from many different manufacturers
can be deployed together in a holistic and unified system to provide complete security
management : video surveillance, video analytics, access control, intrusion, fire and life
safety, perimeter protection, radars and even building automation. AppVision monitors all
real time triggers and events simultaneously from disparate systems, making intuitive
decisions and also communicating with operators to form the proper response. AppVision is
also able to use different methods for communicating response procedures to control room,
remote or mobile personnel.
When combined with Automatic Sea Vision systems, AppVision is able to track as yet
unknown objects at very long range from the coast or from a ship in order to make
informed decisions on whether the object represents a security threat.
Real time camera images with decision making information is sent from Automatic Sea
Vision and presented in the AppVision custom management interface so that the security
manager can rapidly interpret the images and data act accordingly, thus gaining precious
time which potentially saves lives and investments. On screen prompts from the AppVision
PSIM will display prerecorded standard operating procedures to assist with decision making.
AppVision also provides the security operator with customizable tools for friend and foe
labelling and colour schemes so that they can quickly set aside known objects and in order
to remain focused on unknown and potentially dangerous incoming threats.
We are very pleased to be working with Automatic Sea Vision as there are many current
applications that we see for the AppVision / Automatic Sea Vision solution to real and
present problems faced by ships and port authorities. This tie-up means that AppVision
partners around the globe will now be able to offer a unique and market leading solution to
for maritime security," said Liam Heatley, Sales Manager at Prysm. "
Philippe Waquet, CEO at Automatic Sea Vision further commented, "Our partnership
between Automatic Sea Vision and PRYSMs AppVision PSIM offers a real-time identification
and crisis management solution for maritime security projects and we are already very
excited by several discussions with partners and end clients taking place in various
countries.
