Our solutions

From reading a parcel number through to the portal a group security department runs on. One common thread: video is not a picture to watch, it is data to work with.

Capture and identification

Without a reliable identifier, an image stays an image. We design the reading devices installed on site — parcel-number reading gantries, mechanical design and camera integration — along with the connectors that tie each sequence back to your operational data. Character recognition on labels, handheld barcode reading, integration with your scanners.

Reading gantries
Label OCR
Barcodes
CSV, XML, JSON
Web services & REST
IBM MQ
TCP / UDP sockets

Output from a reading gantry: the barcode area is outlined on the parcel, with the code read, the timestamp and the source camera. — Real output from a gantry: code area located, code read, timestamp and source camera. This is the data that then indexes the video.

Embedded AI vision

We develop our image processing on NVIDIA Jetson boards: the video stream is analysed on site, in real time, then turned into structured data. Detection classes are trained on your own operating environment, not on a generic catalogue. Face masking is applied within the embedded processing, before any distribution or export.

Scope of use: this processing addresses situations and flows, not the identification of individuals. GDPR scoping and consultation with employee representative bodies are prepared ahead of the project.

Operational software

Products developed by C4u, proven in live operation and adaptable to how your organisation works.

C4u_Mining — searching and tracking events inside a video surveillance system. A parcel-number search sweeps every connected site and opens the relevant cameras at the exact moment of passage. The engine embeds into the Milestone XProtect client: no new tool for operators to learn.

C4u_Extract — automatic extraction and archiving of footage, triggered by an event: a sequence when a parcel is opened, a photograph at order picking.

C4u_Maintenance — a ticket management portal with automatic creation and routing, and resolution-time tracking.

Security oversight

C4u_Sûreté is the control desk of a group security department: a single portal for the state of the estate, service management, crisis handling and compliance, across every site. It monitors that video, intrusion and access control equipment is working on every site with immediate alerting, runs the full ticket handling chain, holds prepared crisis procedures, manages visitors and tracks GDPR obligations. New modules are added as the department needs them.

Vendor-neutral integration

Intrusion detection, access control, video surveillance: we take on the complete chain, tied to no manufacturer. These three areas are designed to work together and to feed the software and AI processing described above. We select the equipment that suits the site and how it runs, and we are able to take over an existing estate.
