Digital Barriers, the surveillance product manufacturer, has signed a strategic partnership with Kings Secure Technologies (Kings). Having introduced SmartVis SafeZone, Digital Barriers’ edge-based video analytics and intrusion software some years ago, Bradford-based Kings is now offering all Digital Barriers’ products including low bandwidth live streaming, real-time facial recognition and live-streaming body-worn cameras.
Digital Barriers says that the partnership opens up a new route to market, particularly in commercial fields – health, logistics, banking and retail. Two of the first services Kings will be offering with use of Digital Barriers products include a Remote Video Response Centre and a dedicated monitoring centre providing 24/7 support. Pictured left to right are Neil Hendry, VP EMEA at Digital Barriers; and Bob Forsyth, CEO, Kings Secure Technologies.

We’re delighted to have signed this strategic agreement which opens up a new channel through which commercial organisations can take advantage of our software solutions and services.”
