Botswanian Correctional Facility Brushes Up on Inmate Monitoring



Today most businesses and facilities are using cameras for monitoring and actual imaging to help increase the level of security also to help in keeping peace and order. Botswana’s Department of Correctional Services has taken the initiative to install ioimage video analytics at its First Offenders Correctional Facility in Gabarone, Botswana to control the movement of prisoners and reduce the number of inmate incidents.

The prison, which measures 22,500 sqm, needed a reliable and accurate perimeter protection solution that would integrate with the existing video management system. It also had to be easy to operate and capable of withstanding the region’s harsh weather conditions.

ioimage intelligent video was integrated into a “double knock” detection system that also employs kinetic energy sensors. Since a convict would have to circumvent two security systems in order to escape, the probability of detection is unparalleled. The Botswanian government is currently planning further installations with ioimage intelligent video appliances at four other prisons.
