I recently had an informative conversation with members of PSA’s emerging technology committee around artificial intelligence (AI) and analytics and the role they (will) play in security systems now and in the future. Kevin Henderson is chief operating officer at Lone Star Communications of Arkansas and Josh Akre is the performance engineering manager at Northland Controls of California. Both are in tune with the needs of their end users and well-versed in the technologies needed to meet them.
The conversation covered how quickly the technology is evolving, many practical use cases both are encountering, as well as a deep explanation of how the technology works… for a layperson like myself. The true takeaway was how rapidly security technology will evolve and that, in some cases, the applications are driving the demand.
