Calipsa, a provider of deep-learning powered video analytics for false alarm reduction, has announced the integration of its false alarm filtering platform with Tether Technology. 

Tether is a solution for managing all types of physical security devices across multiple sites, through a cloud platform. The Tetherbox and Tether platform bring all devices into a single visual dashboard. The platform automatically detects and manages all cameras connected to the Local Area Network, stores images from selected cameras and provides a secure VPN to the cloud platform. Tether has an open API platform and will integrate with security devices. As a result, customers will be able to add Calipsa to cameras on Tether in just one click.

With Tether’s ability to reduce operational costs by as much as 70 percent, and Calipsa’s more than 90 percent false alarm reduction rate, the integration offers an extremely effective security solution. The integration is already available via the Tether platform. For existing Tether customers, they can request a demo to find out more about how to get started with Calipsa.

For Tether’s customers using the Tetherbox and platform, using Calipsa's false alarm filtering video analytics software for event-based video surveillance is quick, creating a frictionless solution for the security sector. Benefits for Tether users include:

• Up to 93 percent reduction in event-based video false alarms

• Ability to manage sites, cameras and analytics all via the Tether platform
• Improved operational efficiency with less alarms requiring verification

“I think Tether customers will be very pleased to know that they now have access to Calipsa's AI filtering analytics via the Tether platform. With our 90 percent-plus false alarm reduction, they will be able to make significant enhancements to their video monitoring performance,” said Toby Weatherall, business development manager at Calipsa.

Anita Mistry, head of sales at Tether Technology adds, “Tether are excited to announce this collaboration with Calipsa.
