Combined Taut-Wire / Vibration Fence
Magal Security Systems (Israel)
|
The
basic security fence utilized along the Israeli
Buffer Zone and northern border was built by Magal Security Systems and
consists of a combination of taut wire and vibration sensors, to reduce false
alarms. The fence is built in 50 meter segments, which are activated by any type
of tampering or passage attempt. Magal is currently proposing an installation of
video cameras, which will cover every segment, and be triggered by alarms of the
local segment, thus sending a real-time view of the segment, for visual
verification of the event. The image captured by the camera can be transmitted
immediately to security forces that rush to the area, to engage the
infiltrators. Magal is also providing a similar system for perimeter defense
system, utilizing a number of pan mounted cameras, which are automatically aimed
at the segment that triggered the alarm. Magal offers such solutions as a low
cost addition to security perimeter defenses, where the size of the installation
or budget for security measures prohibits the use of video motion detection
systems. |
