Milestone Systems and IQSIGHT have strengthened their partnership with the release of SmartSuite, a consolidated plugin suite designed for the Milestone XProtect platform.
The new integration embeds Intelligent Video Analytics from IQSIGHT directly into XProtect, allowing security teams to configure devices, access analytics, and manage operations from a single interface. SmartSuite significantly simplifies deployment while enhancing situational awareness and investigative capabilities.
Unified Video Intelligence For Security Teams
SmartSuite brings advanced analytics and metadata directly into the XProtect environment. Security operators can now manage hardware configuration, analytics insights, and system operations from a unified interface.
By integrating IQSIGHT analytics into the video management platform, organizations gain deeper forensic insights, faster incident response, and improved operational efficiency. The integration enables security teams to proactively identify potential risks and respond more effectively to critical situations.
Key SmartSuite Capabilities
Enhanced Operator Awareness
SmartSuite surfaces rich metadata directly within XProtect to improve monitoring and investigations.
Key visualization features include:
- Color-coded bounding boxes around detected objects
- Object classification and tracking
- Visual trajectory lines showing movement paths
- Gunshot direction indicators
The integration supports Intelligent Video Analytics Pro (IVA Pro), including Appearance and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) detection analytics.
It also supports Visual Gun Detection technology designed to identify individuals brandishing firearms and immediately alert security personnel, particularly in sensitive environments such as schools.
Faster System Installation
SmartSuite simplifies deployment by consolidating three separate plugins into one unified suite. According to IQSIGHT’s internal testing, this reduces installation time for system integrators by up to 70 percent.
Additional setup features include:
- Panoramic camera de-warping
- Hardware controls such as wipers and infrared illumination
- Project Assistant import capabilities for automatic camera configuration
These capabilities accelerate commissioning and reduce manual setup requirements.
Simplified Device Configuration
Integrators can configure IQSIGHT cameras directly within the XProtect Management Client without switching platforms or logging into each individual device.
The integration also introduces fast event subscription features that make it easier to configure analytics-driven alarms and notifications.
