Wisdom Platform

All too often, security mangers are faced with a managing a complex collection of disparate and functionally specific security sensors; such as, video, access control, alarm sensor systems, or perimeter protection, often loosely integrated and designed to present a different security picture.  WISDOM unifies these commonly used security systems and presents a Unified Situational Awareness Picture. 

Wisdom is 4D Security Solutions open architecture comprehensive multiple source geo-spatial command and control system back-bone spanning the PSIM and C4IS markets. Wisdom provides security managers with the ability to: 

• Better Manage Security Operations


• Assist with security Planning


• Continuously Improve

Wisdom goes beyond simple integration of sensors and systems by providing background situational analysis and displaying of objects of interest and incidents on multi-layered maps.  Wisdom’s advanced system algorithms include:

• Data Fusion – Combining data from multiple sources and applying inference and  interpolation techniques to gain more information than simple integration provides


• Object of Interest Correlation – Unifies multiple sensor identification of a single object of interest, thus reducing incident management and lowering false alarms  


• Object Clustering/Splitting –  Combines objects of low interest into a single map icon to lower screen clutter, while splitting out objects of high interest for further investigation


• Sensor Gap Analysis – Automatically identifies a failure in one sensor – creating sensor coverage gap – and re-tasks other sensors such as a PTZ camera, to close the sensor gap


• Event Correlation – Identifies seemingly  dissimilar events and notifies operator that these may be  related, this helps to ignore distractions and identify the security threat


• 24X 7 365 Operation - WisdomS incorporates IR and thermal camera capability, both short range and long range stabilized platforms; as well as, RADAR sweeps ;  to provide 100% eyes on 100% of the time

Wisdom’s extensive decision support tools assist the system operator in performing a variety of tasks during an incident, increasing operator efficiency and effectiveness.  

• Field Operations Guide – Step-by-step and site specific standard operation procedures and work flow management is augmented with the ability to perform actions such as interact with third party systems, dispatch personnel, and issue SMS or e-mail messages.  All actions are recorded for forensic analysis of incident handling.


• Dispatching – Communicate either through CAD (computer aided dispatch) or other system to deploy personnel to the incident 


• Emergency Routing – Provide routing information to personnel responding to an incident


• Intercept Course Potting – Provide intercept course plotting for marine units as a navigation aid

Wisdom’s viewing solution is designed for use as a single monitor working environment, combining many different  and less detailed operations on one monitor or as multiple monitor operating environment putting various operations with greater detail on multiple monitors   Operational views include:

• USAP – Unified Situational Awareness Picture


• Incident Management – Identifies and manages multiple incidents simultaneously


• Video Display  - Single or multiple view of cameras connected to the system


• Administration – System set up and monitoring, including management dashboards


• Mailbox – Interwork station operator communication system

The viewing solution features

• Comprehensive GIS – geospatial information system capabilities


• 2 Dimensional maps device (camera, access control, RADAR, etc) location, incident location, camera field of view (FOV) analysis and camera range/coverage analysis


• 3 Dimensional maps for better situational awareness, area recognition, video camera extended field of view with FOV obstruction analysis tool and act as a training aid


• Private layers – Items of interest viewed exclusively at a particular workstation, assists with cross jurisdiction command and control


• Public Layers – Items of interested for all workstations


• Site Hierarchy – Identifies and annotates areas on the map, multiple levels permit showing/hiding of annotations to specific workstations


• Video Overlay – Incident related video is automatically displayed. Permits viewing of live and recorded video scenes


• Immersive Video  – Video from security or police vehicle displayed on screen from  the vehicle point of view providing operator with better situational awareness


• Video Display  - Single or multiple view of cameras connected to the system


• Administration – System set up and monitoring, including management dashboards


• Mailbox – Interwork station operator communication system

Wisdom’s viewing solution goes beyond the normal display of information as in a GUI – graphic user interface, employing the science of HMI (human-machine-interface) technology to immerse the operator and extend his capabilities.

• Colors selected for use in low light security room environments


• Contrasting colors highlight areas of interest to draw the operators attention


• Web-esque design provide familiar feel and feel


• Tabbed operational view selection


• Feature ribbon


• Tool bar

Wisdom includes a wide array of plug-ins that further enhances WISDOM’s ability to provide world class computer aided command and control system.  These include WisdomTrainer providing “What if” Scenario and sensor simulation; WisdomMobile for in vehicle USAP experience and WisdomHandHeld  for “feet on the street” interaction. 

All combined, Wisdom provides security managers the ability to manage complex, disparate and often contraindicating security sensors and systems.  Utilizing an open architecture enterprise class system backbone and WisdomS Unified Situational Awareness Picture – operator’s now have the unique ability to actually operate 24X7 and 365 more effectively and efficiently and to assist in security producer planning and practice – for local or nationwide deployment.

Wisdom truly supplies information intelligence to apply sound judgment to all security system needs.
