Motorola Solutions named City Surveillance Partner of the Year

Motorola Solutions has received the 2012 North America City Surveillance Partner of the Year award by Axis Communications during the seventh annual Axis Channel Convergence Conference (ACCC) held in Chicago.

Motorola received the honour for its commitment to providing real-time video intelligence (RTVI) for public safety agencies. The award mentions the company’s city surveillance technology in and around the city of Chicago.

In addition to Chicago, the company has implemented video solution projects in cities across the country including Los Angeles, Atlanta and Cleveland, as well as projects around the world. The video solutions provide first responders a real-time, 24/7 visual of their communities. Cameras are positioned in strategic locations throughout the city to provide video back to a command centre.

Scott Dunn, director of business development, Axis Communications said, “We are pleased to be working with a world-class organisation such as Motorola Solutions in the city surveillance space, a segment where high-quality, reliable IP video is absolutely critical for law enforcement and government agencies. Their expertise and experience working with law enforcement uniquely positions them as a partner that can deliver Axis’ solutions to provide a safer city environment for everyone.”

Bruce Brda, senior vice president, Global Solutions and Services, Motorola Solutions said, “Many government agencies are realising video solutions can improve the overall safety and effectiveness of public safety workers. Motorola Solutions’ end-to-end approach with video is helping keep communities safer across the globe.”
