VMS integration

Routing safety events into the video management system operators already use.

What it means

VMS integration connects edge AI events to the video management system, such as Genetec Security Center or Milestone XProtect. The goal is to raise usable alarms without forcing operators into a separate tool.

Why it matters

A detection that does not reach the existing response workflow is usually a demo, not an operating system.

Evaluation questions

Where do operators acknowledge alerts today?

Can the AI event include camera, zone, timestamp, and event type?

Can the VMS bookmark or retain the relevant clip?
