TRASSIR AI-Powered CCTV Cameras
I’ll admit it—I’m not a tech-savvy person. For years, I resisted upgrading to a smartphone, stubbornly clinging to the belief that my “mulika mwizi” which was capable of calls, SMS, and MPESA, was more than enough. Back in 2011 and 2012, I saw no reason to adapt to the changing times. After all, why fix what wasn’t broken?
But time has taught me a valuable lesson: you can’t fight progress. A wise man once said, “You cannot resist an idea whose time has come.” And in high school, the timeless words of Siku Njema reminded us that change is inevitable. Today, as a father of boys who seem born with laptops in hand, I’ve come to understand that mastering IT and basic software skills is far more vital than the long-forgotten art of knitting or crocheting. Watching my sons create and innovate has given me a glimpse into the future—and it’s exciting.
Recently, I attended a demo showcasing Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology integrated into everyday CCTV cameras, courtesy of TRASSIR https://trassir.com/. Until then, I hadn’t considered how artificial intelligence could revolutionize property and facilities management. But what I discovered left me amazed.
Imagine your standard CCTV camera equipped with a “brain.” It’s no longer just passively recording—it’s actively working. These AI-enhanced cameras can:
- Find lost items.
- Send alerts when a desk is left unattended.
- Count people in a queue or cars in a parking lot.
- Monitor bags on conveyor belts.
- Ensure workers are wearing proper uniforms or PPE in designated areas.
- Create digital boundaries that trigger alerts if someone enters a restricted zone.
And yes, they can even “catch” individuals sneaking into server rooms or cash offices, foiling thefts or tampering attempts in real time. It sounds like something out of a sci-fi movie, but it’s happening now.
Securing a large perimeter comes with significant challenges. You’d need physical barriers, guards constantly monitoring countless tiny screens 24/7, and even trained dogs—yet security breaches still happen. After all, humans have their limitations, often distracted by fatigue, betting apps, or even sneaking in a YouTube break on the office Wi-Fi. This is where AI becomes a game-changer, tirelessly enhancing security, eliminating distractions, and cutting costs while providing round-the-clock vigilance.
If you’re still dealing with theft or spending a fortune on guards and security systems that don’t measure up, it’s time to reimagine your approach. The future of real estate security is here—are you ready to embrace it?
