Combine audio and video data for more reliable insights
Included at no extra cost with compatible devices
This AI-powered edge analytics detects critical sounds, such as breaking glass, screams and shouts, even with the audio stream disabled. It delivers instant, actionable insights, adding an extra layer of security to your solution.
More insights from your device
AXIS Audio Analytics, designed for areas with moderate noise levels, uses AI to detect sounds such as screams, shouts, and breaking glass. Recognizing these sound patterns enables alerts to security personnel, who can quickly assess potential violence, harassment, or unauthorized entry attempts. With adaptive audio detection, it also triggers alarms in response to sudden volume spikes. When paired with video analytics, it provides additional confirmation of what’s happening in a scene.
Safeguard privacy – by default
With the audio stream off, AXIS Audio Analytics still allows you to receive alerts and track sound events, as only metadata is extracted from the video. Audio streaming is turned off by default to protect privacy, and you can easily switch it on or off as needed. This gives you control over audio access while keeping things simple.
Effective glass break detection
AXIS Audio Analytics detects glass break sounds from most types of glass – such as annealed, heat-strengthened, laminated, and fully tempered – within 10 meters in open spaces. Unlike most window sensors that only detect attempts to open windows, glass break detection is highly effective during the act of breaking or shattering glass. Alerts are sent instantly, helping safeguard your property and assets.
Insightful audio metadata
AXIS Audio Analytics is built into AXIS OS at no extra cost and is available on cameras with acoustic sensors. The intuitive interface allows you to quickly set up and activate the features you need. The generated metadata from sound events can be displayed on a dashboard, providing clear and actionable insights.
