The growing number of bank robberies over recent years has increased the banking sector's interest in new technologies in the area of electronic security.
Video surveillance and alarm systems for the banking sector have made notable progress, firstly through the digital storage of imagery, secondly via the transmission of video and alarms over a bank's computer networks, and most recently through high definition cameras and video-generated alarms (video analytics), which includes the detection of number plates and facial recognition.
