ADT Caps Enhances Unmanned Parking Lot Safety with AI Technology

Utilizing AI Voice and Sound Analysis Technology
Automatic CCTV Rotation After Detecting Abnormal Sounds such as Emergency Calls and Screams

ADT Caps, the physical security brand of SK Shieldus, announced on the 30th that it will pilot the application of artificial intelligence (AI) voice and sound analysis technology to its unmanned parking management service (TMAP Parking by ADT Caps).

This new service features real-time analysis of sounds occurring in parking lots, significantly enhancing the ability to respond during the 'golden time' in the event of a crime or safety incident. ADT Caps has partnered with Cranberry, a company specializing in sound analysis, to integrate AI voice and sound analysis technology into existing unmanned parking lots and establish a real-time risk response system. This technology can analyze various abnormal sounds, including emergency calls such as "Help," screams, collision noises, glass breaking, car horns, and explosions.

The system can analyze abnormal sounds from up to 30 meters away and automatically adjusts sensitivity based on ambient noise, maintaining a high accuracy rate of over 95% in various environments. The detection range and conditions can be customized on-site according to the type of parking lot, allowing for flexible application in locations ranging from large supermarkets to school zones and residential alleys.

When an abnormal sound is detected, the CCTV camera automatically rotates toward the direction of the sound, and an immediate alert is sent to the on-site control room. The control room can monitor the situation in real time and, if necessary, dispatch personnel to respond on-site. This represents a shift from the traditional method of reviewing footage after an incident has occurred, enabling real-time response from the moment a risk arises.

ADT Caps will begin pilot operations of this technology in select parking lots managed by its unmanned parking management service during the first half of this year. The company especially expects to provide a safer parking environment for female drivers and customers using the facilities alone at night.

Jang Woongjun, Head of Physical Security at SK Shieldus (Vice President), stated, "ADT Caps plans to go beyond simple operational convenience by introducing AI voice and sound analysis technology to its unmanned parking management service, establishing a security system capable of proactive response to emergencies." He added, "We will continue to enhance our security standards so that customers can use parking lots with peace of mind."
