Boeing Wins Border Contract
From Red Herring:
Boeing has won a contract estimated to be worth $2.5 billion on securing America's borders. Boeing is planning to install a network of cameras and sensors for the Secure Border Initiative. For background, see 1, 2, and 3.
This is going to support and create a whole range of advance surveillance technologies, including smart cameras. The Red Herring article points out that there are lots of companies moving into the video analytics market.
It also mentions several companies developing smart camera technology that venture capitalists have been supporting:
Agentvi (formerly Aspectus), IntelliVid, Covi, VideoNext, Vigilos, Aspectus, 3VR Security, and EnVysion
