Case Study Supports The Rapid Adoption Of Automated Video Surveillance

Remote video monitoring (RVM) is a widely accepted, cost-effective solution for protecting outdoor assets and buildings from trespassing, vandalism and theft.  It’s a service-based security model where RVM providers install commodity cameras, use video analytics, and rely on monitoring personnel to detect events, sound alarms, and dispatch the police.  But not all RVM solutions and providers are created equal. 


iDter, which stands for Intelligent & Immediate Deterrence, is a Silicon Valley-based software and hardware company leading the evolution of RVM into something smarter: Automated Video Monitoring (AVM). AVM is a more advanced subset of RVM that leverages automation technology to eliminate missed detections and drive trespassers away with immediate, unpredictable, and configurable deterrence reactions–before damages are incurred. 


Where iDter AVM Is Being Used


iDter’s AVM solution is actively being installed at:


  • Auto and truck dealerships

  • Vehicle repair centers

  • Tractor and equipment dealerships

  • Construction sites

  • Storage facilities

  • Warehouses and logistics centers

These are all high-risk environments for outdoor asset theft. Thanks to the effectiveness of iDter’s system, its average annual growth rate over the past two years has exceeded 200%—driven by strong results, transparent performance metrics, and a high rate of repeat purchases.




Case Study Results: Real Data From 1,000 Niō Guardians


The effectiveness of iDter’s AVM system is built around its ability to immediately respond to trespassing with several steps of escalating deterrence responses. This includes the orchestration of multiple Niō devices that are strategically installed throughout the property to maximize coverage and deterrence. In a recent case study across approximately 1,000 installed Niō Guardian cameras, iDter delivered measurable improvements in key security metrics:


  • 73% reduction in trespassing events, from an average of 11 to 3 per month

  • 98.1% deterrence success rate using fully automated protocols

  • 47% reduction in the need to dispatch the police within the first 6 months





What Sets iDter Apart From Traditional RVM Providers


If you’ve been exploring the RVM solutions, you’ve likely seen a variety of options and iterations of RVM. A common weakness of traditional RVM solutions is their reliance on human attention and assessment, which often results in missed detections and delayed responses to intrusions. Only iDter has a true AVM solution that’s designed from the ground up using the latest technology to provide unparalleled protection for your property and assets. 


Vertically Integrated For Maximum Performance

Unlike providers who install generic cameras and outsource monitoring, iDter is vertically integrated—meaning we design and control every part of the solution:

  • Niō Guardian Devices: Intelligent, AI-powered, 4K camera systems for immediate detection and deterrence

  • Patented AVM Technology: Backed by 35 granted patents

  • Custom Software: Including firmware, cloud utilities, and mobile apps

  • End-to-End Services: Includes installation, event monitoring, police dispatch, system optimization, and ongoing support

Picture a Niō Guardian like a guard standing just 10 feet away from a trespasser, shouting through a 120 dB speaker, with strobing police-style lights flashing overhead. This is the kind of presence no intruder wants to face—and it’s unmatched by traditional surveillance.
