How to set up a security project with LiDAR in 5 steps
Planning a security system can be complex, but it doesn’t have to be.
Our 5-step guide shows you how to design and implement a 3D LiDAR-based security solution efficiently and effectively. From assessing your site and defining security zones to installing LiDAR sensors and integrating the data output into your security network, the guide helps you every step of the way. Whether you’re a security integrator or an end user, this practical resource provides a clear roadmap to get your LiDAR project up and running.
1. Project Assessment
Every successful security project starts with a solid understanding of its requirements. This phase focuses on analyzing the site, defining protection goals, identifying potential sources of false alarms, and determining how LiDAR technology can best complement the existing security setup.
2. Application Simulation
Before installation begins, virtual simulations help visualize sensor coverage and performance. This step ensures that all relevant areas are monitored efficiently and supports precise planning of the system layout.
3. Sensor Installation
This step focuses on the physical setup of the LiDAR sensors. Parameters such as alignment, field of view, and scan pattern have to be configured to match the site’s specific requirements and ensure optimal detection performance.
4. Security Zone Configuration
Once the sensors are installed, security zones are defined directly in the sensor’s web interface. Different zone types can be created to match the application, while detection parameters and alarm logic are fine-tuned to ensure accurate object recognition and minimize false alarms.
5. Data Integration
In the final step, sensor data and alarm events are connected with existing systems, such as video management systems. This ensures the LiDAR data is perfectly aligned with the user’s IT and security environment.
