How Can Wi-Fi Sensing Improve Secondary Verification?
The U.S. Department of Justice reports that 94-98% of police responses to security alarms are false, costing over $1 billion annually. False alarms, triggered by non-threatening events like shadows or pets, lead to unnecessary police dispatches, operational inefficiencies, fines, and customer dissatisfaction. Secondary verification, which uses multiple data points to confirm alarms, addresses this by reducing reliance on single sensors and minimizing errors. AVS-01, a standard by The Monitoring Association, mandates procedural verification steps to ensure alarm reliability, utilizing data from multiple sensors, video, and audio systems to categorize alarms by priority. Wi-Fi Sensing enhances secondary verification by detecting motion through Wi-Fi signal disruptions, confirming human presence and reducing false alarms. It integrates easily into existing systems, enhancing reliability without complex installations. Advanced algorithms further refine motion detection, filtering out non-threatening movements. This technology streamlines threat detection, improves response times, and boosts customer trust in security systems.
