Intelygenz develops an app for Prosegur security guards to use Google Glass in their security work

Prosegur security guards will be able to use Google Glass in their daily work thanks to the app being developed by Intelygenz that allows them to take photographs and videos of the location where incidents occur..

The custom software design company specialized in innovation, Intelygenz, has developed, in collaboration with Prosegur, an app for Google Glass designed so that the multinational security guards have the necessary technological equipment to carry out their work in a more efficient and productive way..

This app, presented on 26 March within the framework of the 'Prosegur' event, comprehensive solutions, It has been developed in Java and allows security guards to use Google Glass in their daily work, being able to access sensitive information more quickly and, consequently, reduce intervention times in certain critical situations.

With this application, The security guards will be able to take photographs and videos of the state of the place where they have to go to check an incident.. With these elements as a strong point, and complemented with data such as the status of access to a property or its location., security guards will be able to generate an action report, minimizing administrative procedures and reducing the time spent reporting the incident.

Capture data, generate reports

This app will be used by security guards to capture data in a client's property after the alarm that protects access to it has been activated..

Once activation has occurred, The guard will be able to access data related to the alarm from the Google Glass screen such as its location, the time elapsed between its activation and the processing and sending of the incident, the type of alarm in question and the specific location where it was activated.

After these data, A map will be displayed on the screen with the exact position of the alarm. The map is geopositioned with respect to the four cardinal points, and as the guard moves through the building and changes his direction, the map changes its orientation, making it easier for you to locate the alarm. For this, uses the compass sensor integrated into the glasses.

The guard can request a code from the app to deactivate the alarm, that will be before your eyes in a few seconds. Once this is done, With the glasses you can take photographs or record videos of the status of certain elements, such as the closures of the property or the state of doors and windows, as well as request a code to re-arm the alarm after carrying out the necessary checks.

Data collected through Google Glass is sent to a server, which is also developed in Java, and that stores the information in a PostgreSQL database. From this information, A detailed report of the incident is generated and received by both the corresponding control center and the client..
