In this ever-changing world, the tools that are considered emerging technologies change almost constantly–and it’s important for security integrators to stay on top of the market or they’ll be left behind by those who do.
Whether your customers are looking to incorporate Emerging AI into their security solutions or considering a switch to cloud-based video surveillance offerings, it’s the job of a security integrator to help them understand how to get there and what it means when they do.
SSI’s first Emerging Technologies Deep Dive, set to be published in the June print issue of Commercial Integrator + Security Sales & Integration explores some of the latest developments that are being added to security integrators’ toolboxes these days–and asks them to tell us what else could be on the horizon for them.
“Security Sales & Integration will always cover the bread-and-butter categories that security dealers, installers and integrators build their businesses on,” says Dan Ferrisi, group editor, commercial and security, at Emerald. “But we believe it’s equally important — if not even more so — to highlight emerging technologies that could yield even greater profitability for integrators tomorrow, while also ensuring their clients enjoy next-level safety and security.
“That’s why we’re planning to explore buzzy topics like edge AI, real-time analytics, machine learning, gun detection, cloud storage and hybrid cloud/on-prem workflows. We believe that this report will be revelatory for integrators looking to widen their aperture and serve their clients better,” he says.
