A restricted door standing open and someone waiting outside
Back office of the branch, mid-afternoon. A member of staff opens the restricted-area door with her badge and keeps a hand on the leaf; from the corridor you can see the shelves of files inside. A step away, next to the reader, a second person waits with folded arms. The door has been open for over a minute. That is what IRIS sees: a door open, how long it has been open and two bodies in front of it.

What this camera measures
An alert says something is happening. The reading says how much.
- 1 min 10 sTime the door has been open
- 2Bodies in front of the door
- 1Openings of the door
- 17:24Time of the alert

The figures on this screen are an example from the illustration, not any client's measurement.
The rule
You decide once. IRIS applies it always.
If
the restricted-area door has been open for more than a minute, or more than one body is in front of it while it is open
Then
- alert internal control with the door, the time and how many bodies are in front of it
- save the video from the moment the door was opened
- leave the fact on record so it can be matched against the access log
The instruction that set it up«Tell me when the restricted-area door stays open for more than a minute, or when more than one person is in front of it while it is open.»
What changes
What changes for whoever answers for the branch network
In a branch, the internal doors separate what anyone can see from what only the permitted can see. The access log says which credentials were used, but it does not say how many people were standing there or how long the door stayed open. IRIS supplies that, with its video, and records it without anyone having to watch a screen. Afterwards, whoever reviews access sees in a minute what used to be hours of recording. And a door left open out of convenience stops being invisible.
What people usually ask
Does IRIS read the badge of whoever opens the door?
No. IRIS does not read cards, does not read readers and does not identify anyone. It sees a door leaf open, how long it has been that way and how many bodies are in front of it. Who opened it is known by the access control system; how many people were standing there is known by the camera. Bringing the two together is the job of internal control, which is a person, deciding with both halves of the figure in front of them.
Is the camera accusing anyone of slipping in?
No, and it is not written that way anywhere. The camera does not know whether the person waiting outside is allowed in, whether they are following with an archive trolley or whether they are there for something else. It only says: this door was open for this long and there were two bodies in front of it. Whether that is fine or not is decided by a person, with the access log beside them.
Does IRIS record what is inside the restricted area?
Only if there is a camera inside, and that is for the institution to decide, not us. This camera looks at the corridor: it sees the door, who is standing in front of it and how long it stays open. What can be seen of the inside is what can be seen from outside while the leaf is open, exactly as anyone walking down the corridor would see it.

See it for yourself
You set the rule once. IRIS applies it every time.
You will see a summary of the interface, played step by step and hands-free. Each round starts with another case. The complete tool does not fit in a demo.
- The rule gets built
- It goes to every camera
- Published, it watches alone
- And then it fires
Next step
How long before somebody comes down that corridor at four in the morning?
13 cases: 12 raise an alert when something happens and 1 only measure. You see each image as it is, and then with what IRIS understands on top.

And the best part
You can add more cameras;you cannot add more hours to anyone’s day.
Cameras can be multiplied; a person’s hours cannot. IRIS looks at everything coming in and leaves them the one thing no machine does better: deciding what to do.
Tell us your problem and we will say whether IRIS understands it, or not yet.
