Frequently Asked Questions

What are Mobile Surveillance Units and how do they work?

They are self-contained camera systems on trailers or portable stands, deployable in minutes. Hakimo's AI Operator monitors their feeds 24/7 and responds to threats without needing on-site guards.

Where are Mobile Surveillance Units typically deployed?

Common locations include construction sites, parking lots, vacant properties, and event venues. They work anywhere you need fast, flexible coverage without permanent infrastructure.

How does Hakimo reduce false positives from mobile units?

Hakimo filters out environmental noise like wind, animals, and lighting shifts before escalating anything. Only confirmed threats trigger a response, keeping your team focused on what matters.

Can Mobile Surveillance Units integrate with an existing security system?

Yes. Hakimo works with most major camera brands and access control systems, so MSUs plug into your existing stack rather than running as a separate solution.

Do Mobile Surveillance Units work in areas without reliable power or internet?

Yes. Units run on solar power with battery backup, so they stay operational through nights and cloudy days. Cellular connectivity means they work even in remote areas with no wired infrastructure.
