Fully integrated within Axis end-to-end solutions, these scalable products are optimized for both small and large installations, according to the company. With intelligence on the edge, they can internally handle all tasks related to door access — even if the network is down.
Capable of storing up to 250k credentials and 250k event logs per unit, Axis says these products ensure flexible and secure authentication using various credentials such as PIN codes and dynamic QR codes for visitor access and license plates verification for vehicle access.

Connectivity Hub for Integration of Sensors and Audio
The AXIS D3100 Connectivity Hub allows for secure integration of sensors and audio equipment into network systems. With a microphone, a speaker, or both connected, Axis says this cost-efficient device helps increase scene awareness through high-quality audio.
The product can be integrated with a broad range of non-visual sensors to trigger alarms and events in the system. Supporting audio recording, streaming, and audio analytics, it is well-suited for systems that don’t have such capabilities or require additional — enabling different use cases in crime prevention, protection, and forensics.

AXIS Object Analytics
The new AXIS Object Analytics time-in-area feature, beta version, is available as part of the latest release of AXIS Object Analytics. This smart feature can be used to trigger an event whenever an object stays in a monitored area longer than a user-defined time, for example to detect loitering.
AXIS Object Analytics comes preinstalled on compatible Axis network cameras. It uses AI-based algorithms and behavioral conditions to analyze the scene and spatial behavior of the objects within, ignoring common irrelevant sources of unwanted events.
Designed to enable proactive monitoring, and access to actionable insights, users can focus only on objects of interest and events that need attention, according to the company.
Key features include:
- Edge-based video analytics
- Classifies humans and vehicles
- Runs multiple scenarios simultaneously
