Agent VI announced that its analytics have been certified by i-LIDs. i-LIDS provide the UK government's benchmark for video analytics. i-LIDS offers a variety of certifications.
Agent VI reports that is certification is for primary detection in sterile zones. From what I know of i-LIDS, there is primary and secondary detection. Primary is more impressive because it indicates that the analytic can be used by itself. Note: that it is certified for use in strerile zones which can be an issue for many deployments where movement will occur.
There's a debate about the meaning and important of i-LIDS certification. My understanding is that it is important for UK projects (as it is a necessary requirement for some projects).
