Traditional perimeter security relies on disjointed cameras and sensors that generate overwhelming false positives from weather and wildlife. A Physical Intelligence Layer solves this by fusing data from existing cameras, radar, and fiber-optic sensors into a single edge-computing platform. This autonomous system cross-verifies threats in real-time, eliminating alert fatigue and enabling automated, logic-based responses for remote and critical infrastructure.
