RISCO UK launch VuPoint AI - next-generation video surveillance

Friday 19 December 2025 - BSIA COMMS

RISCO has introduced VuPoint AI, a fully AI-powered video surveillance ecosystem engineered to provide real-time intelligence, proactive detection, and complete integration with the wider RISCO Cloud and alarm portfolio. Designed for residential, commercial, and enterprise-level environments, VuPoint AI represents a major step forward from traditional CCTV, shifting from passive recording to predictive, event-driven security.

A reVU-lution in smart surveillance

VuPoint AI combines AI cameras, intelligent analytics, alarm system integration, and cloud-connected management to deliver a unified, always on security network. RISCO positions this system as more than surveillance; instead offering adaptive, automated risk detection powered by advanced scene interpretation and machine learning. 

Key capabilities include:

  • Advanced object detection & automated tracking: Cameras interpret scenes to identify anomalies, unusual movement, or suspicious behaviour.
  • AI-driven decisioning: Users define rules; cameras analyse and trigger alerts based on contextual understanding, not simple motion. 
  • Full integration with RISCO Alarm & Security Systems: Creates a 360° intrusion + video solution for total situational awareness. 
  • Cloud-connected platform: Managed via the intuitive iRISCO app, enabling remote administration, event review, and system configuration. 

Proactive protection through AI

VuPoint AI is purpose-built not only to record incidents, but to prevent them with active, real-time interventions:

Active Deterrence

  • High-brightness white/blue/red lights
  • Audible siren-based warnings
  • Designed to scare away intruders before escalation

Full-Colour Vision, Day & Night

  • 4MP/5MP colour imaging even in low-light scenes
  • Ensures clear identification of people and vehicles

Smart Analytics Engine

VuPoint AI supports a suite of deep-learning analytics, including:

  • Crowd detection (capacity thresholds)
  • Face recognition (watchlist-based alerting)
  • Pedestrian & vehicle classification
  • Line-crossing detection
  • License plate recognition
  • Perimeter/area intrusion detection

These capabilities allow users to tailor behaviour-based monitoring strategies, reduce false alarms, and enhance operator efficiency.

Seamless ecosystem integration

All VuPoint AI cameras are natively compatible with the broader RISCO ecosystem, enabling installers to offer customers:

  • Unified alarm + video management
  • Cloud-backed storage and evidence retrieval
  • Remote management for installers and ARC partners
  • Scalable deployment across homes, SMEs, and multi?site estates

This aligns with existing RISCO technologies already referenced within BSIA materials, where VuPoint has been noted as a best?practice live video verification add-on to RISCO intrusion panels. 

Camera range: models for every installation

VuPoint AI supports multiple camera types suitable for differing environments:

  • Cube/Indoor Cameras: compact AI-enabled cameras ideal for offices, reception areas and homes.
  • Bullet Cameras: weather-resistant, full-colour outdoor monitoring with deterrence lighting.
  • PT Cameras: pan/tilt intelligence for wide-area coverage and human-tracking capabilities.
  • Wi-Fi or PoE variants: allowing quick setup and flexibility.

Each model features:

  • AI classification (human/vehicle)
  • Full-colour night imaging
  • Two-way audio (Wi-Fi models)
  • Smart alerts via the RISCO Cloud

Use cases across the security industry

Residential

  • Smart perimeter alerts
  • Package theft deterrence
  • Automated monitoring of entrances and driveways

Commercial & Industrial

  • Real-time threat detection for retail, warehousing, logistics and office settings
  • Vehicle tracking and LPR for restricted zones
  • People-flow and occupancy analysis

Monitoring Stations

  • Pairs with RISCO intrusion systems to visually verify alarms, reducing false dispatches
  • Adds clarity to events with pre and post incident footage

Why this matters for BSIA members

The addition of AI-powered video intelligence aligns directly with the BSIA’s ongoing focus on raising industry standards, advancing responsible and effective use of surveillance technologies, and ensuring members have access to innovative, scalable solutions.

VuPoint’s evolution into an AI-capable platform reflects a growing expectation for next-generation, tech-centric product coverage, giving installers, ARCs, integrators and end-users a future-ready, cloud-driven surveillance ecosystem by offering proactive protection, operational efficiency, and deep intelligence.
