Unifi Protect is not just a camera system — it is an AI-powered physical security platform. From on-camera machine learning that detects people, vehicles, faces, and license plates in real time, to intelligent alerts that eliminate false alarms, Unifi Protect brings enterprise-grade intelligence to businesses of every size. ProCTS designs and deploys Unifi Protect for businesses in Wilmington, NC and the surrounding region.
AI Detection Built Into the Camera
Many cameras in the Unifi Protect lineup include dedicated AI processing chips that run machine learning models directly on the device — no cloud dependency required. These cameras can distinguish between a person, a vehicle, an animal, and general motion at the edge, before footage ever reaches your recorder. The result is dramatically fewer false alerts and far more actionable notifications.
License Plate Recognition (LPR)
Unifi Protect's AI-G4 Bullet Pro and compatible cameras support on-camera license plate recognition. The system reads and logs plate numbers in real time, allowing you to search recorded footage by plate, set alerts for specific vehicles, and maintain an automatic log of every vehicle that enters or exits your property — without any third-party software or subscription.
Face Detection & Recognition
Select Unifi Protect cameras support AI-powered face detection, identifying when a human face is present in frame and enabling face-based search across recorded footage. Combined with Unifi Access, recognized faces can be linked to access credentials — creating a unified identity layer across your physical security environment.
Smart Detection & Intelligent Alerts
Unifi Protect's smart detection goes beyond simple motion zones. The system classifies detected objects — person, vehicle, animal, package — and lets you configure alerts based on exactly what matters to your business. A delivery alert when a package is left at the door. A vehicle alert in a restricted lot after hours. Person detection at a server room entrance. Each alert is precise, reducing notification fatigue while keeping you informed of what actually matters.
Professional IP Cameras for Every Environment
The Unifi Protect lineup spans indoor, outdoor, dome, bullet, turret, and fisheye form factors — including the AI-G4 Instant, AI-G4 Pro, AI-G5 Bullet, AI-G5 Dome, and AI-G5 Turret Ultra. All feature high-resolution imaging, wide dynamic range, and infrared or color night vision. Whether you are monitoring a parking structure, a warehouse floor, a retail entrance, or a server room, there is a purpose-built Unifi camera for the application.
Local Recording — No Cloud Subscription Required
Unifi Protect stores footage locally on a Cloud Key Gen2 Plus or Unifi Network Video Recorder (UNVR or UNVR Pro), keeping your video data on-premises and under your control. There are no mandatory cloud fees or per-camera subscription costs. Storage scales with your retention requirements — from days to months of continuous recording across your entire camera deployment.
Remote Viewing & Management from Anywhere
The Unifi Protect mobile app provides live and recorded video access from any smartphone or tablet, anywhere in the world. Review AI-flagged events, search footage by detection type, check live feeds, and manage camera settings remotely — without a VPN or complex network configuration.
Integrated with Your Unifi Network & Access Control
Unifi Protect runs on the same platform as your Unifi network and Unifi Access door control. Cameras are powered via your existing Unifi PoE switches, door events in Unifi Access automatically surface linked camera clips, and everything is managed from a single Unifi console. There is no separate NVR software, no siloed access control system — just one unified physical security and network platform.
