ORTUS AI Launches X.zone for Real-Time Spatial Monitoring on Existing Cameras

ORTUS AI's X.zone creates real-time detection zones on existing cameras via RTSP and ONVIF, issuing sub-second alerts when people or objects enter restricted areas.

ORTUS AI has launched X.zone, a spatial monitoring feature that creates real-time detection zones on existing surveillance cameras. According to the product announcement, the software connects to cameras through standard RTSP and ONVIF protocols, allowing operators to define virtual zones on live video feeds and receive sub-second alerts when people or objects enter restricted areas.

The product targets industrial and construction sites that lack dedicated safety sensors, reusing existing camera infrastructure instead of requiring new hardware installations. ORTUS states that operators can redraw or update zone configurations on their own, adjusting restricted areas as site layouts change over the course of a project. Performance figures cited in the release, including the sub-second alert time, are vendor claims and have not been independently verified. The launch adds to a recent series of releases in AI-based workplace safety monitoring.
