Security & Systems
Early fire, smoke and intrusion detection. Anywhere.
Solar-powered analytical towers that combine thermal imaging and AI video analytics to spot heat, smoke and intruders within seconds — with no grid power, fuel or cabling.
Modern fires start with heat — not flames.
Suitable for
- Construction
- Solar farms & renewables
- Remote infrastructure
- Utilities & substations
- Vacant land
- Critical assets
By the time a flame is visible, the damage has begun. Our towers watch for the earlier signs — rising heat signatures and real smoke plumes — and raise the alarm within seconds.
Built for solar farms, substations, construction sites and vacant land: the places where conventional security is impractical and the cost of a missed incident is highest.

How the towers detect fire and smoke
Thermal heat detection
Thermal cameras read infrared heat signatures, finding hotspots and overheating equipment before flames appear — in darkness, fog or smoke.
AI video analytics
Live footage is analysed continuously to recognise genuine smoke and fire behaviour, while filtering out dust, steam and weather.
Edge processing
All AI runs on the tower itself, so alerts are near-instant with no cloud delay.
Optional linear heat detection
LHD cable triggers an alarm when temperatures exceed safe thresholds — ideal for large photovoltaic arrays.
Watch a tower catch a fault before it becomes a fire.
Drag the timeline, or press play. This is how thermal imaging and on-tower AI turn a hidden hotspot into a control-room alert — in seconds.
Illustrative simulation of the detection sequence. Real-world timings depend on site conditions.
Fully autonomous. Completely off-grid.
Engineered for sites where traditional security simply is not viable.

Why Servo towers
Rapid deployment
Operational in 20–60 minutes and easily repositioned as your site layout changes.
Extreme visibility
High-mounted PTZ cameras with up to 360° coverage — far more effective than ground patrols.
Fewer false alarms
AI filters out wildlife, debris and environmental noise, so only genuine threats are escalated.

Review
Clear reporting against agreed KPIs, with changes made as your site evolves.
What clients say about our analytical cctv towers.
I have used Servo on my last two projects for site security and CCTV and found them excellent and effective. On my last project in the centre of Leeds, all intruders were identified and dealt with by the police before they could do any damage — I was confident we were in safe hands.
We had Servo on a scheme where the security requirements were ever-changing. Every change was dealt with instantly, in a professional and timely manner.
