Safety & security
Sport brings people together and for major stadiums, it can be as many as tens of thousands of people. Watching over the safety & security of all these individuals is a big responsibility.
Sorama’s Safety & Security solution for smart stadiums applies sound imaging with the Sorama L642 acoustic monitor. Creating a heatmap like visualization of sound.
Smart stadiums are state-of-the-art venues that leverage cutting-edge technology to create immersive fan engagement while prioritizing safety and security.
By prioritizing people’s well-being, you create an environment where fans can fully immerse themselves in the game and entertainment.
Fortunately, modern technology has made crowd management more efficient, especially in large venues like sport stadiums. Through the integration of connected devices and various sensor technologies, you now have the ability to monitor the crowd on multiple levels, intervening only when necessary.
Just imagine the possibilities: enhancing fan engagement within the stands, whiloe simultaneously ensuring peoples safety and security.
Our acoustic sensor technology offers various applications within smart stadiums including fan engagement, chant classifying, smart lightning and safety & security. These solutions are specifically designed to foster a positive and stimulating atmosphere for fans and encouraging athlete performance and keeping sponsors satisfied.
Anomaly Detection in stadiums
Managing the well being of thousands of sports fans, is a challenging task when you are located in the control room without a direct outlook on the crowd. While many security systems rely mainly on visual tools like network video camera’s and video analytics, incorporating multiple layers of sensor technology can provide a more comprehensive understanding of the stadium environment.
Acoustic monitoring with the Sorama L642, will enable you to monitor a specific area/section and create a heatmap-like visualization of sound. With the help of our acoustic sensor technology, you can even implement zoned operations in the inner, middle and outer stadium areas. The Sorama L642 in combination with chant classifier and anomaly detection creates a high-tech surveillance system that brings additional insights in preventive crowd behavior.
By feeding the algorithm with common club songs and chants, any anomalies in sound patterns will get detected and brought to your attention. This allows you to quickly identify and qualify instances of disruptive behavior such as shouting at friends, racist slurs, or the sound of broken glass. This enables you to take prompt action, whether it is to remove somebody from the stadium, or dispatch the cleaning crew to clear the area of glass shards and preventing any injuries.
Elevate your stadiums safety with cutting-edge anomaly detection and acoustic monitoring and further digitalize crowd management. Ensure the safety and well-being of fans, staff and athletes while creating an exceptional sporting atmosphere.

Detecting loud vehicles
Noise monitoring
Electric vehicle classification
Vehicle counting
Detecting loud vehicles
Loud vehicles are responsible for a lot of traffic noise. But not all loud vehicles are illegal.
Whether it’s heavy trucks or super cars, the noise could be explained by anti social driving behavior or old asphalt. Enabling cities to adjust the environment to reduce traffic noise.
Noise monitoring
Often traffic noise is not caused by the vehicles, but rather the environmental factors such as damaged asphalt or gusts of wind. Occasional measuring will not give you representative understanding of the situation, but monitoring will provide a 24/7 visual insight.
Gaining insights by continuously monitoring the traffic location, will provide visual and easy-to-interpret data to adjust and improve the traffic situation. Such as road repair, installing a sound barrier or instating a new regulation for less noisy car tyres.
Electric vehicle classification
With todays diversity on the road, it can be difficult to identify the type of vehicle associated with traffic noise. By classifying the vehicles into specific categories such as trucks, caravans or electric vehicles it becomes easier to for instance enforce regulation for transport in a harbor or zero emission zones.
Vehicle counting
Vehicle counting can be an added value to environmental monitoring against traffic noise. Combining vehicle counting with classification will show data on road use and produce noise within those categories, making the problem solving much more efficient.
VMS Integration
The L642 series is connected and operated through the free Listener Platform Dashboard. A user friendly interface for setup and configuration and provides insights into sound pressure levels and customer configurable sound events.
To uncover the full potential of the L642’s Safety & Security application, you integrate it in your video management software for a holistic crowd management approach.
