Perimeter intrusion detection

A fence-mounted perimeter intrusion detection system installed on a chain link fence.

A perimeter intrusion detection system (PIDS) is a device or sensor that detects the presence of an intruder attempting to breach the physical perimeter of a property, building, or other secured area.[1][2] A PIDS is typically deployed as part of an overall security system and is often found in high-security environments such as correctional facilities, airports,[3] military bases, and nuclear plants.[4]
