Who is i-PRO?
i-PRO was created in October 2019 from Panasonic's Security Systems Business Division, with co-investment from Polaris Capital Group. Since 2022 the company has been called i-PRO Co., Ltd. The head office is in Tokyo; the European headquarters, i-PRO EMEA B.V., has been in Amsterdam since 2021.
The technology is older than the name. In 1957, the central research lab of Matsushita Electric, later Panasonic, developed a professional security camera. The i-PRO series appeared in 2005. That is why i-PRO proudly refers to 'our 60-year heritage in the security industry'.
Today i-PRO focuses on cameras that analyse images themselves using artificial intelligence (edge AI). Since October 2025, i-PRO has had its own factory in Saga, Japan. In 2025, by its own account, it was the first in the security industry to achieve ISO/IEC 42001 certification for AI management.

i-PRO makes cameras, software and recorders for professional security. These are the product families we work with most.

Multisensor cameras
Several sensors in one housing for wide overviews, such as car parks, squares and business parks. One camera instead of several separate cameras means fewer masts and cables.
i-PRO Active Guard
Software that makes the cameras' AI data searchable. Since version 3.0 (September 2025), you search recorded footage for people and vehicles in plain language, also from your video management system.
Why choose i-PRO?
i-PRO cameras process images in the camera itself, are built with cyber security as a starting point and work with software from other makers. What this means for you:
