International companies and top retailers worldwide are seeking ways to generate profits from advanced processes in their operations, promotions, merchandising, human resources, and security management.

Video based solutions are not just systems utilized for surveillance, but also as a solution with intelligent and analytical ability, creating great value in the retail environment. Investment on a video based solution is a great opportunity to reap the benefits of more efficient business operations and better security management at the same time.

One of the easiest way to keep eye on potential shoplifting is to have the live video monitoring screens in the proximity of the employees. That way, the store personnel can keep eye on the blind spots of the store while also taking care of their other tasks. The compact video decoders (ECD-series) allow the live video streams to be displayed in an HDMI panel. If anything suspicious has been detected, it is possible to go to the VMS Workstation to playback the incident.

It is also possible to let artificial intelligence assist with the monitoring. With the Missing Object algorithm inside the camera, it will alert immediately when any of the precious demo items has been removed from the shelf.
