Whether you're a big-box retailer or a family-run shop, security remains consistent. Prevention of shoplifting, employee theft, parking lot surveillance, customer safety, and business liability are just a few examples. Retail system installations provide security and convenience that does not adversely affect the customer service experience.
With Essential Video Analytics built-in as standard, retailers are able to re-purpose the massive amounts of streaming data from their security cameras that would otherwise have been redundant. While securing the main entrance to a shop, retailers can gather business statistics like people count simultaneously. Or while securing the cash register area to prevent 'sweet-hearting' the camera's metadata can also be used to trigger an alarm in case the number of people in a queue exceeds the pre-defined threshold. For example, the in-store public address system can be activated to broadcast a personalized message to request another cash register to be opened. An interesting way to optimize in-store security, services and customer experience.
Analytics can also be used to ensure that no one enters or leaves the retail shop using the emergency exit. The camera can also trigger an alarm in case the emergency exit is blocked by an object – increasing the safety of customers and employees.
