Bali CCTV - Security System

CHELMSFORD, Mass. — Axis Communications, the global leader in the network video market, and InterCam Systems, the leading provider of integrated video network solutions, announced today the installation of an advanced IP-surveillance system for the Embassy Suites hotel, located in the financial district of Montreal. This recent installation is the first of six to take place among the Aquilini Investment Groups’ Embassy Suites franchises throughout the eastern seaboard of Canada, including the provinces of Quebec, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.

Leaders of the Embassy Suites Montreal wanted an all-digital, state-of-the-art network security system for the newly built 210-suite hotel, which is located in one of the busiest sections of the city. An IP-based system provides staff remote access to real-time surveillance footage and advanced features that provide added security in the high-traffic hotel. The network security system includes 35 AXIS 207 Network Cameras that offer high quality video and built-in microphones that enable remote users to view and listen in on the surveyed area. Additionally, five AXIS 211 Network Cameras are used for indoor and outdoor surveillance, motion detection based recording and advanced event management.

“An IP-based system coupled with the modern network infrastructure in the new Embassy Suites Montreal is ideal for an effective security system because it maximizes technology while minimizing cost,” said Bob Moore, regional manager in Canada for Axis Communications. “Recent independent research released by Axis Communications shows that the total cost of ownership for an IP surveillance system is always more cost effective than a traditional CCTV or DVR option when a facility has a built-in network.”

A handful of analog cameras had to be installed in the elevators of the hotel because Canadian law prohibits IP ports in the elevators shafts. Security leaders chose AXIS 241Q video encoders to convert the analog video into fully digital video, completing the digital installation.

“The Embassy Suites Montreal is a next generation hotel with next generation technology that will provide the level of security customers will expect from an upscale environment in one of the busiest cities in Canada,” said InterCam Systems President Elie Kadoch. “With the new IP surveillance system, the security staff will be able to access video anywhere, anytime, ensuring the safety of everyone who enters the hotel.”

COPENHAGEN – 11 October 2007. McDonald’s restaurants in Scandinavia are now using an integrated Point Of Sale and IP video surveillance system called CheckView™, which uses the powerful and easy-to-manage XProtect™ software from Milestone Systems, the global leader for open platform IP video management software. The flexible and scalable solution installed by MDIS and IT Gruppen has been developed for the retail sector to help manage shrinkage.

The old surveillance system at several McDonald’s locations in Denmark only focused on traditional security issues, such as theft and vandalism, and did not address the specific and future needs of McDonald’s. The restaurants therefore decided to implement a new system called CheckView from Checkpoint Systems Inc., which is based on the powerful XProtect software from Milestone Systems. This provides integrated features, such as remote clients to monitor retail transactions from the POS system, easily searchable and viewable simultaneously with the IP video images from the cash registers.

The CheckView solution helps McDonald’s better analyze and manage transactions. The Electronic Point of Sale (EPOS) module in the CheckView solution records every transaction from the cash register and combines them with the correlated event video in the Milestone XProtect Transact database by date, time and location. This makes it possible to quickly and easily search transactions by specific information - also remotely over the network. This enables the restaurants to monitor internal theft and administrative errors, for better control of inventory shrinkage.

“The system is incredibly easy to manage, and I am confident that we will receive a fast return on our investment,” says Casper Scheibye, Supervisor of McDonald’s in the Copenhagen suburbs of Valby and Hvidovre. “Our investment has received a lot of attention from other company locations.”

The video part of the solution is 100% digital surveillance using megapixel technology from Axis, IQinVision and Vivotek. Megapixel cameras have significantly higher resolution compared to traditional analog cameras and produce higher quality images for recording and printing. Milestone XProtect IP video software is designed with an open platform, which allows just such a mix of different brands of network cameras for a best-of-breed solution.

“Our old surveillance system no longer met our requirements and needs. One of the main reasons for choosing CheckView with the Milestone IP video platform is the ability to upgrade with the newest technology available. The megapixel cameras improve the quality of the pictures, and we can clearly monitor the restaurant, as well as the drive-through areas. With the CheckPoint/XProtect integration, we can also manage shrinkage much more effectively,” says Casper Scheibye.

“The solution is based primarily on Milestone XProtect Transact. Restaurants are faced with the challenges of theft issues and shrinkage, and the opportunity to be able to manage these issues is very attractive. We have an in-depth knowledge about the retail industry and have been responsible for many CheckView solutions. Our collaboration with MDIS creates the perfect set-up, where we are providing the platform, and MDIS offers the know-how to the restaurants,” says Michael Hygild Sørensen, Account Manager at IT Gruppen.

On-Net Surveillance Systems Inc. (OnSSI), the professional security industry’s leading developer of non-proprietary, open architecture intelligent IP-based video surveillance software solutions, is showcasing its innovative suite of products here at ASIS 2007. OnSSI’s unique approach to IP video surveillance monitoring, control and recording clearly reflects the company’s expertise in Information Technology (IT) resulting in more effective means to manage systems on any scale - from single server to enterprise level system deployments.”As the convergence of physical security and traditional IT applications continues to evolve, security professionals require a new set of tools to help them manage their systems more efficiently,” Gadi Piran, President and CTO of OnSSI. “OnSSI offers an innovative IP solution that provides the functionality, scalability and lower total cost of ownership required to move to a truly integrated IP security operational platform. Our IP video system management solutions are different than traditional video surveillance systems because we approach the application from a true IT perspective, which is evidenced by the open architecture and hardware agnostics of our solution, as well as its extensive software-driven functionality and ease of operation.”

OnSSI’s IP Video Surveillance System Management Solution is a suite of products running on a single platform that allows security professionals to effectively identify incidents, notify and inform the appropriate personnel both on and off site, and efficiently manage actions to be taken. This is accomplished with advanced system performance features and functionality to more effectively monitor, analyze, control and record system cameras with unlimited scalability. OnSSI’s IP Video Surveillance System Management Solution is also built with completely open architecture making it compatible with virtually any hardware or software application for optimal versatility. This provides an ideal gateway for users looking to take advantage of the inherent benefits offered by IP technology using their existing systems, and for new IP based deployments.

“The intelligence built into our IP video surveillance system management solution crosses several operational parameters”, continued Mr. Piran. “While everything is recorded for archival use, we are focused most on what security professionals need to see at any given moment. By utilizing advanced analytics to detect and filter events, OnSSI’s IP Video Surveillance System Management Solution employs ‘push’ technologies similar to those found in diverse IT management and reporting applications. Fewer people are required to monitor live activity as the events that are important and meet established criteria are ‘pushed’ to the video screen. As a result, clients save money and are more effective.”
