Visimetrics has teamed up with leading EPoS provider
NISYST to produce a combined electronic point of sale and digital
video recording system for retail surveillance.
The new PoSDVR system enables stores to combine the capture,
storage and access of digitally recorded CCTV images with EPoS data
in the same physical unit, meaning the linking of fraudulent
transactions and the recorded video evidence is easier.
Based on the Epson IR700 Touch Screen EPoS system, the closely
integrated software product of NISYST's NPoS with Visimetrics OCTAR
application provides staff with instant access to recorded CCTV
images, driven by the search of specific EPoS transactions.
The system can record the filming of up to eight standard CCTV
cameras. Integrating the EPoS and CCTV recording applications
together in this way simplifies installation, operation and future
maintenance, said the two partners.
PoSDVR provides simultaneous access to live or recorded images
locally, over the local network to standard PC’s in store, or
across wider networks such as a VPN to central locations.
PoSDVR can export images to CD or DVD when they are required by
the police for evidential purposes, and the inbuilt audit system
ensures any exported footage complies fully with the HOSDB "Digital
Images as Evidence" guidelines.
