IDIS video technology has been chosen by Finnish hypermarket giant Prima to streamline its existing surveillance system - a complex infrastructure that mixes-and-matches more that 150 third-party devices. The old system had become difficult to maintain and operate, with significant latency issues impacting loss prevention operations across four malls. Integrator Safe IT recommended IDIS Solution Suite VMS to enable simple integration, and to allow existing equipment to be retained with easy centralized management and control of all devices and sites. An advanced video wall will deliver comprehensive coverage with no visible latency and empower operators to tackle shrink in real-time. And as is typical of IDIS projects in the retail sector, this is expected to deliver a rapid return on investment, boosted by the IDIS low total cost of ownership promise.

Southern Health NHS Trust is continuing to modernize its facilities as it improves care outcomes for patients with complex and sometimes challenging mental health needs. The latest development phase involves a major upgrade of CCTV at the trust’s Elmleigh hospital, where intelligent use of video surveillance is key to safeguarding patients and staff. Working in a sensitive, live environment, our systems integration partner, Galeco, installed over 60 network cameras including IDIS 12MP Super Fisheyes, 5MP bullets, and 2MP domes. In just six weeks these were seamlessly connected to switches and IDIS 32-channel NVRs to create a federated architecture that ensures full redundancy. Thanks to rapid DirectIP installation, and the totally cost free IDIS Center VMS , the hospital is now benefiting from improved safety and security and low ongoing lifecycle costs.
