Problem

  1. Retail shrinkage costs businesses several billions annually, with shoplifting accounting for 30-40% of losses.
  2. Traditional security methods are reactive and labour-intensive, requiring constant human monitoring.
  3. Limited ability to detect subtle suspicious behaviours or patterns across multiple store locations.
  4. High false alarm rates with conventional systems lead to alert fatigue.
  5. Difficulty in collecting and analysing theft-related data for preventive measures.

  • Multi-camera coordination with 360-degree coverage.
  • Real-time behaviour analysis and pattern recognition.
  • Integration with existing security infrastructure.
