With casinos, hotels, restaurants, and stores, gaming operations are now popular entertainment centers that attract large crowds and often have substantial amounts of cash on-site.  Security is not only a major concern but has also become very complex at these destinations.  With 1,000s of video devices, motion detectors, fire alarms, ticket redemption, cash machines and slot machine sensors, obtaining a complete view of a situation, coordinating personnel and reacting in real-time is extremely difficult. 

Challenges 

• Managing thousands of legacy video devices associated with numerous video recorders  and only a handful of people available for monitoring the surveillance video
• Monitoring, interpreting, and acting on data in real time from casino comp and player systems, slot machines, ATMs, and point of sale machines
• Keeping up to date with frequent floor plan changes
• Consolidating command centers and their associated data across properties
