Retail Challenges for Video SurveillanceUnrealized Potential – Limited Accessibility and Availability

Primary Focus on ShrinkageThieves stole over $5.8 billion from 24 surveyed retailers in 2005

Shrinkage accounts for 2–3% of revenues; only 2–3% of this stolen merchandise is recovered today

Loss Prevention Efficacy and Productivity Human error - missing ~80% events after 20 minutes (source US army study)

Faster response to real-time events

Limited Accessibility to video outside of security operations; on the floor and on a remote basis

Why is Video Surveillance is only used for Loss Prevention?
