Description[ ]
A mall in Nigeria upgraded their CCTV system to a Hikvision system. It includes people counting and tracking, and what appears to be some form of behavioural recognition. Hikvision have been linked to contracts in the Xinjiang province of China.
The previous system was aging and in need of improvement. That’s why local systems integrator Totalnet Technologies Services Limited was asked to map out the specifications and design an advanced system for the mall. They chose Hikvision’s CCTV security products for a unified solution and to improve the overall quality of the previous one. The cameras installed included several of Hikvision’s advanced models designed for more than just retail security – they come equipped with smart features that offer insights into business and management data to add value to the safety they offer. Hikvision provided 50 smart IP cameras for the security in public places. But that is only the beginning – Hikvision also provided an ANPR solution for the entrances and exits, people counting technology for the main entrance, access control devices, and even more. This solution has helped secure the shopping center, decreasing the theft incidents and increasing the business operation efficiency 1
