Internet Protocol or IP video surveillance can hit the spot for some restaurants.For example, a group of Seattle-based restaurant owners needed advanced remote monitoring systems for their restaurants and bars. Although a few of the facilities already had analog cameras, the owners wanted a way to access the video remotely, as well as record and manage the images. Enter Internet Camera Solutions, Seattle, an IP surveillance solution provider that develops digital surveillance systems that allow clients to maximize profits, control costs and deter theft through the ability to monitor businesses from anywhere in the world. The company turned to Axis Communications, Chelmsford, Mass., for network cameras and video servers.
Before Internet Camera Solutions began installing Axis network video products, restaurant clients were unable to efficiently monitor their stores, and with multiple locations, it was extremely difficult and tiring to travel between the various locations to monitor operations. In addition, if stock or money was missing, it was nearly impossible to determine who was responsible.
