With growing stores across India, they chose Matrix again due to satisfactory results in the past

The eyewear chain relied on Matrix for its video surveillance needs as they were highly satisfied with Matrix Access Control and Matrix Telecom solutions, previously. Earlier, they had installed Matrix IP Cameras, Video Recorders, and Matrix Video Management Software for centralised monitoring.

With expanding stores across India, they chose Matrix again due to satisfactory results in the past. 1500+ store locations pan India were secured with Matrix IP Cameras and NVRs. A typical deployment in the store included installing 4 to 5 Matrix Professional Series Dome IP Cameras inside the store.

Placement of the camera locations

The cameras were strategically placed at the following locations:

• Outside the Store Premises
• Entry/ Exit of the Store
• Product Display Aisle to Monitor Customer Interactions
• Cash Counters
• Inventory In the Store

Matrix SATATYA SAMAS VMS

An 8-channel Matrix NVR with 1 SATA Port was installed within each store to record and store video footage from these IP cameras.

A particular location in South India required a centralised monitoring solution. For this purpose, Matrix SATATYA SAMAS, Enterprise Video Management Software (VMS) was provided. With the help of this solution, various multi-location cameras could be centrally monitored from a single location.
