Retail
Loss prevention and fair incident review — built on the record. The PATRUL ecosystem for retail: capturing the work of security and registers, with evidence for insurers and police in a single secure chain-wide archive.
Challenges
Where a retail chain loses money and time without reliable recording.
Theft and disputes with customers are settled by footage from the floor and the register, not by staff testimony.
Local recorders without a single archive make chain-wide incident review harder.
Losses with no evidence for police or insurers.
Conflicts with customers without an objective record.
Each store a separate recorder, with no single archive.
Finding the footage for an incident takes hours.
No way to tell who viewed or copied the video.
Hard to capture violations on the part of staff.
Proposed solution
Security and register cameras + a single chain-wide archive with search and access control.
Recordings from every location in one repository with search.
Filter by location, register and time — an incident in minutes.
Every view and export — in the log.
Export footage with metadata for police and insurers.
Recommended equipment
The store kit. Scaled to the number of stores.
DVR-X8
A multi-channel recorder: up to 8 cameras per site or vehicle.
BC-2
A compact chest-worn camera for daily shifts: Full HD, GPS, lightweight body.
DOCK-24
A 24-slot docking station for a large unit.
Software platform
Configured for a retail chain — roles, locations, retention.
The platform brings every store into a single archive. Access is built around locations and roles; retention periods follow the chain's policy and insurers' requirements.
Expected outcome
Measurable changes after rollout.
Available evidence speeds up recovery and deters theft.
Search by location, register and time instead of hours.
Every store in one archive with access rights.
Export for police and insurers in a single package.
Use cases
Scenarios where the record recovers money and closes disputes.
The security team finds the episode by time and register. A package with the video is handed to police and the insurer.
A conflict at the register. The manager opens the recording — the claim is dropped on the basis of the video.
The auditor cross-checks register and floor recordings. Staff misconduct is documented.
