Taiwan largest department store selects Avermedia

Taipei, Taiwan

Shin Kong Mitsukoshi, founded in 1989, is the largest department chain store in Taiwan that was established through a joint venture between two enterprises in Taiwan and Japan. With thousands of square feet in Taipei and all over the country, the security mission of Shin Kong Mitsukoshi is to provide a safe and family-oriented shopping environment to its employees and customers.
To effectively and efficiently execute its mission, Shin Kong Mitsukoshi selected Avermedia's SEB5116H DVRs to connect 256 cameras throughout the shopping center. SEB5116H provides H.264 compression that not only saves storage space and equipment costs, but also incorporates an intelligent software search of recorded surveillance data through a simple to use UI operation used by security personnel in case of emergency. For example, the intelligent data search function can be used to search events by date, hour, minute, and second; In addition the emergency SOP feature illustrates the measures which should be taken by security guards following an event; PTZ camera points zoom-in automatically to pinpoint the incident.

With so many camera feeds coming from the 14 storey building, the security manager wishes to react to incidents quickly and effectively. Previously, Shin Kong Mitsukoshi connected all the DVRs to the central matrix that exported surveillance images to multiple monitors. The new Averdigi CM3000 enables operators to view surveillance feeds from one of the four monitors on a central station. A further three screens are now used to view E-map which displays and indicates uploaded floor plans-up to 64, and locations of cameras, alarm centers, and an instant review and playback of suspicious activities.

Avermedia has offered free DVR integration to the central management system (CMS) in this project and is ready to help future surveillance expansion to all Shin Kong Mitsukoshi department stores throughout the country. Shin Kong Mitsukoshi has been planning to use Avermedia CMS and DVRs to build a simple, but effective central monitoring station from a single location ever since the installation. Combining with the intelligent software of Avermedia CMS, Shin Kong Mitsukoshi would easily maintain the highest security level in line with its mission as the leading fashion store brand in Taiwan.
