Synectics has launched Scene Check, an automated camera verification solution that enables casinos to verify thousands of surveillance cameras in minutes rather than hours. The global launch follows a successful deployment at a major integrated casino resort, where, according to the company, the technology has already demonstrated clear operational value.

By automating a process that is highly manual in many surveillance operations, Scene Check helps casino operators reduce operational risk, strengthen regulatory compliance, and restore gaming operations faster following outages, maintenance, or infrastructure changes.

Developed specifically for large-scale casino environments, Scene Check addresses one of the most time-consuming surveillance tasks, confirming that every camera is working correctly, positioned accurately, and delivering the required field of view across gaming floors, count rooms, cash-handling areas, and other critical locations.

For casinos operating thousands of cameras across gaming floors, count rooms, cash-handling areas and restricted-access locations, verifying camera performance is a critical but resource-intensive task. These inspections can take hours to complete and may still fail to identify issues.

Scene Check automates this process, enabling surveillance teams to check thousands of cameras in minutes by verifying camera alignment, field of view, image quality, and operational status. The solution automatically detects camera failures, misalignment, obstructions, tampering, blur, and focus degradation, generating alerts and reports that direct surveillance teams to cameras that require attention.

Chief Strategy Officer at Synectics, David Aindow said: "Surveillance teams have little choice but to spend hours manually checking cameras to identify issues. Scene Check changes that by automatically identifying those that need attention, allowing teams to focus on resolving problems instead of searching for them.”

Supporting regulatory compliance

Scene Check creates a fully auditable record of camera verification activities, helping casinos demonstrate that surveillance coverage is actively monitored, issues are identified, and corrective actions are taken.

This provides valuable evidence for compliance reviews, whether conducted internally or required by gaming regulators, while giving operators greater confidence that surveillance coverage of critical areas remains continuous.

The technology is also suited to all environments where surveillance coverage is directly linked to operational continuity, enabling teams to quickly determine whether cameras remain compliant and ready for service following maintenance activities, outages or infrastructure changes.

Aindow concluded: "As surveillance systems continue to grow in size and complexity, manually verifying camera performance is becoming increasingly impractical. Scene Check enables organisations to continuously validate camera readiness, helping them maintain surveillance coverage, strengthen compliance and minimise operational disruption."
