The casino chain, owned by A&S Leisure, has deployed a Fastar CCTV recording solution at its branches in Sheffield, Leeds, Hull and Bradford.
Operational director of A&S Leisure Group, Mark Allen said: “Visimetrics are a proven quantity for surveillance systems within the casino industry. With clear experience and reference projects in place, they came highly recommended by our systems integrator Zepha Security and industry colleagues alike.
“We needed a very high quality recording system with clear video and audio output that could be used easily by our staff on site while also providing remote access to our sites from head office. We were also keen to ensure we had a fully flexible solution that can be easily extended moving forward.
“While I’m happy to say the solution in practice has proved excellent the experience of working with Visimetrics in designing and delivering our surveillance system has been invaluable. We are benefiting further from this by collectively looking at ways of using the recording systems to bring more information together. A current example is the integration of till information – linking our EPOS data with the video recordings using the data recording feature within Fastar.”
Visimetrics business development director, Gary James, said:” We’re delighted that A&S Leisure has chosen our solution for their casinos. Our recorders are used daily to gather evidence of cheat moves, theft, barred persons, self-excluders etc.
“We’ve focused heavily on casino usage in the development of our management software, Control SMS. Various tools and features have been incorporated for the management, review and export of footage by surveillance, security and compliance departments.”
“By far the core of Fastar’s daily usage is in resolving gaming disputes quickly. While the need for high quality video is obvious it’s the audio content and quality that becomes essential in these circumstances and is often the deciding factor in closing disputes satisfactorily.
The EPOS project is under development.
