Vision-Box® Implements Innovative Video Surveillance System at the Arena Castelão for the FIFA World Cup
São Paulo (PRWEB) July 16, 2013 -- The solution included the installation of over 250 IP surveillance cameras, distributed throughout the arena, operated by the authorities through the Vision-Box Video Management System SentrySpider®, with integration to the Building Management System (BMS) and the Ticketing Access Control to better track supporters. The solution is fully compliant with the official FIFA requirements for World Cup stadiums.
The video surveillance solution will ensure the safety of not only the supporters but also the security of existing equipment. In order to guarantee the safety of all VIPs that will attend the World Cup games, a priority corridor was defined for a better and more efficient monitoring of this particular group.
Additionally, whenever a supporter enters the arena, its ticket will be indexed with a picture taken by the surveillance system deployed by Vision-Box® to ease the identification of people if needed, using Vision-Box facial recognition technology Facelink®.
The control and supervision of the entire system will be carried out through a state of the art graphical interface optimized for operators, supported by a full IP videowall, which will allow the rapid identification of any situation that deserves attention, real-time view of the entire arena and interconnection with other systems in order to expedite the process response, if necessary.
The whole system is integrated with Vision-Box’s vb i-shield, a powerful IT platform which enables the consolidation of all input information from the various sensors scattered across the Arena.
This project fits into the “THINK CROWD” framework develop by Vision-Box®, which puts the supporter at the kernel of the stadium experience and includes solutions covering access control, biometric validation, CCTV and cards/tickets dispensing.
For Leidivino Natal, Business Director Latin America Vision-Box® S.A. this project "represents an opportunity to be part of this great celebration through the implementation of a robust and efficient solution that contributes significantly to the safety and well-being of all supporters".
The success of this partnership will continue with the implementation of a similar solution at Beira-Rio Stadium
