The German manufacturer of video, Dallmeier is sponsor of the European Dealer Championship 2022. The trade show for casinos runs from Monday to Wednesday, May 16 to 18, at the Casino de Monte-Carlo, Monaco). Dallmeier says that its cameras and recording systems as well as the “Casino Operating System” HEMISPHERE SeMSy, lets casino operators canintegrate, process and present data from different systems, for their security and business processes.
The European Dealer Championship offers the best croupiers in Europe the opportunity to prove their skills. At the same time, the event serves as a platform for the industry to meet, network and exchange information on current technologies.
With the open HEMISPHERE SeMSy software, casino operators can manage data from systems via a central hub. These include point-of-sale, slot machines, card shoes, RFID readers, access control or fire alarms as well as data from the Dallmeier CAT table game analysis systems. Widgets can be used to create personalised user interfaces. Then for example floor managers or security officers only ever see exactly the information they need for their task.
The integration and linking of video data allows events or alarms to be tracked, researched and verified. In combination with the 360 degree “Panomera W8” cameras, finding a “person of interest” in a standard scenario on the gaming floor can be done in less than three minutes instead of over 20 minutes with traditional PTZ in comparable scenarios, the company says. The “W8” works like a combination of overview and PTZ camera and enables tracking of the wanted person. Once the incident is under control, casino staff can centrally collect, store and share videos, notes, reports and other information about a specific incident via “digital incident files”.
Dallmeier as an exhibitor can provide information on how casinos can meet the requirements of the regulatory authorities for video security systems with fewer cameras. For example, just a few “Panomera® W8” cameras are sufficient to ensure the camera redundancies required on the gaming floor if, for example, one of two over-the-table cameras fails, according to the company.
Ep Smit, at Dallmeier says: “In contrast to classic PTZ cameras, the Dallmeier Panomera W cameras enable an overview of the largest contexts and at the same time allow one or more “virtual PTZs” to be opened at the click of a mouse. This means that far fewer camera systems are needed, with a corresponding positive effect on the total cost of ownership. Unlike PTZ cameras, casino operators can also use our W8 for numerous analytics applications, for example to better utilise the gaming floor, or to provide a better customer experience and customer loyalty.”
