NUUO helps protect Brown Palace Hotel in Colorado.
09 July 2008
With a high degree of internal security, the Brown Palace Hotel seated in Denver, Colorado, is considered one of the Grandest Hotels in the US.
40 channels of analog cameras are installed around the lobby, restaurants, check-in areas, and ballrooms. All cameras are managed by a Visao DVR with NUUO H.264 DVR cards & software, featuring NUUO’s I-guard video analysis.
In the main lobby and entrance, foreign and missing object detection react at once with on screen and audio alarms, especially during night hours. Once an “I-guard event” is detected, it is recorded on all selected cameras in the software and played through the graphical user interface (GUI). Also, with the motion detection feature, users can select a specific area to detect motion and the software will react to that motion in any one of 8 user defined ways.
The Brown Palace anticipates adding 4 external IP PTZ cameras located at the four mains entrances, for additional security during the Democratic National Convention (DNC). DNC VIP guests will stay at the Brown Palace Hotel for the duration of the Convention. The Hotel plans to expand the use of Visao DVRs’ using NUUO cards & Software in the future, adding at least one more DVR this year.
“Before there were only 16 cameras with low quality video in CIF resolution, unreliable operation really straightened our surveillance job, in a grand hotel our mission is to assist to avert any possible fraud or offense before it really occurs , and gladly we did it.” said Gene Frailey, the Chief Technical Officer of VISãO, Inc.
