AI video analysis for real-time detection and alerts for robberies
Intelligent video analytics for the protection of employees in retail.
Why AI video analytics for retail?
Retail stores face the daily challenge of protecting employees, customers, and goods. Armed robberies, aggressive customers, violence, or medical emergencies often arise within just a few seconds. Especially in stressful situations, employees may be unable to press an alarm button or call for help. AI video analytics with Vaidio for real-time detection and alerting during robberies expands existing cameras into an intelligent early warning system for greater security.
- Security-relevant events are detected immediately
- Customers and employees are better protected
- Security and operations management are relieved of workload
- GDPR-compliant video analytics with integration into existing systems
What situations does AI video analytics recognize in retail?
Robberies often develop within just a few seconds and are not always immediately recognizable as such. AI video analytics helps your security system automatically detect critical situations and assess them early.
Weapon detection
Violence Detection
Mask detection
Fall detection
How does it work?
The AI video analytics processes video data in real time and reliably detects security-relevant events exactly at the moment they occur. It analyzes people, objects, and behavior in context, automatically prioritizes incidents, and enables fast, targeted responses.
Cameras provide the images
Your existing surveillance cameras capture the sales floor, the checkout area, and other security-relevant areas as usual. In most cases, no new cameras are required.
24/7 real-time analysis
The AI continuously analyzes every video stream for security-relevant events such as weapons, violence, disguises, or unconscious people. If it detects a potential danger, it automatically triggers an alert.
Immediate alerting and response
The alarm is immediately transmitted to security personnel or
a dispatch center. Through the live image, the situation can be checked immediately and, depending on the event, the police, security forces, or the emergency medical services
can be informed.
The most important AI video analyses for more security
AI-generated video events to demonstrate the software
Weapon detection
The weapon detection by Vaidio detects visible stabbing and firearms directly in the camera image.
- Firearms
- Handguns
- Rifles
- Long guns
- Knives
- Stab weapons

Violence detection
AI-based violence detection helps to identify physical altercations and aggressive movement patterns at an early stage.
- Physical altercations
- Hitting and kicking
- Aggressive movement patterns
AI-generated video events for demonstrating the software
Mask detection
The platform detects whether a face is visible or obscured by a mask, a balaclava, or other clothing.

Fall and prone-position detection
The AI detects people who remain on the ground, for example after a medical emergency, an act of violence, or because they were forced to during a robbery. Especially with solo shifts, this can trigger an alarm automatically and help organize assistance quickly, even if the affected person can no longer respond themselves.
- Automatically detects falls
- Detects when someone does not get back up after a fall
How does AI video analytics support your security team?
In retail, camera footage, alarms, and security-relevant incidents must often be assessed quickly, across multiple locations at once. AI video analytics automatically detects critical situations, prioritizes events, and provides the relevant video context immediately. This enables your security team to respond faster, reduce false alarms, and centrally track incidents.

How does AI video analytics protect the privacy of employees and customers?
AI video analytics not only relieves security teams, but also protects privacy. Instead of having video footage continuously monitored by employees or security services, the AI automatically analyzes the camera images in the background. Depending on the use case, only security-relevant events are analyzed.
- No continuous live monitoring by security teams
- No face recognition, no biometric identification required
- Event-related processing and storage
- Face blurring and restricted access rights
Can Vaidio be integrated into existing infrastructures?
Vaidio is not operated as a separate system alongside existing security technology, but is specifically integrated into existing structures. Existing components remain in place and are expanded with AI-based analysis and automated evaluation. This means there is no additional effort caused by system changes, but rather an extension of the existing infrastructure with intelligent functions.
Existing cameras
Vaidio uses existing IP cameras and processes their video streams in real time. Existing camera installations remain in place and are specifically enhanced with AI-based analysis.
Video Management Systems (VMS)
Integration into existing VMS enables detected events to be displayed directly in the familiar system. Operation and existing processes remain unchanged, while analysis is expanded in the background.
Security services and control centers
Detected events can be automatically forwarded to existing security services or control rooms. Alerts integrate into existing processes and are handled there as usual.
Third-party software and systems
Vaidio can be connected to additional systems, for example access control systems, alarm management platforms as well as HR, ERP, or industry-specific software solutions. Integration is done via standardized interfaces such as REST APIs. Detected events can be passed directly into existing systems and processed further there. This makes information from video analytics part of existing processes without additional manual steps.
Building technology and automation
Vaidio can be integrated into existing building technology and automation systems. Detected events can be used to trigger automated processes, for example in access control, lighting, or other technical systems.
What forms of deployment do we offer for branch operations?
Build your solution individually and combine security and operational analyses according to your needs. New analyses can be added at any time without replacing existing camera infrastructure.
