Security
Detect visible weapons, physical conflicts, falls and defined threats.
With AI video analytics, you can automatically evaluate security-relevant events, pedestrian flows, queues and visible operating states in your stores. Synaedge connects your existing cameras with continuous analysis, recurring visual controls and your defined response processes.
Direct answer
With visual AI, you automatically evaluate the images of your existing cameras for security, store operation and area control. You can detect clearly defined objects, movements, numbers of people and visible events and provide the results for your defined operational processes.
SynaHUB can also automate recurring visual inspections. Instead of checking entrances, warehouse doors, escape routes or access routes manually, a camera captures and documents the visible condition. If it detects a deviation, you receive a targeted alert.
You evaluate visible processes with the systems. The technology does not generally assess the intention of a person and classifies no one as a thief alone due to a move.
Detect visible weapons, physical conflicts, falls and defined threats.
Monitor checkout areas, access, sales areas and visible operational conditions.
Enhance frequency, utilization, directions of motion and queues anonymously.
Automate recurring visual inspections and document deviations.
Central applications in retail
With four central applications, you can connect your existing cameras with specific safety, operating and analysis processes. Which applications make sense for you depend on your type of store, your area and your organisational goal.
Detect visible weapons, physical threats, masking or people on the ground and pass relevant events to your defined alarm and verification processes.
Evaluate visitor frequency, dwell times, queues, directions of movement and area usage anonymously.
Detect unauthorised intrusion, defined removal of certain objects and relevant events outside your opening hours.
Connect occupancy, licence plates, entrances and rides, parking time, permissions and defined parking rules digitally.
SynaHUB · visual inspection tasks
Today, you check many store states at fixed times, before opening, after closing in or manually during a shift. With SynaHUB, you can automate such recurring visual inspections and receive documented results.
Job-based visual AI
You determine when a camera is created by creating a current image and which question should be answered. A Vision Language Model evaluates the visible state based on your specifications. The documented result will then hand you over to your intended process.
Supplementary application areas
Depending on the location, you can provide occupational safety, fire protection, access control and forensics to your central retail applications.
Monitor falls, blocked paths and visible security conditions in your work areas
Recognise visible smoke, open flames and relevant changes in condition early
Connect personnel access rights, storage areas and sensitive zones to your authorisations and opening hours
Find people, vehicles, objects and events in large video archives faster
From camera view to security process
A detection or visual inspection will only support you in operation when the result arrives with the correct context in your intended system.
01
Have your existing IP cameras, access cameras and other suitable image sources technically checked.
02
Have security-relevant areas continuously analyse or specifically control individual images.
03
Supplement zone, time, permission, building, object and other operating information.
04
Pass results to your VMS, PSIM, your access control, your security control, your building management or your own applications.
Application examples
Your requirements at a gas station are clearly different from those of a jeweller or supermarket. Adapt analyses, check orders and reaction pathways to your specific risk profile and your respective store operation.
Platforms and deployment
Depending on your task, you will receive your own Synaedge platform, established enterprise technology or a combined architecture.
Operational video analytics
SynaEYE continuously analyses existing cameras in real time and combines detection, event logic, alerts, tracking and forensics in a European edge AI platform.
The right choice if you:
want to monitor security, safety or operational processes continuously with your cameras and process detected events immediately.
Job-based visual AI
SynaHUB turns a visual question into an automated AI job. A camera, API or schedule supplies the image, a VLM evaluates the situation and returns a structured result.
The right choice if you:
want to inspect conditions, references, quality or individual visual questions without developing a separate analytics module for every task.
Enterprise platform
Vaidio is an established enterprise platform with an extensive catalogue of standardised video analytics, powerful forensic search and a broad integration ecosystem.
The right choice if you:
need a large, standardised enterprise environment with extensive analytics, multi-site operation and established VMS integrations.
You operate the processing according to your security, latency and privacy requirements on-premises, on edge systems, hybrid, or in a private cloud environment.
Responsibility and limits
With visual AI, you can only evaluate states and events that are visible in appropriate quality. Consider therefore that camera position, lighting, coverings, crowd density and environmental conditions significantly determine which analysis is reliably possible for you.
For locations in the EU form the GDPR, especially Art. 5, 6, 25 and 35 and the EDSA video surveillance guidelines the basis of the privacy audit. In addition, consider the law of the respective Member State, in particular employee data protection and co-determination. The duties from the EU AI Act check for the concrete use of AI.

Frequently Asked Questions
In many cases yes. Check resolution, perspective, frame rate, lighting, network access and your specific analysis task. We test your existing cameras with real scenes before we make a reliable statement.
We cannot promise you general direct shoplifting detection. The intention of a person cannot be reliably derived from a camera view. However, you can detect clearly defined visible events, such as the removal of a particular object from a monitored zone, unauthorised intrusion, visible weapons or physical violence.
Yes. You can evaluate personal counting, directions of motion, queues and area usage without identifying individuals.
No. For the standard applications described, you do not need facial recognition. If you want to use identifying procedures in publicly accessible sales areas, you must check their legal admissibility separately.
With SynaEYE or Vaidio, you can continuously detect events during the running camera stream. With SynaHUB, you can specifically evaluate individual images at set times or after defined events.
Depending on the scenario, we hand over the results to your store managers, your security staff, your existing control centre, your VMS or your own applications. For critical safety events, you define the testing and escalation path in advance.
Plan the solution for a defined purpose and in line with data minimisation. Define roles, access rights, retention periods, logging and masking for the location and applicable requirements.
Yes. Depending on your number of cameras, network structure, latency and privacy requirements, you operate processing on edge systems, on-premises, in a cloud, or as a hybrid architecture, and manage your sites together.
First, define a specific event or visual inspection, suitable camera scenes and the desired reaction path. We then validate the analysis with your real recordings and integrate it into your store operation in a controlled manner.
From the visible event to validated store operation
Together, we test your camera scenes, image quality, platform role, necessary integrations and measurable success criteria based on your real store processes.
