In the retail sector — whether it’s large supermarkets, pharmacies, or hardware stores — implementing a suspicious gesture detection system isn’t only about technology. The success of a smart solution also relies on how well it is integrated on site .

That’s where integrators come in: they are the real driving force behind the performance of video surveillance systems enhanced by AI.


🎯 A Strategic Approach to Maximise Detection

A suspicious gesture detection algorithm, even the most advanced, needs quality visual data to function at its best. A skilled integrator knows how to:

  • Assess sensitive areas of the store (self-checkout, high-value aisles, low-visibility zones, etc.)
  • Position the cameras at the right height and with the proper angles to capture human behaviour in the best light
  • Adapt the installation to suit the specific environment (furniture, lighting, customer flow, etc.)

Result: fewer blind spots and a greater ability for the AI to accurately interpret gestures in real time.


🔍 An Installation Designed for AI

Unlike standard camera setups that are just for recording or deterrence, installing for smart analysis calls for a more considered approach . Integrators trained in AI solutions — like those provided by Oxania — know how to:

  • Set up cameras for optimal image quality that's compatible with analysis algorithms
  • Ensure smooth connectivity with servers or the cloud for ongoing detection
  • Conduct on-site testing to adjust detection parameters according to real-world environments

This expertise ensures rapid, effective, and lasting implementation.


🚀 A Valuable Partnership for Retailers

Retailers who work with integrators specialising in enhanced security technologies benefit from:

  • End-to-end support (design, installation, maintenance)
  • An installation that meets all AI-specific technical requirements
  • An accelerated return on investment thanks to efficient detection and rapid loss reduction

By partnering with companies like Oxania, integrators add a vital human and technical dimension to the success of smart surveillance projects.


🤝 Conclusion: Putting People at the Heart of Artificial Intelligence

While AI is transforming the possibilities for surveillance in retail, it’s the integrators who bring this technology to life in the field . With their expertise, they enable retailers to fully leverage advances in suspicious gesture detection — efficiently, ethically, and suited to their environment. With the right cameras, the right angles and the right technology, every gesture matters.
