In the retail sector — whether it’s large-scale food retail, pharmacies, or DIY stores — implementing a suspicious gesture detection system does not rely solely on technology. The success of an intelligent solution also depends on the quality of its integration in the field .

This is where integrators come in — true craftsmen when it comes to the performance of video surveillance systems enhanced by AI.


🎯 A strategic approach to maximise detection

A suspicious gesture detection algorithm, even the most advanced, requires high-quality visual data to operate optimally. A skilled integrator knows how to:

  • Assess the store’s sensitive areas (self-service exits, high-value aisles, low-visibility zones, etc.)
  • Position the cameras at the right height and with the optimal angles to capture human behaviour in the best way
  • Adapt the installation to suit the environment’s specific features (furniture, lighting, customer flow, etc.)

Result: fewer blind spots and improved AI capacity to interpret gestures precisely, in real time.


🔍 An installation designed for AI

Unlike standard camera installations intended for recording or deterrence, a set-up focused on intelligent analysis requires a more refined approach . Integrators trained in AI solutions — such as those offered by Oxania — know how to:

  • Configure cameras for optimal image quality compatible with analysis algorithms
  • Ensure seamless connectivity with servers or the cloud for continuous detection
  • Carry out onsite tests to adjust detection settings according to the actual environment

This expertise ensures a rapid, effective and sustainable implementation.


🚀 Valuable collaboration for retailers

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

  • End-to-end support (assessment, installation, maintenance)
  • An installation meeting the technical requirements of AI
  • An accelerated return on investment thanks to effective detection and rapid reduction of losses

By working with partners like Oxania, integrators bring vital human and technical expertise to the success of intelligent surveillance projects.


🤝 Conclusion: People empowering artificial intelligence

While AI is transforming surveillance capabilities in retail, it is the integrators who bring this technology to life in the field . Thanks to their know-how, retailers can fully benefit from advances in detecting suspicious gestures — in an effective, ethical way, tailored to their environment. With the right cameras, the right angles, and the right technology, every gesture counts.
