Video Management System (VMS)
Systems
A software platform that manages the capture, storage, retrieval, and viewing of video from surveillance cameras across a property. The VMS provides the user interface through which surveillance operators monitor live feeds, control PTZ cameras, search recorded footage, export video evidence, and configure recording parameters. Enterprise-grade VMS platforms used in casinos support integration with facial recognition, analytics, access control, and alarm management systems.
In practice
Major VMS providers serving the casino industry include Genetec, Milestone, Avigilon, and Hanwha Wisenet; Macau and Singapore operators require VMS systems with redundant recording and export capabilities.
