  2. Addressing the Security Challenges Facing Casinos • Common casino challenges • Bright lights and lots of noise leading to: • Inadequate color reproduction • Lack of detail in facial features, cards, chips • Unnatural skin tones of gamblers and casino employees • Poor white balance - hard to identify card suits • Fluorescent flicker - annoying to watch and leads to false alarms • Liability Protection • Exchanging money at breakneck speeds • Providing evidence of fake injuries and falls • Intense regulatory scrutiny • Maintaining regulated number of days of recorded video, frame rate and resolution • Producing video evidence to settle disputes over payouts • Temptation is all around

  3. Casino Surveillance Requirements • High-quality video • All lighting solution: low light to high contrast • Reading the denomination of dollar bills • Requires 30fps, color accuracy • Clear color playback, compensation for reflections of light • No wiping or blurring effects • Facial recognition for slip-and-fall practitioners and card counters • High reliability and availability of cameras • Elimination of indoor and outdoor noise • Use of pre-sets • End continual adjustments to camera settings • Extend the camera’s service life

See the Difference:Green Cloth Failure – Poor White Balance CCD Pixim Poor White Balance Accurate White Balance • Many Automatic White Balance (ATW) algorithms work by averaging and normalizing each color channel separately • Large fields of color turn gray by increasing the gain of the opposite color (pink is the opposite of green) • Pixim image processing algorithms limits the channel gains to those resulting from real sources of illumination • Resulting in accurate felt and skin tone colors
