The fundamental function of the Point of Sale integration system is to overlay live real time transaction data over a video channel. All transaction data is then stored on the system for powerful searching and reporting (e.g. Product Sales Search, Void Transaction Search).

Loss prevention in the retail businesses is concerned with inventory shrinkage and the shortage of currency. Losses related to POS transactions can be a main cause of the shrinkage for the most part. An effective POS-DVR surveillance solution can help employers deal with these situations. GeoVision Point of Sale Integration links the GeoVision Surveillance System to any Electronic Point of Sale System.

The GeoVision POS-DVR surveillance system provides visual contextual awareness to reduce shrinkage and protect asset against business losses. While working in conjunction use with GV-Data Capture, the GV-Series surveillance system can turn into a POS-DVR surveillance system, which helps you with tools to remotely monitor cashier area, associate POS transaction data with videos, record videos for retroactive analysis, and even to output alarms for emergent events.
