The situation
Shrinkage is a margin problem hiding in plain sight
TRASSIR video analytics helps retailers fight losses from shoplifting and fraud, which can cost up to 1.42% of total income, while generating operational and marketing insight from the same cameras.
A typical deployment: cash desk cameras with ActivePOS, an entrance camera for watchlists, sales floor and stockroom coverage, one recorder per store, federated at HQ so loss prevention reviews flagged events across every branch.
What the platform delivers
From the checkout to the buyer flow
Loss prevention
Monitors cashier transactions and flags suspicious activity at the checkout in real time.
Queue management
Counts people in line and alerts a manager to open another register.
Customer behavior analytics
Insight for store layout, product placement and promotion planning.
Traffic pattern analysis
React to peaks in buyer flow with the same cameras that guard the store.
TRASSIR's recommended modules for retail: ActivePOS, ActiveStock, Sabotage Detector, ActiveSearch+, Queue Detector, Heat Maps, Shelf Detector, Sound Detector
Reference deployment
Walk the store: where the cameras go, what watches the footage
At the tills
A compact sphere camera over each cash lane, framed on the scanner, drawer and hands. ActivePOS pairs every receipt line with the footage and runs each transaction through its violation checklist.
At the entrance
A dome at face height sees every person walking in. Face Recognition compares each face against the watchlist, from any angle including profiles, and alerts the floor before a repeat offender reaches the aisles.
On the sales floor
A 5 MP fisheye covers 360 degrees of open floor for Heat Maps and buyer flow analysis, while Queue Detector counts the line from the till cameras.
Stockroom and receiving
A DualLight bullet with illumination to 40 m covers the back door and yard. Neuro Detector arms the zone after closing and alarms on a person, not a stray cat.
Recording in the store
Each branch records locally on a MiniNVR AnyIP: 9 or 16 cameras at up to 8 MP on TRASSIR OS, with two HDD bays sized to your retention policy.
Review at head office
Branch recorders federate to HQ, where loss prevention reviews flagged incidents from every store in one console, on desktop or mobile.
Match the problem to the module
| The problem you have | The module that answers it | How it answers |
|---|---|---|
| Items pass the scanner without being scanned | ActivePOS | Runs every transaction through a violation checklist and hands the operator an incident with a short video clip. |
| Refunds and voids that never add up | ActivePOS reports | Flexible filters and interactive reports sort POS events by product, operation or cashier. |
| A known offender keeps coming back | Face Recognition | Watchlist matching at the entrance, with degree of match scoring and spoofing defense. |
| Queues push shoppers out the door | Queue Detector | Counts people in line and alerts a manager to open another register. |
| You cannot see what the layout does | Heat Maps | Shows where shoppers stop, slow and pass, from the same cameras that guard the store. |
| A camera gets covered or nudged aside | Sabotage Detector | Flags tampering the moment it happens, so a blind spot never lasts for weeks. |

Platform proof
What the platform has done for retailers
Shoplifting and fraud can cost a retailer up to 1.42% of total income. At SPAR supermarkets, TRASSIR cut POS losses and controlled self service weighing. The published results:
30%
decrease in shortage quantity
40%
decrease in losses resulting from shoplifting
60%
decrease in shoplifting theft
Turkey's largest retailer reports the same with UltraStation, ActivePOS and TRASSIR IP cameras: faster response to violations, and falling losses.
Results published by TRASSIR from deployments worldwide (15,000+ clients in 42 countries), shown as proof of the technology, not as Chasing Sun projects.
Read the case studiesQuestions retailers ask
Before you commit a single branch
Does ActivePOS work with our POS system?
It supports the most popular POS systems, and rules are built with a constructor rather than custom code. We confirm your exact till software during the site survey, before quoting.
Can head office watch every branch from one place?
Yes. ActivePOS handles multiple outlets in one interface, and the VMS federates branch recorders under one console with unlimited users, roles, rights and a full action audit.
What happens when a branch loses its network link?
Nothing stops. Recording is local to the store, and cameras carry MicroSD edge storage up to 512 GB as a further layer. Head office review resumes when the link returns.
Do we have to replace the cameras we already own?
Rarely. TRASSIR VMS supports 99% of cameras via native, RTSP and ONVIF, so a chain can migrate branch by branch.
How long can we keep footage?
As long as your policy requires. Each store recorder takes two HDD bays, and the storage math comes with the quote.
What support do we get after go live?
Operator training on your own cameras, aftersales support backed by an SLA and a named engineer, and change quotations usually within 48 hours.
