Surveillance firm Synectics, based in Sheffield, UK, has been awarded two major new casino projects in North America. Working with local integration partner Zuvid Surveillance Systems, Synectics will provide surveillance management systems based on its market-leading Synergy software platform for Fallsview Casino Resort, which overlooks Horseshoe Falls in Canada, and its sister property, Casino Niagara. Delivery will commence before the end of this year, with a five-year support contract agreed, following completion in early 2022. Mike Stanciu, Director of Surveillance at Niagara Casinos, said: “We selected Synergy due to the impressive ability to bring a number of fragmented processes and systems into a centralised, easy to use Command & Control space. Synergy’s ability to deliver an efficient product will be beneficial to the overall success of our department and our properties. Their intuitive front end makes it easy for operators to find the cameras they are looking for, review incidents and provide appropriate evidence when required.”
Paul Webb, Chief Executive of Synectics, added: “These are some of the first new major projects awarded in the sector since the start of the pandemic and, as footfall and revenues in North American casinos have recovered strongly in recent months, should indicate a relatively straightforward recovery in the gaming surveillance market in North America going forward.”
