Spanish DIY Chain Bricoking Relies On IP Technology From MOBOTIX.pdf

Bricoking, Spain's leading DIY chain with 28 branches on the Iberian peninsula, recently implemented an advanced video security system in collaboration with Chillida Sistemas de Seguridad. The primary objectives were to enhance security across all branches, facilitate remote access to live images and recordings, ensure high-quality imaging, and accommodate growing data storage needs.

Key Requirements:

- Remote access to live images and videos from individual branches.
- Superior image quality.
- Swiveling cameras offering a 360-degree view.
- Centralized data storage and management.
- 15-day storage period for recordings.

Solution:

After evaluating various solutions, Bricoking chose MOBOTIX IP cameras due to their high image quality, swiveling capabilities, and browser-based server access. The system integrates:

- MOBOTIX Q24 and M24 cameras with 360° views and 6mm focal length.
- Network Attached Storage (NAS) for primary (3MP) and backup (MXPG format) video storage.
- Custom software platform developed by Chillida for centralized control, monitoring, and management of all security systems.

Implementation:

The project involved multiple on-site visits, camera selection, configuration, testing, and installation in four Bricoking stores. The system exceeded expectations by offering additional features like sound recordings and playback of spoken messages, along with easy adjustability and versatility.

Benefits:

- Met and exceeded all requirements.
- Provided a complete security solution.
- Offered advanced features beyond basic functionality.
- Ensured reliable, low-maintenance operation.
- Minimized network load and IT infrastructure needs.
