HOUSTON & RESTON, Va. -- DIGIOP Technologies, a global leader in surveillance technology and video-centric business intelligence solutions, and ObjectVideo[R], the leader in intelligent video, announced today that they have entered into an OEM partnership agreement. As an OEM partner, DIGIOP has embedded the ObjectVideo capabilities of analytics software within its Superior Management of Analytics and Risk through Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) platform for the retail industry.

Using best-in-class providers such as ObjectVideo, Dell, Intel and Microsoft, the DIGIOP S.M.A.R.T. Retail platform turns surveillance information into accessible intelligence and significant action. S.M.A.R.T. Retail allows the retailer to maximize the ROI on surveillance technology investments by offering:

* Industry-leading enterprise-wide surveillance capabilities;

* A powerful intelligent retail data mining engine that is used to extract relevant video, audio, and POS data for loss prevention, marketing studies and training;

* Highly reliable people counting capabilities that can be used to count store traffic in real time, calculate conversion rates, track and calculate the effectiveness of product displays and provide digital signage effectiveness;

* Monitor authorized door access and detect potentially suspicious events; and

* Monitor in-store customer migration patterns and checkout queues to optimize staffing, merchandising and inventory control and operations.

DIGIOP S.M.A.R.T. Retail is an end-to-end solution that addresses a retailer's greatest pain points: securing the store and providing a safer environment for customers and employees, reducing risk of fraudulent claims, reducing shrink with video integrated loss prevention, and giving operations and marketing real-time customer intelligence.

Never before has such a powerful suite of solutions been packaged together in such an easy-to-use, cost effective capability, all backed by a 3-year next business day onsite warranty supported by Dell.

We look forward to changing the rules of performance for the global retail industry with our new S.M.A.R.T. Retail platform designed by DIGIOP, built by DELL and inspired by ObjectVideo," said Mark Rome, Chief Executive Officer for DIGIOP.

DIGIOP's S.M.A.R.T. Retail solution brings the dream of the "store of tomorrow" to the retailer today.
