Case Study: Omni Recycling catches a federal offender with i3 International's digital surveillance hybrid technology

Omni Recycling catches mail thief from over 400 feet away with i3 International

Omni Recycling, a New York-based recycling plant, faced a significant challenge when payment checks sent via mail began disappearing. Their existing analog surveillance system lacked coverage in key areas and provided poor picture quality, making it impossible to identify the thief. They needed to integrate new, higher-quality cameras without replacing their entire legacy system, leading them to work with their security integrator, Alarm-Tech Security, and vendor i3 International to implement a solution using the SRX-Pro Hybrid DVR system.

The solution involved installing five new i3 International megapixel cameras integrated with the SRX-Pro Hybrid system, which allowed them to work alongside the existing analog cameras. This system included intelligent features like motion-triggered recording for a specific area, drastically reducing review time. Within weeks, the high-quality footage captured a clear image of the perpetrator's face and license plate from over 400 feet away. This evidence was handed to federal investigators, leading to the individual's arrest and incarceration.
