Case Study: Hoodlinks enhances remote site security with Videoloft

How Hoodlinks, with the help of Videoloft, developed a bespoke security solution to protect a remote mine

Hoodlinks, a South African provider of CCTV and wireless security solutions, was contacted by a remote mine site to enhance perimeter security with surveillance and intrusion detection. The key challenge was providing a reliable system in an off-grid location with no internet or power, while also eliminating the need for risky on-site video storage. Hoodlinks partnered with Videoloft to develop a cloud-based solution.

Videoloft's service provided a low-bandwidth recording mode and dynamic bitrate adjustment to work over the site's 3G connection, ensuring all video was saved to the cloud and eliminating local storage. The solution resulted in a highly satisfied end-client. Furthermore, Hoodlinks utilized Videoloft's white-label platform to offer a fully branded app to their customers, which helped them build strong brand recognition within their local industry.
