Attention on 'Unmanned Store Security Solutions' Amid COVID Re-spread

S1 Installs Advanced Dedicated Security Solutions in Convenience Stores and Unmanned PC Rooms

Unmanned PC Room Security Solution

Unmanned store security solutions are emerging as the leading technology in the security market in the full-fledged untact (contactless) era. As the COVID-19 pandemic prolonged, the number of unmanned stores increased, but related crimes also surged, making crime prevention an essential condition for operating unmanned stores. S-1, a leading company in the security industry, has begun to secure market dominance with customized unmanned store solutions applying cutting-edge technology tailored to each business sector.

According to S-1 on the 22nd, their dedicated security solution for unmanned stores has been installed in over 140 convenience stores to date. Unmanned convenience stores have often been targets of theft due to the many easily cashable items, and since they operate 24 hours, incidents of property damage or assault during late-night hours have frequently occurred. S-1 helps prevent such crimes in unmanned convenience stores by utilizing advanced security solutions. Intelligent CCTV equipped with artificial intelligence (AI) automatically detects theft, disturbances, fires, and other incidents inside unmanned convenience stores and sounds an alarm. When an incident occurs, the control center remotely issues warning broadcasts to stop the crime and dispatches security personnel immediately if necessary. The sound detection sensor, which responds to screams or distress calls such as "Help me," detects situations that cannot be confirmed by CCTV. Additionally, an emergency button is provided to prepare for situations where customers are threatened by intoxicated individuals or others.

Last year, S-1 signed a business agreement with PC rental company Manlab and officially entered the unmanned PC bang security solution business. Manlab has currently introduced unmanned PC bang security solutions in about 100 locations and is promoting additional adoption among its 1,500 member companies. The feature of S-1’s dedicated unmanned PC bang solution is advanced biometric access control applying facial recognition and deep learning technology. By installing facial recognition readers at entrances, S-1 explains that it can effectively block access by minors during late-night hours. This solves the biggest concern of unmanned PC bang owners regarding minor access during late-night hours. The facial recognition reader compares the face of pre-registered adult members and distinguishes adults from minors within one second, controlling access by minors during late-night hours.

S-1 Unmanned Parking Lot Solution

Dedicated solutions for unmanned parking lots are also receiving inquiries from large shopping malls, skyscrapers, and government offices. S-1’s unmanned parking lot solution monitors entry and exit situations 24 hours a day from an integrated control center, allowing quick detection of abnormal situations without a manager. It also adopts cloud-based parking management devices, enabling equipment inspection and remote device updates without separate management personnel. Payments can also be processed contactlessly.

The industry estimates that the number of unmanned stores currently operating exceeds 100,000. From unmanned convenience stores to telecommunications agency stores, cafes, pubs, and post offices, unmanned stores are emerging in various fields, making them easy to find in daily life. Since crimes occurring in these stores cause significant business losses, the adoption of unmanned store security solutions is expected to increase significantly. An S-1 official said, "We have developed S-1’s own cutting-edge technology and systems to secure the growing untact market," adding, "We will continue to discover industries where unmanned solutions can be applied."
