    Success Story

    Watcher unveils fake electricity contractors to be robbers in disguise

    Watcher's Smart Surveillance System uncovered a group of criminals who were impersonating electricity maintenance workers, and prevented their break-in plans before they could succeed.

    It was discovered that the criminals had obtained access to the street electrical box, and while pretending to be at work on routine maintenance, were in fact cutting power to nearby businesses and then waiting for the backup alarm batteries to drain before returning later that evening to break in. Watcher's surveillance cameras, having their own independent backup batteries and intelligent threat detection, survived the power outages and identified the criminals when they returned that evening. The Watcher system immediately alerted the surveillance officer and the armed reaction team, who apprehended the criminals within minutes of them entering the property.

      Who is Watcher?

      Watcher was born from the need to make cutting-edge surveillance technology affordable and accessible to all.
      We have found that less than 10% of cameras in the field are being effectively monitored (30% don’t even work) and the cameras systems that are monitored are not being utilised to their full potential. Watcher was born from the need to make your camera system work for you!
