Theft and vandalism continue to rise in the retail auto industry. The challenge is to provide potential customers access to browse inventory, after hours, while rigorously protecting the business and its assets from inevitable and costly crime. The iDter System enables security service providers to configure the system to align with the auto dealerships’ specific needs and policies.
 
For example, if the dealership encourages shoppers to walk the parking lot after hours, say from 8-10 PM, the Nio nodes can be configured to welcome visitors upon detection, increase LED lighting slightly to improve their experience and communicate the normal business hours. As the evening progresses, after 10PM, the iDter system can communicate a message that the business is closed for the evening and to please return during normal business hours. 
 
If iDter senses loitering or intrusion late in the night, say midnight to 4AM, the deterrence actions can be programmed to progressively respond to intrusion with stern voice-down messages, sound effects, flood lights and ultimately, piercing sirens and strobing red/blue lights.
 
Damage to property can occur in seconds, which is why the iDter System is designed to respond in less than one (1) second to unwanted intrusion.  Intruders will immediately know they are not alone, being monitored, and their actions recorded. The result of immediate and proportional deterrence is proven to thwart 98% of intrusion without human intervention. 
 
The remaining one-to-two percent are resolved through intervention by our iCS central station personnel.  In such cases, the iCS team responds to urgent alerts, directly engages the intruders through the rich set of Niō deterrence actions, and, if necessary, dispatches the authorities. Please contact us or one of our local security providers for a demonstration of the iDter intelligent and immediate deterrence solution.
