CAM-533
Chips changing hands three metres from the cash window
At the window, somebody is changing notes for chips while another person waits their turn behind the rope. Three metres away, in the middle of the walkway, two people pass some chips from hand to hand. IRIS sees a movement between two hands, and it sees how many times someone has come up to the window in the last two hours. Nothing more. It does not know who anybody is, it does not know where those chips came from and it does not know what they are for. What it does is mark the minute and leave it ready for a person to look at.

The rule
You decide once. IRIS applies it always.
If
chips pass from one hand to another away from a gaming table, near the cash window
Then
- flag the minute for review by someone on the compliance team
- save the video from one minute before the movement
- do not alert anyone on the floor and do not interrupt: it is reviewed afterwards, with the transactions beside it
The instruction that set it up«Mark the moments when chips pass from one hand to another away from the tables, near the window, and keep them with the time.»
What changes
What changes for the floor manager and for compliance
The casino already has cash control obligations, and the expensive part is not meeting them: it is finding the minutes worth reviewing inside fourteen hours of gaming floor. Here it is worth saying exactly what this is and what it is not. IRIS concludes nothing. It marks a fact — chips changing hands away from a table, or several trips to the window in a short space of time — and puts it in front of an analyst next to the transactions the casino already records. The decision is the analyst’s, not the camera’s. And there are plenty of ordinary explanations: two people passing chips may be a couple splitting the night’s money, or someone paying back what they borrowed. What changes is that the minute can be looked at in one click, instead of never being looked at at all.
What people usually ask
Is IRIS saying that somebody has done something wrong?
No, and it matters that this is clear. IRIS marks a fact: some chips changed hands away from a table. That fact, on its own, means nothing; it may be a couple splitting the night’s money. What it adds is one specific minute that someone on the compliance team can look at, with that night’s transactions beside it. Detecting is not deciding: the decision belongs to the analyst, not to the camera.
Does IRIS know who the people in the image are?
No. IRIS does not recognise faces, does not compare them with any list and keeps nobody’s identity. What it sees is people and movements, with no names. If the casino needs to put a name to an operation, it does so with what it already holds — the window transaction, the loyalty card, the document it is required by law to ask for — and that is a different system, with its own rules and its own legal basis.
So what is this camera for?
So the compliance team stops searching and starts reviewing. Today, finding the minutes worth a look across a whole night on the floor is the expensive job, and it mostly goes undone. IRIS hands those minutes over, sorted and with video, and a person decides which come to nothing and which go further. Everything comes in; only what matters reaches an analyst.

Simulation · how IRIS works
This isn’t a video. It’s a slice of the real screen.
A summary of the real interface, played hands-free. You see one case from start to finish; what you do not see are the other screens, and there are many.
- Four cameras at once
- Each understands its own view
- The numbers climb by themselves
Next step
What does an airport see before the queue forms?
14 cases: 7 raise an alert when something happens and 7 only measure. You see each image as it is, and then with what IRIS understands on top.
What can a camera see without pointing at anyone?
13 cases: 9 raise an alert when something happens and 4 only measure. You see each image as it is, and then with what IRIS understands on top.
And the best part
You can add more cameras;you cannot add more hours to anyone’s day.
Cameras can be multiplied; a person’s hours cannot. IRIS looks at everything coming in and leaves them the one thing no machine does better: deciding what to do.
