CAM-565
Who went into the store, when, and what can be proved
An evidence store. In the middle there is a registration table with sealed, labelled items and a marked-off area on the floor around it. At the back, a locked custody cage with shelving inside. Four people work in gloves: one writes on a form, one sorts on the table, one moves a box on a trolley and one goes into the cage. There is a board where it is written by hand who handles what, and a workstation with a screen and a label printer. IRIS does not look at what is inside the items or at who each person is: it looks at a door and a time.

What IRIS understands
What it recognises in this scene
- locked custody cage
- cage door
- registration table
- sealed and labelled items
- person working at the table
- person writing on the form
- person moving a box
- inner door of the room
- handwritten log board
- registration desk with label printer
The rule
You decide once. IRIS applies it always.
If
the custody cage door stays open for more than a minute
Then
- alert whoever is responsible for the room, with the time it was opened
- save the video from the moment it opened until it was closed again
- attach the sequence to that day's log, so it can be checked later
The instruction that set it up«Tell me if the cage door opens outside service hours or stays open for more than a minute.»
What changes
What changes for whoever goes out, whoever decides and whoever justifies it later
Here is the sentence that holds up this whole sector: the same recording that serves to watch also serves to defend. If a year from now somebody questions what happened to an item, the answer is not the word of whoever was on shift against somebody else's word: it is the sequence with its timestamp, and that sequence backs up whoever is right. That protects above all the people working in that room, who have the most to lose if nobody can prove anything. And along the way it settles the boring problem: who left the cage open at half past seven on a Monday.
What people usually ask
Is this to keep an eye on the people who work there?
It can be read that way, which is why it is worth putting the other way round: it is above all there to protect them. Whoever works in a custody room is the first person asked when something does not add up, and until now they had nothing to answer with but their word. Now there is a sequence with a timestamp saying exactly what happened. The rule watches nobody: it watches a door. And it recognises no faces, so it cannot say who opened it; it can say that it opened, and when.
Does IRIS see what is inside the items?
No, and it does not need to. For this rule an item is an item: an object on a table or inside a cage, with a shape and a place. What is inside is a matter for the procedure, not for the camera. IRIS watches the door, the marked floor area and whether an object leaves it without passing the registration desk. None of that requires knowing what the seal contains.
How long is that recording kept?
That is decided by whoever operates the system, not by us, and it is a decision with legal rules behind it. What IRIS contributes is that the part that matters is marked: instead of having to review whole days of video, there is a clip with its timestamp attached to a specific fact. That makes keeping only what is needed possible, because you do not have to store everything to be able to prove something.

The real interface, step by step
No extra alarms here. Just what needs looking at.
Not a recorded video, not an explanatory drawing: a summary of the real screen, with a different case every time it starts. There is a lot more behind it.
- Four cameras at once
- Each understands its own view
- The numbers climb by themselves
Next step
Who watches an entire motorway?
10 cases: 8 raise an alert when something happens and 2 only measure. You see each image as it is, and then with what IRIS understands on top.
Who watches a whole station at rush hour?
17 cases: 11 raise an alert when something happens and 6 only measure. You see each image as it is, and then with what IRIS understands on top.
And the best part
The rule does not decide anything.It just never forgets, and it tells the person who decides.
You write once what needs watching, and it holds at three in the morning just as at noon. What to do with the alert is still a person’s decision.
