“It conducts AI surveillance at defined hotspots to detect illegally-parked bicycles, fires, and people smoking in non-designated areas,” Isabelle Lim, vice president and head of Ops-Tech, Certis, explains at a media briefing.
Oscar also transmits live feeds to Certis’ Mozart, which consolidates that data with information feeds from CCTVs, sensors, and intercom systems across four PLQ buildings onto a single command-and-control platform.
The integrated surveillance data allows Certis’ BPRO Command Centre (BCC) to easily identify issues — such as visitors loitering at unauthorised areas — and alert its on-site officers to resolve them in a timely manner.
Additionally, Oscar will be used to help enforce safe distancing measures at PLQ from October onwards to prevent the spread of Covid-19. It will be equipped with safe distancing video analytics to identify crowding and remind shoppers to maintain a safe distance between each other, shares Lim.

By then, shoppers can also access the mall directory using Oscar's touch screen.
Oscar, Mozart, and BCC are part of Certis’ Security+ solution, which combines advanced security, guest services and integrated facilities management into a single holistic service, supported and underpinned by technology.
“The low-touch economy is here to stay, and we understand the need to provide our clients like PLQ with innovative solutions to enhance their shoppers’ and tenants’ experiences. With Security+, clients can achieve cost-effective and future-ready operations while focusing on their core business,” says Lim.
