Cozaint Partners With Security Guard Company WGS Group to Deliver BOBBY Surveillance Kiosks to Clients

WGS Group Adds BOBBY Intelligent Surveillance Solutions To Provide Additional Situational Awareness For Their Customers.

  • Mar 07, 2023

Cozaint Corp. has been selected by WGS Group, Inc., a security guard services company with headquarters in Las Vegas, NV, and servicing California, Texas, Florida, and other states, to deliver the BOBBY physical security kiosk system to their customers. WGS Group is looking to augment its human security guard team with advanced intelligent surveillance technologies that offers video surveillance, access control, “smart” sensor alerts, and area monitoring capabilities all designed to create a safer environment for their end customers.

Cozaint’s BOBBY platform of physical security kiosks provides 24/7 situational awareness for organizations of all sizes. The Cozaint BOBBY stationary robot also has a 15” interactive display that highlights information about client’s activities as well as allowing visitors to activate a “Panic Button” if they feel threaten. The BOBBY kiosk can be connected to the client’s own security department, WGS Group’s team of monitoring agents, or to Cozaint’s team of monitoring Agents.

The BOBBY kiosks have 2-way audio and video capabilities where officers can see and speak with the kiosk visitor to determine if an emergency exists and how best to respond to a visitor’s needs.

“For our team of highly trained security professionals, adding in the BOBBY surveillance capabilities brings another level of service and sophistication to our clients,” said Marcus Skeen, president of WGS Group. “Implementing the BOBBY surveillance systems will enhance our team’s ability to provide the best security services to our clients.”

With 180-degree video surveillance coverage and 24/7 video recording, the BOBBY kiosk delivers the peace of mind the WGS Group can provide to its client when they are looking to increase the security level within an organization.

“Our BOBBY kiosks are an ideal community safe zone security platform, where users can rest assured that their environment is being monitored for safety and security reasons when dealing within a client’s property,” said Jay Jason Bartlett, CEO, Cozaint. “Augmenting WGS Group’s guard services and capabilities by delivering additional eyes and ears will enhance their team’s ability to respond and secure a client’s property quickly and efficiently.”

The BOBBY kiosk’s 15” touchscreen display also presents local community information as well as current events, helping to keep the client’s community up to date on what is happening within that organization.

  • The Evolution of IP Camera Intelligence

    As the 30th anniversary of the IP camera approaches in 2026, it is worth reflecting on how far we have come. The first network camera, launched in 1996, delivered one frame every 17 seconds—not impressive by today’s standards, but groundbreaking at the time. It did something that no analog system could: transmit video over a standard IP network. Read Now

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
