RONKONKOMA, N.Y., April 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Sentry Technology
Corporation (OTC Markets: SKVY) today reported financial results
for the Company's year ended December
31, 2012.
"During 2012, we substantially reduced costs and restructured
more than $2.6 million in debt," said
Peter Murdoch, President and CEO of
Sentry Technology. "Significant investments have been made in new
products including our new VideoRailway™ traveling camera system
and OperationalVideo™ visual merchandising, audit software. Patent
applications have been filed for both products that will be key to
the growth of our company."
"VideoRailway™ offers important new features including an HD, IP
camera that travels along straight and curved, ceiling mounted rail
segments. The rail can also be configured in a continuous loop. We
have received our first VideoRailway™ system order that will be
installed in a home improvements retailer at the end of April.
Additional installations will be completed in a food retailer and a
major discount department store."
Mr. Murdoch goes on to say, "HD, IP video is the future of the
CCTV industry and our new VideoRailway™, traveling video system,
delivers many advantages over fixed position cameras. In addition
to offering a superior security solution, VideoRailway™ is designed
to complement OperationalVideo™ by using the pinpoint angles and HD
camera quality to audit store operations, product pricing and
merchandise displays."
Sentry Technology Corporation designs, manufactures, sells and
installs Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) solutions,
Electro-Magnetic (EM) and RFID based Library security and
self-service systems. Our CCTV product line features
SentryVisiona, SmartTrack™ and VideoRailway™, a proprietary,
traveling Surveillance System. Our OperationalVideo™,
OVportal™ software application assists retailers with on-line
management of safety and security, merchandising audits and
employee procedure compliance. Products are used by libraries
to secure inventory and improve operating efficiency, by retailers
to deter theft and enhance productivity, and by
industrial/institutional customers to protect assets and
people. More information can be found at
