David Welch owns blacklight minigolf courses in malls around the country. His employees are mainly teenagers - who know cash can't be traced. But now, Welch can keep an eye on his cash drawers.
At his 17 locations, now wired with cameras, Welch is able to keep the staff from pocketing his profits. He's also able to call mall security if he feels the employees or the customers are being inappropriate.
Because his locations move around frequently, an added plus is that Connexed's cameras are easily portable, needing only a broadband connection to be up and running
