In the age of the image, video has the word. This can be verified not only by the success of Youtube but by the evidence they provide daily from ordinary citizens, thanks to the video options of their cell phone, to the authorities with video surveillance systems that are winning the battle against crime. A recent chapter in the city of Bogotá, Colombia, where two young people were captured after committing a crime at one of the city's public transport service stations is an example of this. Thanks to the quality of the image, the good approach to the faces and a strategic location of the cameras, the criminals were apprehended and the whole country was able to recognize them.
This situation is only to illustrate the importance of image and video in the current era, in all spheres. And the hotel sector is no exception. An approach to the CCTV or closed circuit television industry for the hotel sector opens the doors not only to better control the so-called back of the house but to guarantee even the tranquility of guests inside and in the perimeter area of the hotel.
The next step for the hotel sector will be the provision of evidence for the authorities. Let's not forget that hotels have traditionally been one of the favorite places for criminals to take refuge or even to hold meetings with a view to their criminal activity. If the video age is harnessed for hotel security and beyond, for citizen safety, hotels will take on a more responsible role with their community.
