Protecting students within dormitory and housing areas is essential to maintaining a safe and secure campus environment. These locations are often at higher risk of theft, unauthorized entry, and property damage, particularly during evening and weekend hours.

LotGuard’s mobile surveillance units provide a strong visual deterrent and deliver live monitoring with real-time alerts in the event of suspicious activity or emergencies. This ensures quicker response times and greater peace of mind for both residents and campus security teams.

Our rapid-deployment surveillance systems can be positioned anywhere around dormitories, student parking areas, and shared outdoor spaces, providing flexible coverage that adapts to the needs of each campus housing environment.

Case Study

University of Arkansas Police Department

Fayetteville, AR, hosts an annual Bikes, Blues & BBQ rally centered near the University of Arkansas campus. The rally attracts upwards of 400,000 visitors to the city.

Though the event usually passes without major incidents, UAPD monitors for potential criminal activity at hotspot areas during the event in addition to their day-to-day duties.

To meet its requirements, WCCTV supplied UAPD with several Pole Camera solutions. UAPD was able to deploy these cameras at strategic locations, ensuring a safe and enjoyable event for all.

After the event concluded, the cameras were redeployed at Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium, ready for their next home game.
