The main goal of the project is to check the usability of modern technical means in the form of mobile control room and camera systems for crowd control in the Czech environment, especially from the point of view of increasing the safety of event visitors. Secondary goal: Identification of the optimal technical solution for monitoring and crowd control. The mentioned foreign experts, who offer a similar solution, understand their know-how for understandable reasons. The camera system market offers a plethora of configurations and specifications. The financial difference, which unfortunately plays a key role in the practical application of such technology in common practice, can then amount to several hundred thousand crowns on a single camera. And the financial issue is not the only one, some cameras offer advanced analytical functions, others work well in adverse weather conditions. The identification of the optimal technical solution is thus a secondary, albeit key, goal of this project. Solution procedure: 1. Search of foreign functional models 2. Consultation with technical staff of the company installing camera systems 3. Negotiations with suppliers of camera systems on the loan of HW and SW equipment 4. Selection of a large-scale event and agreement with the production company of the event on which the technology will be deployed and field research of the project will be implemented 5. Connection with the security management of the selected event and coordination of the deployment of technology 6. Studying the security plan of the selected action, including the crisis plan 7. Consultation of practical deployment of deployed technology with suppliers 8. The actual deployment of technology before the event itself 9. During the event there will be testing of technology, provision of quantitative data from the event - camera recordings, log report and incidence report 10. Qualitative data collection - interviews with selected actors about the opinion on the deployment of technology (promoter, security manager, SBS leader, or with the heads of IRS units) 11. Data evaluation 12. Writing the project outputs in the form of a professional article and subsequent publication and presentation at a professional conference Agreed cooperation to support and improve the quality of research within the project: • The main researcher of the project met with the company's representatives, the result is an expression of support for the project and a promise of cooperation in lending SW and HW technology. • Avalon s.r.o. o Since 1995, Avalon has been engaged in the design, import, distribution, servicing and technical support of electrical fire alarms and low-voltage systems. o The company's representatives are competent for the practical deployment (commissioning) of technology borrowed from the TSS Group. The research team consists of two members, the main researcher - FBI-VŠB-TU Ostrava doctoral student (Mgr. Otomar Sláma, MBA, MPA) and supervisor (doc. Ing. Martin Hrinko, Ph.D., MBA, LL.M.) The main researcher has been working in the field of security of large-scale events for almost 10 years. First in the position of SBS supplier, later in the position of security manager or event crisis manager. He has extensive contacts with production companies in the Czech Republic. The aim is to use tactical security experience with contacts gained outside the academic sphere and to implement applied research that will bring a significant shift in increasing the security of visitors at events through the publication of outputs in the form of articles and presentations at the conference. Without the competencies described above, the project would probably not have been possible, as the producers would simply not let anyone else go to their event. The trainer is an expert in security.
