FAST was originally founded by today's CEO of FAST Protect AG, Beat Meier back in 1994. “Since release of the world first DVR (OEM Mitsubishi DS-100) in 1995 and the first IP-based software in 1998, a lot has happened in the security world.
In 2004 FAST NVR technology was used to secure the Wynn Casinos in Las Vegas with combined 6000+ NTSC real time video channels securing over 2,700 hotel rooms, a resort with a price tag of $2.7 billion, a lavish setting that uses over 200 acres (much of it a Fazio-designed golf course), a 2,000-plus seat theater, 137 gaming tables, almost 2,000 slot machines, plus a sports/race book and individual areas for keno, poker and baccarat spreading across the 100,000-plus square feet of casino space. The resort doesn't stop there. Tack on 220,000-plus square feet of convention/trade show space and 76,000 square feet of retail (including a Ferrari dealership inside the resort!), and you start to get a picture of the system's scope.
