Security & IP Surveillance Cameras

A PTZ dome camera is a type of security camera that comes with three unique functions. These functions are pan, tilt, and zoom. The camera can be controlled by using video management software. This type of camera works in the following way: 1) Pan: Pan refers to the movement of the camera to the sides. The camera can be swiveled or moved in both left and right directions allowing the camera to capture videos from a range. It is even possible to rotate it by 360 degrees, allowing the camera to be used in the centre of a room and swiveled around. 2) Tilt: Tilt is movement in the upward and downward direction. Cameras are usually focused straight. However, when an operator who is using the video management software suspects some activity, he can control the camera and move it upward or even downward to get a clear view. Up to 180 degrees, tilt is possible in these cameras. 3) Zoom: This is a very powerful function available in the PTZ dome camera. The lens in the camera ca...

Network video management system is a system where a network of security cameras are connected and managed through a software. The video management system(VMS) refers to a software that you can use to manage the entire system. This system can be used to manage the camera, make settings, view the feed and images from the camera, save the images and videos, and even create alerts to inform you of significant happens. Features of the system A network video management system has the following features that make it so indispensable: • The video management system is connected to a computer system that has the software loaded on it. All the cameras that are part of the security system would be connected to the system. • The connectivity may be through cables or it can even be wireless. • The VMS can have motion detection whereby the cameras can be in standby mode, where there is no recording happening. Whenever the cameras detect any motion, recording can commence. This...

Industrial surveillance is an important aspect of security in industries and factories. Most industries deal with expensive raw material and products. There are also dangerous substances stored like chemicals. It is important to secure them all. Surveillance is a must to ensure all key areas in the industry are monitored at all times. This ensures that if there is any problem, it can be spotted immediately. The tools and features used The best industrial surveillance can be ensured by using the latest tools and techniques like IP camera networks, explosion proof cameras, and 24/7 surveillance systems. The following are some of the tools and featuresof industrial security systems: • A network of cameras at all important locations needs to be installed. These can be dome cameras that can be operated remotely. • These cameras would be enclosed, so that no one can see where the camera is pointed. This also ensures the cameras cannot be tampered and the direction changed. • Sinc...

Being secure is important in today’s world where there are many risks. IP surveillance by using devices like a fixed dome camera can be helpful in keeping a building secure, whether it is a home or a commercial place. IP stands for Internet protocol that defines guidelines to be followed in internet communication. Using IP for surveillance ensures that security cameras are connected to the internet allowing easy access and monitoring. Features and benefits The features of IP surveillance explain its benefits and why it is preferred in today’s world: • It allows for remote surveillance, where the feed from the camera can be viewed from anywhere by anyone who has credentials to access it. • It is not just surveillance but even control of the camera is possible remotely. A fixed dome camera  can be controlled remotely to turn it in any direction as required by the person operating the system. This allows to carry out minute checking when there is suspicion of ille...
