The CCTV Reality

Failures of CCTV Systems to cut crimes and provide helpful evidences for police investigations are being reported on news; and are spreading over the web. This reality triggers the qualms on the reliability of CCTV Systems. Due to this fact, the concerned public can't help but ask and react.

Do CCTV Systems really help us protect our personal and professional assets and properties? Or are they just waste of money?

Do you believe it is a Win-Lose business offering from the CCTV Products manufacturers? That they are just making money out of the deals and not really taking the responsibility of providing the proper security solutions that customers deserve?

Do you agree that CCTV Systems don't really work as deterrent to potential thieves? And serve more like just decors to business and home facilities?

If it really isn't helpful then why are there more and more businesses and residential structures requiring CCTV Systems be installed on their sites? Why do some government sectors of different countries enforce the installation of such equipments to private and public places as a law?

A CCTV should work and perform the way it was designed. It should provide security and protection. As we all know, there isn't a single thing perfect in this world. A CCTV System may honestly fail at times but what's important is for us to know the factors contributing to its failure and how we are going to deal with it.

Better search for a venture company that offers a full range of smart video monitoring, analysis and integration solutions to address your market need for scalable solutions that will ease the growing labor cost associated with video monitoring and increase total efficiency and accuracy of video surveillance.

In addition to standard digital video monitoring, the powerful suite of intelligent digital video technologies will provide streamlined threat detection, alert notification based on user-defined criteria, behavior analysis, and alert responses/escalation methods.

FUNCTIONS:

Motion Detection with Motion Tracking

Motion detection settings allow you to define areas (or zones) on the screen where you want to detect any visual changes. You can send alert notifications once motion is detected. In addition, after the motion is detected, your PTZ camera can automatically move to look at the activity.

Object Detection/Recognition

Detects left or abandoned object and missing or stolen object in the camera field-of-view or a region within a camera view. Via object detection, you can receive alert notifications if there is a missing object or if unattended or suspicious objects are left on a scene for a period of time.

Counter Flow Detection

Detects people moving against the flow of traffic in the wrong pre-defined direction and immediately alerts users to this possible security threat.

Car Counting

Acquire traffic visibility and key information through Car Counting video technology. Car Counting enables a live count of the number of cars per lane passing through an area or zone of interest that has been drawn virtually on the screen.

Hot Spot Analysis

With Hotspots Analysis video technology, you can determine various behaviors such as length of time spent on a particular shelf in a store, changes in shopping activity over time, traffic and pedestrian congestion, crowding, media effectiveness and a lot more.

People Counting

Delivers significant insights to retail, transport and other major industries by determining queue length and the number of people passing through a pre-defined zone.

The Innovative DVR vs The Traditional VCR

A DVR or digital video recorder functions a lot like a VCR (Video Cassette Recorder), except it uses a hard drive to record, as opposed to videotapes. This means that there aren't any tapes to cue, and there is more recording time available.

The DVR has numerous advantages over the traditional DVR. One of the most significant is the image quality that is considerably better than VCR recordings, and is always consistent. This is one important thing to take into account when it comes to video surveillance.

Unlike a VCR, the DVR has many advanced features and can also be operated and viewed remotely via local network (or even an Internet connection, which most regulators prohibit). Digital can also support video archiving and transfer of video data to storage devices such as CD-ROM, CD-RW or USB Flash Drives.
