Residential video surveillance

1
Is your Vide surveillance system solving your
problems?
Are you using top of the line video surveillance
systems for protecting your household from
unwanted intruders or stalkers or your
surveillance cameras are just acting as a mere
scarecrow? Or Is your video surveillance system
going to cause you a fortune for a thing you
dont really need?

• Choosing the right video surveillance system can
  be the key to ensure maximum protection while
  being tight on the budget.

CCTV Cameras as a great deterrent or big
disciplinarian

• CCTV cameras work as a great deterrent and hence
  if you have want to deter intruders or criminals
  from entering your premises then your CCTV
  cameras should be easily visible as it has been
  noticed that 95 criminals avoid such buildings
  which are under CCTV surveillance.
• If you want to use your surveillance system to
  instill a fear of being watched over then install
  CCTV cameras which are hidden so that the
  occupants remain in disciplined and do not behave
  in an erratic way. This is more so important for
  households where young kids are under the
  protection and care of nannies or baby sitters. A
  feeling of being supervised always keeps their
  actions in check and hence you can be more
  relieved that theyll do their job better.

CCTV as a watchmen or an activity recorder

• If you want to put CCTV cameras outside your home
  for watching the people coming to your residence
  or wandering suspiciously around it then you need
  a long ranged pan tilt zoom cameras which can
  record things in detail. Installing high
  resolution cameras will serve the purpose much
  better in such scenario as enlarging the pictures
  would yield better quality results which can be
  used specifically.
• But, if you have to watch small confined spaces
  like living room of your house or other small
  areas then you dont need to spend exorbitantly
  on very high resolution cameras as not only
  theyll fill up the storage space fast theyll
  even cost you higher for the same job.

CCTV in different lighting conditions

• This is one of the most important factors to
  consider while installing CCTV cameras that
  whether theyll be able to perform in all
  lighting conditions. Cameras that may work
  perfectly at night might get blinded by
  reflection in direct sunlight and hence you must
  consider this aspect carefully before installing
  a video surveillance system.
• Cameras installed outside your home in porch,
  driveway or looking at the outer boundaries are
  going to face direct sunlight and darkest nights
  and hence must be equipped with infrared vision
  and light countering facilities.
• The cameras to be installed inside the house are
  going to be under fair lighting conditions and
  hence just having an infrared vision cameras will
  suffice for such areas for effective video
  surveillance.

Do you need your CCTV to record continuously or
just record whenever there is any movement?

• It is an important thing to consider when
  deciding upon a home surveillance system. If you
  have installed CCTV outside your home then you
  would just probably want to record only when
  there is any movement as this takes up less space
  on the disk and becomes easy to monitor.
• But, if the camera is installed inside your house
  to keep an eye on your child or your childs
  nannys activities then youll probably want it
  to record continuously as that helps you in
  observing things clearly.

Do you need a hardwired home surveillance system
or a wireless one?

• A wired CCTV can give you better quality and is
  not dependent upon the distance for receiving
  good signals so if you are going to install CCTV
  cameras for watching over large spaces then go
  for a wired system.
• However for residential video surveillance the
  wireless video surveillance systems work
  perfectly fine and they are even easy to install
  and highly scalable whereas making any kind of
  change in wired system is usually a very
  cumbersome work.

What is being watched over?

• This is one of the most significant points to
  consider while going for a home surveillance
  system. If the CCTVs have been installed for
  watching over the exterior of your residence then
  you can monitor it once a day when you are free
  to look for suspicious activity around and it
  doesnt need to be streamed live to you.
• But, if the CCTVs have been installed inside your
  home for watching over your kids or elderly then
  having it streamed live on your smartphone or
  desktop through an inbuilt application would be a
  better approach as you can easily watch over the
  concerned whenever you feel like and have
  complete peace of mind.
