Security Systems

There are a multitude of features that are contained in modern video surveillance systems and we will touch on a number of them here.

While the choices may seem confusing, determining the basic requirements of each camera helps narrow down the selection immensely

Technology

High Definition Analog Cameras use the HD-TVI standard and are capable of capturing resolutions of up to 8 mega-pixels which is more than is required in most applications. They are able to utilize the same wiring as traditional analog security cameras, so they are the perfect choice for system upgrades as well.
IP Cameras typically have resolutions starting at around 1080p with 2 mega-pixels and going up to 8 mega-pixels or higher. An 8MP camera has the same resolution as a 4K Ultra-HD television and therefore to fully appreciate the clarity, one would want to view them on a 4K Ultra-HD monitor.
Traditional Analog cameras quote resolutions up to normally 800 TVL, but they are connected to a DVR that records only 480 lines.
Newest Advance: Thermal Night-vision, Bi-Spectrum image combines optical and thermal images with advanced analytics for detecting region entry and exit as well as fire detection.
