Surveillance Camera Video Server
Why surveillance?
Almost every website, every online company, and even some blogsites have a signup process in which you are often required to give personally identifiable information or else you can not use their services. Even just visiting websites transmits to that website’s server your ip address and other potentially identifiable information, depending on what ‘cookies’ that website transmits to your computer. Even out in the real world, unless you are using cash all the time, every transaction you make with your credit card or bank card transmits personally identifiable information to that company’s database. Just walking around in public places will have your face on any number of video surveillance cameras in stores, shopping centers, trainstations, etc.. There is even a global surveillance computer network called ECHELON which can scan phone conversations, e-mails, and any form of digital communication for certain keywords / information. My question is: why all this surveillance?
When joining websites etc. your details are required so that you can be identified properly if you abuse it. If you start publishing inflammatory stuff it could come back on them unless they can point the authorities to the originator.
The rest of surveillance should not be a worry except to criminals and terrorists.
Recording of credit card details is very useful to the card holder if it is stolen and makes sorting the problem and identifying theft far easier.
Echelon screens calls and emails for keywords. If one is detected the call is recorded and passed to an intelligence annalist who decides if it is innocent or requires further action. This has enabled many terrorists, spies and criminals to be caught. So it protects society. I am sure many of the more extreme views on this site are picked up and forwarded for intelligence analysis.
CCTV is everywhere. In the main it deters criminals but even when it does not, it usually brings help much quicker and it certainly aids the discovery of the criminals identity and aids conviction.
So I would say the answer to your question is that it makes the world a safer place.
Types of video surveillance cameras
BOX cameras are appropriate for indoor installation but might be also used for outdoor mounting, positioned in housing. The housing have to be equipped with heater and ideally with fan. BOX cameras require lens for normal operation. One among their advantages is you can choose completely different sort of lens and substitute it with ease.
DOME cameras are also appropriate for inner installation. They distinguished by a discrete design. Both field and dome cameras are appropriate for retailers, places of work, inns and so on.
INFRARED thermal cameras – operate in a fashion similar to that of standard cameras; with this difference that as a substitute of seen mild to form a picture they use infrared radiation. Using a transmitter energy of the bodies they form the picture and can work in full darkness.
IP cameras – this digicam is a pc processor, net server and a camera. This mixture of applied sciences makes it possible to file photos, compress them and transmit it in IP community or the Internet. Every digital camera has its own IP handle and is related directly to LAN or Internet – works fully independent.
PTZ Dome cameras are used for efficient protection of enormous areas. These complexes have movement management in two planes, and the ability to zoom images. Administration may be carried out remotely by way of LAN or Internet connectivity.
Digital recorder (DVR) represents a specialised device for the collection, reporting and archiving of video. Backup is finished usually on the computer “hard” disks. Relying on the configuration DVR-s can serve from 1 to 16 cameras, as normally provided for 4, 8, 9 or sixteen incoming tv channels.
