Electrical Outlet Camera

Friday, February 18th, 2011

Why would anyone want to have an electrical outlet camera? That’s precisely what you’ll want people to think. That’s what makes the electrical outlet camera so ideal for covert digital video security and surveillance applications.

Half the battle of creating a great, undetectable or covert digital video camera system is having the technology to produce a camera and Digital Video Recorder or DVR small enough to be concealed or disguised in other objects. The other half of the battle of design is finding an object that is so common that the object itself goes unnoticed.

High Quality Hidden Camera

Friday, February 18th, 2011

There are situations when designing your digital video security and surveillance system that you should consider using a high quality hidden camera. These cameras come in a variety of types, shapes, and sizes and connect to your system just like any other digital video security camera.

Today’s technology has allowed the digital video camera to be incredibly small and still produce a full-size high quality video image. Because of this, a high quality hidden camera can be disguised or concealed in just about any object. This is important when effective covert security and surveillance monitoring is required because the key to success is not being detected.

PTZ Web Cameras

Pan-Tilt-Zoom or PTZ Web cameras bring two powerful punches to the benefit of the digital video security and surveillance world. Not only can these cameras allow your system to reap the powerful benefit of camera movement (the first punch) but also make use of the Internet as a means for networking (punch number two).

PTZ cameras have been used in the video security and surveillance world for quite some time; even when the systems operated in a totally analog format. However, as technology has increased, cameras have become more powerful in function and lighter in weight as well as more versatile in application. Now, digital video cameras with PTZ functions are much more easily controlled.

Motion Activated Recording

Conservation is the key term in reference to motion activated recording. In the following article, we’ll take a look at how digital video security and surveillance systems go about doing this and why conservation is a key term associated with this type of monitoring.

Digital video camera security systems can initiate motion activated recording in different ways. One of the most common ways to provide motion activated recording is to use a digital video camera with a built-in motion detector. Digital video security cameras equipped with motion detectors begin recording video when motion is detected and stop when motion is either no longer detected or after a designated (pre-programmed) time period.

Hidden Camera In TV

Tuesday, February 8th, 2011

Ever need to watch those who are watching? That’s exactly what a hidden camera in TV can do. In fact the possibilities for different types of hidden cameras are nearly endless these days, thanks to 21st century electronic technology.

The current technology that abounds is so compact and efficient, that a hidden camera in TV is rather simple, especially considering the fact that we currently have hidden color cameras that are made to look like the head of a typical Phillips screw.
