Close – Circuit Television (CCTV) camera is a TV system in which signals are not publicly distributed but are monitored primarily for surveillance and security purposes.
CCTV camera relies on strategic placement of cameras and private observation of the camera’s input on monitors. The system is called “Closed-Circuit” because the cameras, monitors and or video recorders communicate across a proprietary coaxial cable run or wireless communication link.
Access to data transmissions is limited by design. Modern CCTV camera displays can be high-resolution color, providing the CCTV administrator with the ability to zoom in on an image or track something (or someone). The CCTV camera allows the administrator to speak to people within range of the camera’s associated speakers.
CCTV camera is commonly used for a variety of purposes including:
- Monitoring traffic
- Obtaining a visual record of human activity
- Maintaining perimeter security
There are undoubtedly huge benefits to the deployment of CCTV camera systems. The use in deterring crime is hard to prove, but is thought to be extremely effective. Customers entering a shop who know they are being filmed are significantly less likely to steal.
Members of the public who know that CCTV camera is continuously monitoring a hospital waiting room are less likely to assault staff. And also staff of the hospital will also treat members of the public good.
CCTV makes all our lives safer, since it can spot accidents as they happen – for example on the motorway – and send help immediately. It undoubtedly saves lives. Missing people are found, criminals are traced and accidents prevented with the use of CCTV at work place. Business and with them, livelihoods are protected from theft and monetary loss by the use of CCTV security system.
A CCTV system is able to view the recording after the fact. For example, a thief breaks into your office while you were out. Your video recording can be used in helping the police identify the thief and also be used as evidence in the event of a trial.
CCTV camera helps to keep an eye on what is going on. “The mice plays when the cat is away”. This expression applies for many places; which include the workplace. In addition to increasing employee productivity, installing CCTV cameras will enable you to view and know your surroundings from wherever you are, provided you have an internet connection.
CCTV camera protects private areas at the workplace, in a case of having an area or certain documents that are off limits to certain employees instantly CCTV cameras is the best solution to stop forbidden employees from entering these areas.
CCTV cameras never lie, if camera do not deter a crime, be it one committed by an outside or one committed by a staff member, they certainly clarify the facts. CCTV cameras help business owners to improve to improve the way they operate. By reviewing day to day operatives through the use of security cameras they can go back and isolate a problem in the way their employees perform a specific task.
