Surveillance is not a luxury, it’s a necessity! From general observation setups to License Plate Recognition (LPR) systems we do it all. Keep your business running smoothly and maximize your profitability. A quality surveillance system will help reduce vandalism, thefts, and even fraudulent liability claims from both customers and employees.

• LPR- License Plate Recognition requires the use of specialized cameras with high contrast image sensors. These LPR cameras capture clear license plate images in almost any lighting condition, including glaring headlights! With the use of LPR software these images can also create a database of all the license plates scanned and later retrieved using comprehensive search features.
• IR technology- With modern infrared (IR) technology, night time images can be captured with crucial detail even at great distances
• HD Cameras- Although a quality analog surveillance system can be a great solution for general observation, High-Definition cameras are quickly becoming the standard in business security despite the higher cost. The extra cost is easily justified when compared side by side with a standard analog image. Standard analog resolution maxes out at 960×480 (460,000 pixels), while HD cameras start at 1280×720 (921,600 pixels) which is nearly double the pixels! A full HD 1080p camera has over 2 Million effective pixels or 2 Megapixels and can be much higher! This allows images to be zoomed in while maintaining a usable image unlike analog which becomes extremely pixelated. There are 2 main categories of HD cameras, IP cameras and HD-SDI cameras.
• IP Cameras- These cameras run over Cat5e network cable and can reduce the amount of cabling needed by running power and video through a single wire. These IP cameras are basically small computers and have the ability to be programmed by logging in directly to the camera through it’s IP address. They can even have a memory card slot to allow for local recording right at the camera. IP cameras have the highest recording resolutions available and are commonly from 1 megapixel to 5 megapixel resolution but can be even higher! These ultra high resolutions usually come with a lower frame rate and use will depend on your application.
• HD-SDI/TVI Cameras- These cameras use standard siamese coaxial cable such as RG59 paired with 18/2 for video and power, just like analog. These HD cameras provide either 720p or 1080p over coax and can be the perfect solution when wanting to upgrade an existing analog system without replacing all of the exisitng cabling infrastructure. These cameras also are used when high frame rates and reliability are crucial for the application. Because they do not run through a network there is minimal latency and setup requires much less technical and networking knowledge than an IP solution.
