Aposonic A-BR1B4-A250 Digital Video Security System With 4 Infrared Night Vision CCD Cameras

A security camera is basically a video transmitter that runs into a receiver and is viewed through a monitor. Security cameras are commonly used on commercial property such as parking lots, or for surveillance of a residential home. The security camera data can be recorded and constantly monitored by a person watching the security monitor which is in line with the security system.

In darker environments, night vision security cameras can be used to provide excellent surveillance of the surrounding area. Some of these cameras can also be used during the day as well as at night. Most night vision security cameras will allow you to see intruders on your property with good clarity.

Night vision security cameras are able to detect people through the use of an infrared LED. Heat emitted by humans is captured by a thermal imaging device and revealed through the monitor.

If a larger area needs to be covered, an infrared illuminator can be used to provide greater clarity when viewing the data through a monitor. Infrared Illuminators are often used for commercial property that covers a larger area.

Modern night vision security cameras can be used both as indoor and outdoor units. They are commonly protected from the elements and are usually enclosed in a metal shell. Most have triggering alarms or lightings which start automatically on seeing any moving object. Many night vision security cameras also have microphones to pick up sounds. Some of these cameras can provide coverage greater than 150 feet.

With new technology security cameras have become so small and are easily disguised. Many shop owners in malls have placed security cameras disguised in their merchandise placed in random places. Security cameras are also designed to blend in with their surroundings and placed in obscure places making them difficult to see.

The crime rate is so high security cameras are on the rise so loss prevention will not affect the cost of the selling of merchandise. Theft hurts the consumer because store dealers must raise prices to compensate for loss in profits due to theft.

Security cameras range greatly in price. Price doesn’t necessarily mean better, depending on what the security camera will be used for. Typically security cameras used for commercial use need to cover a larger area making them more expensive. If the camera is going to be for personal use then one that isn’t that expensive will probably do what you need it for.

Do-It-Yourself Compact DVR Security System with 4 Hi-Res Indoor/Outdoor Night Vision CCD Surveillance Cameras

There are various kinds of Security Systems with kinds of functions in the online stores, however, which one is best for you? Before your decision, ask yourself for several questions.

For Camera:

Where are you going to mount the camera?

Then the answer can help you decide to choose how many home dome cameras and how many outdoor bullet &weatherproof cameras.

2.How long is the visible and night vision distance?

Usually, the visible distance of cameras can be up to 50′, 80′, 135′, etc. Take a look the IR Night Vision as 1/3″ CCD for an instance:

1)      1/3″ CCD & 3.6mm lens camera ( 15m IR night vision)

2)      1/3″ CCD & 6mm lens camera ( 20m IR night vision)

3)      1/3″ CCD & 8mm lens camera ( 25m-30m IR night vision)

4)      1/3″ CCD & 12mm lens camera ( 40m-60m IR night vision)

5)      1/3″ CCD & 25mm lens camera ( 100m-120m IR night vision)

3. How much the viewing angle?

Most video surveillance cameras are installed in one location permanently. For this case, fixed-focus lenses are the most cost-effective. If you want to be able to move your camera, variable focus lenses are adjustable, letting you change your field of view when you adjust the camera. If you want to be able to move the camera remotely, you’ll need a pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) camera. On the other side, the price is much higher than the standard ones.

4.How much details of the camera image?

Of cos, the resolutions of the cameras are very important too. Generally speaking, 380TVL is low-end, 420TVL/480TVL is good for security work, 540TVL is very high quality. If you’re going to want to see detail, upgrading to a higher resolution is a good choice.

For Digital Video Recorder:

1. How many locations do you want to watch?

This also helps you to decide how many cameras and what kind of cameras will you choose. There are usually 4 channel, 8 channel, 16 channel, and 32 channel.

2. Does remote access need or just for local monitoring?

The MPEG4 & H.264 are the two mainly popular video compression formats for digital video recorders. However, you need to make clear the difference of these two formats: MPEG4 (good for local storage) V.S. H.264 (Network transmission, remote access needed). However, personally, I recommend on H.264, which is widely used with remote access control.

3. How long do you need to save your recordings for?

500GB and 1 TB are hard drives are usually installed in the DVRs. Generally speaking, 500GB HDD is enough for your home and small business for more than 30 days at H.264 compression of 4 channel.
