Surveillance Video Quality

Technology

The Most Serious Problem in the Video Surveillance Industry

Poor surveillance video quality costs security organisations millions of dollars and thousands of staff hours each year.

  • Incidents usually happen away from the cameras. Cameras are fixed where people expect something to happen.
  • Video storage capacity is limited because too much useless video information is recorded.
  • The video surveillance deterrent effect is nothing like it was before everyone knew of these serious problems.

Each year, security organisations throughout the world waste millions of dollars. They also lose thousands of staff hours. Teams search days or months of video for a few vital seconds. Most of that work ends in a report. The report explains why the evidence was missing or could not be used. Usually the incident was too far from a working camera. Or the camera was pointing the wrong way.

The Solution to Surveillance Video Quality

Surveillance Video Quality

This video compares the alternatives. Monitored and standalone systems both suffer from poor surveillance video quality. Video analytics, operator decisions and court evidence all need the same thing. The camera must capture close-up images of the incident. This is only achieved using the Viseum IMC, or other types of camera under the following conditions:

Fixed Direction Cameras: Use these standalone or monitored in narrow places on a remote site. They suit high numbers of people or vehicles.

PTZ Cameras: Use these only in low threat areas. They work only when an operator controls them at all times.

Lower cost, better results

Viseum will deliver better results automatically, costing far less to buy. Running costs are at least 6 times lower each year.
