Why Use Closed Circuit TV at Home?

by Cameron Martin Security Camera Installation

Completely monitor what happens inside and outside the home. For those looking for ample protection and prevention of dangerous situations, especially in areas outside the home, using a closed circuit TV (CCTV) is the solution.

 

Monitoring cameras are equipment that are already in great demand to increase residential Security camera installation. These devices are robust, can integrate internal and external areas in the same system and allow the visualization and recording of images in practically any situation.

 

In the article, we will talk more about the uses and advantages of using CCTV in wing. Know how it works and then evaluate if this option fits what you are looking for.

 

 

Closed-circuit TV expands monitoring and helps prevent dangerous situations

 

When using closed circuit TV you will have a wider monitoring, with high resolution images – even in night situations – and have robust equipment to resist impacts and rain, dust and intense heat. That's because a CCTV system integrates internal and external cameras, which can be of different models, image recorders and can be controlled by applications and software that allow you to be aware of everything that happens in the environment, all the time.

 

Thus, we can list some important functions for CCTV for use in homes. They are: preventing dangerous situations by viewing internal and external areas through cell phone applications, triggering cameras through sensors and opening the external gate without leaving the car through automation devices that can be activated from inside the vehicle; and archive images longer when using a recorder (DVR) with greater storage capacity. Let's talk more about each of these use cases.

 

Prevent dangerous situations

 

It is the possibility of knowing what is happening in the surroundings of the house even before being there. For example, by installing a CCTV camera near the main entrance or garage door, you will have a good viewing area to know who is walking around before you arrive on foot or by car. All done through the mobile app, where it is possible to access the images remotely.

 

This is an extremely important feature, since, according to the NEW FORCE monitoring center, the periods of greatest risk of breaking into homes and assaults on residents are between 07:00 and 09:00 and 18:00 to 20:00. At these times, properties are more vulnerable due to the routine of arrival and departure of residents. In periods like this, it is necessary to redouble the attention and observe the street of the house to check if there is any suspicious action in the surroundings.

 

Activate cameras by sensors and open the external gate without leaving the car

 

With this type of monitoring system, there is also the possibility of increasing surveillance by integrating presence sensors that allow triggering the cameras as soon as there is movement in the place. Or not follow the prevention of dangerous situations, and open the external gate, while still inside the car. Thus, the device, when receiving a communication, such as from the lighting sensors or even from the car's headlights, activates cameras or opens doors and gates remotely, among other types of functions.

 

 Archive images longer

 

Another differential of CCTV image recorders is the storage capacity for a longer time. DVRs allow you to archive for many days what was captured by the indoor and outdoor cameras. For example, if you need to travel on vacation for a week, you can follow everything that happened at home during your absence, including by cell phone. Therefore, it is important to invest in a hard disk specially developed for use in CCTV equipment because, in addition to robust storage, these HDs offer better performance by avoiding recording crashes.

 

Now that you know well how a complete closed-circuit TV works, in addition to the advantages that CCTV presents for those who want to increase security, you can choose the one that best suits your case.
