Wireless Camera as a tool for Security and Surveillance

A wireless camera can acquire images or video and transmit them to a TV orPC monitor

without having a wired connection with the display device.This is realized by transmitting image/video information through radio signals. Wireless cameras are, therefore, very easy to use whenthe positioning of cables is not practical or even impossible. Wirelesscameras normally require a mains power source, however, battery operated cameras are also available, though the batteries necessiate recharging in a couple of hours. Use of batteries enables the camera totally wireless, but understandably, it is not a way out if a property or an asset needs monitoring for long periods of time.

Wireless cameras are frequently used for surveillance and asset-monitoring. Some wireless cameras are designed to work with personal computers(PCs), so that video or images can be viewed on PC monitor, whilesaving the video or images on the hard-disk at the same time. Anotherbreed of wireless cameras uses internet protocol (IP). These cameras can be usually put together as internet servers and the images or video captured by these cameras can be monitored anywhere in the world using aninternet connection.

A wireless camera is an excellent choice for video surveillance. This type of camera is appropriate for both business and home. A wireless camera in use in UK/Europe at 2.4 GHz. can normally provide coverage up to a span of 100 meters. It is recommended to check the laws of your state or country before operating a wireless camera for surveillance. A wireless camera for surveillance may be employed as long as it is used ina place in which individuals could have no expectation of privacy. Such places may include a public sidewalk or the inside of a retail store. However, legal issues may arise in other scenarios. Some individuals may like to use wireless cameras to keep tabs on their babysitters or day-care providers. In such circumstances, wireless cameras are hidden from view or camouflaged, making them practically impossible to detect. It is not improbable that recording video or images clandestinely in these settings may not be of significance at all, because you would be defying the law. Therefore, it is important to check your local laws before employing a wireless camera for such an intent. Although, not very dissimilar from the wired (USB connected) webcams, wireless cameras are also common as webcams. Using this technique, a building, for example, can be monitored from four sides and the images or video can be sent to a far-off location via Internet. Similarly, an official meeting of employees or groups in the same premises or in different cities can be managed, recorded and relayed to the main office at the same time. Many individuals use wireless cameras to connect with relatives and friends, chat over the Internet, and even indulge in the online dating scene.
