Modern home security systems are made up of many components, some of which are essential to any household. Video cameras, fire alarms and burglar alarm systems can all be categorized. Click for source!
There are many types of video cameras. Older systems use CCTV cameras (Closed Circuit Television). The cameras can be strategically located at key points around your home. With the right equipment, you can view the live video on either a TV or specialized monitor. The cameras can be wireless or wired and they are often accompanied by digital video recorders (DVRs) which store the recordings on hard drives, memory cards or the internet. Securitykart also offers hybrid DVRs that record video from different types of cameras, and can also stream the feed via the internet. Today, IP cameras are replacing CCTV. Digital video cameras are connected via Wi-Fi and Ethernet to computers, the Internet, or both. You can access the live video from any web browser in the world. Many cameras have microphones, speakers and rotating capabilities that you can control from the Internet. The cameras can send users alerts and act as motion sensors. When buying a video camera, the most important thing to look at is its field of vision (the wider it can be), their night-vision capabilities, video quality, and any zooming/rotating abilities. Securitykart offers a wide range of options from reputable brands like Dahua Panasonic and CP PLUS.
The next important security measure after video surveillance is an alarm system. The system can include components like PIRs (Passive Infrared sensors), also known as motion detectors. It may also contain smoke detectors and glass breaking sensors. When the motion sensor detects any movement within its view, it will activate. Door and Window sensor activates if two parts on each side of the window/door are even slightly separated. Glass-break sensors are activated when the glass breaks. The smoke detector can alert you in the event of an arson attack or cigarette smoking. Hootering and using strobe lights serves two purposes: they alert the house owners and neighbors, and scare away intruders. These sensors can either be deactivated or activated from the main panel, or by remote control. It is possible to connect the main panel with a service provider who can send immediate help in the event of an alarm being set off. Godrej Eagle I pro comes highly recommended.
