Study Notes
Camera Types
- Analog Cameras: Use analog signals to transmit video, limited to 4-6 cameras per system, lower resolution (CIF or 4CIF)
- IP Cameras: Use internet protocol to transmit video, higher resolution (720p, 1080p, or 4K), can be connected to a network
- HD Cameras: High-definition cameras with higher resolution (720p, 1080p, or 4K), can be analog or IP
- Infrared Cameras: Use LEDs to provide night vision, can be analog or IP
- PTZ Cameras: Pan-Tilt-Zoom cameras, can be controlled remotely to move and zoom
Security Systems
- Centralized Systems: All cameras connected to a central control room or monitoring station
- Decentralized Systems: Cameras connected to individual recording devices or servers
- Hybrid Systems: Combination of centralized and decentralized systems
- Cloud-based Systems: Cameras connected to cloud storage for video recording and remote access
Image Quality
- Resolution: Measures the number of pixels in an image, higher resolution means clearer image
- Frame Rate: Measures the number of frames per second, higher frame rate means smoother video
- Field of View: Measures the angle of view, wider field of view means more area covered
- Low-Light Sensitivity: Measures the camera's ability to capture images in low-light conditions
- Compression: Reduces the file size of video recordings, common formats include H.264 and H.265
