Questions

Why IP Video Surveillance?

• Centralized ownership of the complete video surveillance system

• Remote accessibility• Easy, future-proof integration• Scalability and flexibility• Cost-effectiveness• No external power required

IP Video Technical Benefits

• Higher resolution• Higher frame rate• Progressive scan• No image degeneration• Integrated audio• Power over Ethernet• Wireless

IP Cameras and Network Servers

Common functions• Connect directly to Ethernet

networks• Have their own IP address• Include a web server, PC

independent• HTML user interface, ordinary

web browser

11 Reasons to Choose IP over analog

11 of the most importantfunctional differences

between analogand network cameras

End to interlace problems

1

8 Progressive scan8 Entire image captured at one time8 Crystal clear images even with a high

degree of motion in the scene

1. End to interlace problems

Interlaced scan

Each image formed from two interlace fields

Blurriness from capturing moving objects, even when connected to a DVR

BENEFITS• Superior image quality • Full image details• Precise, accurate information

Power over Ethernet increases savings and

reliability

2

8 IEEE802.3af8 Industry standard8 No need for power outlet at camera location

BENEFITS• Cost savings • Reliability with centralized power backup• Simple installation

2. Power over Ethernet

Not available

Both network cameras with and without built-in support for PoE can take advantage of a UPS device

2. Power over Ethernet

Megapixel resolution 3

8 Many resolutions8 1 Megapixel is 10x the resolution of CIF,

2 Megapixel is 20x!8 Different aspect ratios8 Digital PTZ

8 Stuck with NTSC/PAL resolution8 0.4 Megapixel at 4CIF and 0.1 at CIF8 Limited image details

BENEFITS• More details, easy identification • Digital PTZ, higher reliability and

simultaneous pan/tilt

Integrated PTZ input/output control

5

8 PTZ control over the same network that transports the video

8 PTZ commands sent over the IP network8 Integrated I/O can

• Trigger anything• Can be triggered by anything

8 Cabling separate from the video signal8 Costly and cumbersome

BENEFITS• Less cabling, cost savings,

increased functionality and integration potential

5. Integrated PTZ and I/O control

5. Integrated PTZ and I/O control

Example: Typical I/O use – Integration with alarm

Integrated audio 6

8 Audio captured at the camera8 Synchronized with the video8 Can be integrated into the same video

stream8 2-way audio

(Duplex, Half Duplex, Simplex)

6. Integrated audio

8 Only possible with separate audio lines to the DVR

BENEFITS• Many possibilities: Simplex,

half duplex, full duplex• Synchronized audio and video• Easy to install• Cost savings

6. Integrated audio

Entrance control- Remote dialogue and

gate/door control

Listen in on remote sounds- Audio surveillance

Provide audio feedback to surveillance scenes

Example: Communicate and open a door remotely

(Wired/Wireless)

Secure communication

7

8 Video encryption8 Authentication using encrypted

certificates8 Authorization: to verify and approve the

identity of the device8 Privacy

7. Secure communication

8 No encryption8 No authentication8 Anyone can tap into the video or replace the

signal from a camera with another video signal

BENEFITS• Secure image capture• Secure transmission• Evidence trail secured

7. Secure communication

Examples of achieving privacy- VPN- SSL/TLS (HTTPS)

Flexible, cost-effective infrastructure choices

8

8 IP = established, standardized, interoperable8 Digital images = no quality reduction8 Many streams transmitted over the same line8 A single network wire = hundreds of

simultaneous full frame rate video streams

8. Flexible, cost-effective infrastructure

8 Expensive coax, proprietary fiber, wireless8 Distance affects image quality8 Adding power, I/O and audio further

complicates this situation

BENEFITS• Image quality, flexibility, scalability,

future-proof• Resulting costs comparatively low

True digital solution 9

8 Images digitized once8 Stay digital8 No unnecessary conversions8 No image degradation

9. True digital solution

8 With every conversion image quality is lost:• Analog signal digitized in camera’s DSP• Digital signal converted back to analog for transport over coax• Signal once again digitized at the DVR for recording

BENEFITS• Superior image quality

9. True digital solution

Video Analytics 10

10. Video Analytics

8 What is Video Analytics?• Converting video into data• Reducing the need for human monitoring

8 Applications• Tailgating• Grouping/Crowd Detection• Loitering• Suspicious objects• Entering prohibited doors

8 Benefits• Issue alerts to guards• Monitor thousands of cameras

Lower total cost of ownership

10. Lower total cost of ownership

Analog Solution8 DVRs have limited number of inputs8 More cameras required8 Higher installation costs

>

> IP Solution8 Infrastructure leveraged8 Scalable and future proof8 Fewer cameras required

IP Video Surveillance Conclusion

The future belongs to network cameras
