Latest Technology in Wifi Network Cameras | Trends, Business Growth, Leading Players
An Internet Protocol camera, or IP camera,
is a type of digital video camera that receives control data and
sends image data via an IP network. They are commonly used for surveillance but
unlike analog closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras, they require
no local recording device, only a local area network. Most IP cameras
are webcams, but the term IP camera or netcam usually
applies only to those that can be directly accessed over a network connection,
usually used for surveillance.
Some IP cameras require support of a central network video
recorder (NVR) to handle the recording, video and alarm management. Others
are able to operate in a decentralized manner with no NVR needed, as the camera
is able to record directly to any local or remote storage media.
One of the most popular abilities that Wi-Fi home security cameras have is to view their camera footage via a mobile app or other application software. Many cameras offer features such as a wide-angle lens (around 140 degrees, or pan/tilt up to 350 degrees horizontal, 90 degrees vertical), low-light or night vision, and motion detection. When an event occurs, such as detected motion, users can receive alarms and notifications via an app. Video clips can be stored in a local device such as a micro-SD or through a cloud service.
