Control of your property starts with what that control looks like. Needed are high quality recordings of what happens on your property, plentiful storage for those recordings and an easy and fast way to search for events either on location or remotely on your Android or IOS device. High quality recordings start with 4K Ultra High Definition and advanced imaging technology like Starlight™. You should be able to identify a person at the end of your driveway, not just right in front of your door. To maximise video storage, recording should only take place when sufficient motion is detected. You should also be able to prevent motion that is not of concern from triggering recording. For example, a tree whose leaves move in the wind should be able to be blocked from triggering recording. Video compression (H264), where the entire picture is only recorded once a second and only changes in the picture are recorded multiple times a second further reduces the amount of storage required. By reducing unnecessary recording, your search for events will also go faster. Local storage of recordings with battery backup will ensure continued recording in the event of a power or internet outage. Cloud storage is unreliable and expensive. With us, there are no ongoing monthly expenses aside from the small amount of power required to run the cameras and recorder. Video clips should be easily backed up and shared in common file formats like MP4. Manuals should be easily followed by anyone without a technical background. That’s why we write our own manuals. Gimmicky, software driven features promoted by mass market security camera vendors are a distraction from inadequate hardware. Quality hardware is more expensive to produce. Once developed, frivolous software can be duplicated at virtually no cost.
