What is a video monitoring solution? Think of it like a traditional security alarm service, but with live video that monitors sensitive areas 24/7.
As compared to traditional video monitoring services that require a person to be physically sitting and watching a screen – or sometimes many screens – a modern video monitoring solution can be set so automatic alerts are sent via mobile app or email, notifying administrators or security personnel, when an event occurs.
There are a wide variety of locations and use cases that can benefit from a modern video monitoring solution. Consider, for example, residential communities, such as apartment complexes with multiple public spaces. There are so many different areas of a community that might require video security, including mailbox rooms, pools areas, a club house, fitness and business centres.
To ensure these areas are safe and particularly during after hours – a user of Dahua Technology’s smart video monitoring solution would simply need to enable perimeter protection and would get notified, when an event is triggered.
Commercial buildings, of course, also have multiple areas of concern, including lobby areas and parking lots that need 24/7 monitoring, along with points of entry and exit. Dahua’s systems automatically send alerts, when events happen, so there is no need to hire physical patrols, in order to monitor the premises on a regular basis. This is a huge cost-savings benefit and can improve the atmosphere of a public space as well.
Dahua solutions also offer the benefit of two-way audio, so someone monitoring the system for alerts – wherever they may be – can speak and hear the person they see on camera, to assess and if necessary deter suspicious activity. Most importantly, Dahua Technology’s advanced analytics assure that false alarms are minimised.
