Most video surveillance systems are ineffective because they simply save files in the archive. The result is millions of video recordings that no one can see. Recently, artificial intelligence software significantly reduces the time spent on video analysis and makes VMS much more efficient.

video surveillance with artificial intelligence.
The software installed on computer makes possible to save recordings from cameras, view them and connect to the surveillance system remotely. The connection diagram is as follows: the recorder is connected to a router, and via WiFi you can watch videos using a smartphone, iphone, tablet or other gadget with an installed application for remote access. Thus, homeowners have the opportunity to watch what is happening at home via the Internet, while on vacation, from almost anywhere in the world where there is access to the network. Many people are interested in the questions: what size should a hard drive be and how long should it take to store recordings from cameras? Its cost depends on the amount of disk space. It is advisable to select such a volume so that the information is stored for at least 2-3 weeks. This time is quite enough to review the video, deal with the troubles and delete the data. In addition, there is a way to significantly increase the storage time of video recordings by configuring cameras to react to movements.
Equipping cameras with motion sensors and special software on a computer (recorder) make it possible to launch devices at certain moments. If nothing happens in the house or on the territory, then the shooting is not carried out. As a result, the homeowner gets a "cut" of events, which, moreover, is much more convenient to view. The quality of the Internet is improving every year. Modern channels for data transmission make it possible to record a video signal directly to the Internet and save the recordings on an external server - "in the cloud". That is, you can do without a home DVR. But remember that you will have to pay for data storage on the Internet. In addition, in case of problems with the Internet, records will not be saved. If there is a short-term disconnection of the Internet, the camera will be able to save the data to a flash drive, and after the network is working, transfer it to the server. If the Internet is gone for a long time, there is a possibility that important data will simply be lost.
