Y-cam Bullet Description

If you’re in need of a high-quality wireless camera, and want to utilize the power of the internet to easily access video footage, consider purchasing the Y-Cam Bullet.

Full of Features

The Y-Cam Bullet camera is easy to install and operate, able to work totally wirelessly from a computer. The camera shoots in full color, and has infra-red capabilities for night-time shooting.

The Y-Cam Bullet allows you to download video from any internet-connected device in the world. If you need to check on things in the office while you’re in another state, you can log into any internet café, or even your mobile phone to view live streaming video feeds. Virtually any mobile phone with video capabilities and a decent internet connection will be able to work with this camera.

High Quality Recording and Playback

Most importantly, the quality of the Y-Cam image is very high. At 30 frames per second with a resolution of 640×480, you’ll get a consistent detailed image of the places you need to monitor.

Some available cameras will save video footage with outdated compression algorithms. This means that if you’re looking to save large amounts of footage, you’ll quickly run out of hard-drive space.

It’s possible to connect the camera to the internet with either the supplied network cable, or commonly used Wi-Fi internet. Although the data will be sent through the internet, you can rest assured all footage will be secure, as it’s guarded by WEP, WPA and WPA2 encryption methods.

The Y-Cam is fully weather-proof. It’s resistant to rain or water damage, and all cables are shielding from the natural elements.

With so many features, high-quality image and sound, and completely secure wireless recording, the Y-Cam Bullet is a camera that’s worth considering if you take security seriously.

IVS can be implemented either into analog CCTV systems or IP camera devices. Depending on your specific situation, IP cameras can be programmed to fulfill the exact needs or your home, office or property.

Let’s use an example. Say you’re in charge of security for a large train station. Your cameras can be programmed to monitor when people step too close to the edge of a platform while passengers are not meant to be getting on trains. Security staff can then be alerted instantly of this occurring, or a response warning those who caused the breach can be sounded out along the platform. As the specific video image is recorded and monitored by the IVS, it’s possible to implement software that automatically protects your clientele, staff and assets automatically to a degree never before imagined.

Other examples could include a specific customer loitering in a store for an unwarranted period of time, unusual car activity in the car-park of your business or bodily interaction that indicates the presence of physical violence. Audio capabilities can also be engaged and monitored, where if sound levels reach unusual levels, security personnel can be notified and protective measures put in place.

Another feature of IVS is that of motion detection and the tracking of objects. Let’s say, for example, you’re recording a car park at night that shouldn’t have any movement. The cameras can be on at all times while not recording useless data of an empty car park, and only be engaged when movement does occur. This movement can then be monitored automatically, with cameras being able to pan, zoom and tilt to keep a constant, ever-watchful eye on whatever is causing the movement in the frame. Such capabilities were previously only available with an actual human present to perform them, and it’s an unreasonable notion to assume any human could keep such a consistent eye on all cameras, twenty-four seven.

This notification can be made through email and SMS, and it’s not necessary that any human be present at the location in order to watch the footage being recorded. Through video servers, authorized personnel will be able to view live or previously recorded footage from a remote location anywhere in the world.

IVS systems can also be surprisingly cost effective and easy to install. Since the features of IVS come from computer software rather than internet cameras themselves, there won’t be a need to make many changes to the current maintenance and lay-out of your current camera set-up.

IVS is without doubt the cutting edge of security technology. Combined with well placed, well protected IP camera surveillance cameras, your protection has never before had such a watchful eye over it. While many of the technological advances of today could be seen as frivolous or unnecessary, Intelligent Video Servers have created a functional, tangible difference to the way to protect you, your staff or your family against danger.

How Can Internet Cameras Help Gas Stations?

There are two major reasons why at least some sort of video camera device should be installed in a gas station. One is that with the presents of cameras in a room, would-be criminals will be less likely to do so much as sneak a chocolate bar into their pocket, let alone use a gun to hold the place up. The other is that if a crime does take place, the recorded footage can be used to identify and apprehend the perpetrator of the crime.

How Are Internet Cameras Superior to Old Technology?

Internet cameras record data to a hard disk drive, this means all the technological advances made in digital media can be taken advantage of. Image quality can mean the difference between a perpetrator being easily identified or just a blurry image.

Internet cameras also cost a lot less to install, operate and maintain. Since the devices can be completely wireless, they can be easily set up in a position and maintained without hiring extra people to set the system up. Additionally, if the position of the camera needs to be altered, this is a far more simple operation that it would be with a CCTV camera, for example. Y-Cam, a leading manufacturer of Internet cameras, offers affordable solutions for gas station monitoring.

Camera Placement Tips

It’s extremely important to carefully consider the placement of your internet cameras before installing them. While it’s probably impossible to cover every nook and cranny of the gas station, understanding a few key ideas will ensure you maximize the level of safety for customers and staff.

It’s most important to remember that the purpose of these cameras is to identify peoples faces and vehicle license place, so ensure you have outside cameras placed in such a way that any car will be easily identified on entering the premises. Also place cameras at every exit and entrance of the store, making sure that any person entering will have their face readily identifiable.

You could also consider using dome cameras outside, as this will help to capture a wider view of the entire outdoor area. Dome cameras allow a three hundred and sixty degree view, as the camera can perform an entire circular revolution, covering a large area.

The technology of internet cameras represents a great leap forward in security and customer safety. If you’re thinking of upgrading your security system, internet cameras are the logical choice. Learn the features of your devices, and how you can take advantage of them to best protect your store. Check out the Y-Cam camera product line for affordable surveillance solutions.
