Development and Application of Video Surveillance Technology

From a single industry to multiple fields

In the past, the application of video surveillance technology was mainly concentrated in government departments and special departments and industries such as finance, public security, transportation and electric power. Among them, government departments and financial industry account for 20.9% and 20.6% of the market respectively. However, with the progress of social informatization, the demand for video surveillance in more and more industries and fields has greatly increased, and video surveillance technology has begun to extend from individual fields such as banking and transportation to many fields, from traditional security monitoring to management monitoring and production and operation monitoring.

In addition, the situation that video surveillance technology is only used in the enterprise industry has been gradually broken, and public homes have also become a new market for video surveillance applications. In the public home market, video surveillance is mainly used for residential safety and property monitoring.

From local monitoring to inter-provincial and inter-regional monitoring

The demand market for video surveillance is constantly expanding. In addition to traditional industries, enterprise and personal markets are also emerging. The most active small and medium-sized enterprises and individual users in China have obvious application prospects for video surveillance technology. At the same time, users' requirements are getting higher and higher, the most prominent of which is to realize the real-time, geographical-free and unimpeded transmission of a large number of video data, so as to realize the enjoyment of resources and provide convenient, fast and effective services for managers and decision makers at all levels.

Especially for some large group companies, these enterprises are all across provinces and regions, with branches all over the country, and the activities between branches are also very frequent. If people from all over the country travel back and forth, it will obviously reduce work efficiency, waste enterprise resources and increase operating costs. Through video surveillance, we can grasp the company's situation in a timely and intuitive way in different places, so these customers urgently need a video surveillance system connecting the whole province or even the whole country. It can be predicted that it will be an important trend for the future development of video surveillance technology to break through the restrictions of local networks and realize intra-provincial or inter-provincial networking.

From providing access to system integration

When building a video surveillance system, enterprises only provide users with network channels and cannot participate in terminal procurement, software installation and operation and maintenance. In this mode, users need to buy their own video terminal equipment, build their own information management software system, and entrust a third party to maintain the system and lines, which not only increases the difficulty for users to use services, but also greatly reduces the effectiveness of the video surveillance system.

To this end, experts pointed out that enterprises should become experts in information technology. When developing video surveillance services, they should use broadband networks to connect scattered and independent image acquisition points to achieve unified monitoring, unified storage and unified management across regions and around the world, and integrate and utilize industry resources. We should not only provide channels, but also integrate systems. We should provide integrated services from hardware to software, from construction to maintenance.
