  1. Biometric CCTV market forecast to soar up to $3.2 billion in 2016

    Comments Off on Biometric CCTV market forecast to soar up to $3.2 billion in 2016

    The worldwide market for biometric CCTV systems is set to reach $3.2 billion by 2016, with an annual growth rate of 33 percent, a recent report by analysts from the Homeland Security Research Corporation (HSRC) was able to reveal.

    The security camera industry has already seen rapid growth as the private and public sector have installed surveillance systems to help combat crime and provide real-time information. Nevertheless, researchers project that over the next decade the next trend in this field will be the increasing integration of biometric technology into surveillance cameras.

    Using automated biometric systems can help reduce costs and offer enhanced intelligence with automated features like biometric facial recognition capabilities and behavior detection.

    HSRC’s report projects that these technological developments will help drive the CCTV market and create significant growth opportunities for the security camera industry, biometric and IT systems manufacturers, and security systems integrators.

    A local council has revealed plans to install 11 new CCTV camera systems around local bus stops in a bid to improve passengers’ safety and reduce incidents of vandalism.

    Stoke-on-Trent City Council will use cash from the Department of Transport’s Local Sustainable Transport Fund to pay for the cameras, which will cost around £3,000 each. The cameras will be placed at stops along the Hanley to Keele bus route.

    Councillor Ruth Rosenau, cabinet member for transport, said the cameras would help improve safety for passengers.

    She added: “Safety is our number one priority and we are installing CCTV cameras at 11 bus stops, between Keele University and the city centre.

    “This will compliment the wifi and real-time passenger information that we will be providing on this route.”

    According to Staffordshire Police there are no particular issues with crime or anti-social behaviour at bus stops along the Hanley-to-Keele route. However, the force said it welcomed any community projects which help residents feel safe.

    A local authority has decided to assist financially to maintain the CCTV surveillance in the town, a recent news report in the local media was able to reveal.

    Colwyn Bay Town Council has agreed to contribute nearly £9,000 a year to the £32,000 a year it costs to maintain the cameras.

    Colwyn Bay town centre has 22 cameras, which recorded 1,324 incidents last year, and each of the cameras costs £4,483 a year to operate. This assistance is part of Conwy Council’s measure to reduce costs across the region, and they stated that they are looking for additional areas of generating money to cover the cost of the CCTV maintenance.

    They have recently begun charging North Wales Police for DVDs of incidents in the area, which costs the force £50 for each individual incident.

  8. Underwater CCTV cameras to be installed in Moray swimming pools

    Comments Off on Underwater CCTV cameras to be installed in Moray swimming pools

    Swimming pools in Moray are set to be fitted with underwater CCTV surveillance cameras as part of the local council’s initiative to improve safety and cut costs, a recent news report in the local media was able to reveal.

    Moray Council pointed out that the move would improve safety for people using its pools and also save money at the same time.

    The cameras are designed to send high resolution images to a bank of screens at the poolside where they will be monitored by lifeguards. The devices will allow them to keep an eye on underwater activity, even at the bottom of the pools.

    However, the cameras will only record the footage in real time and no images will be stored.

    The scheme will cost the council about £45,000 to launch, but, on the long-term, it’s expected to save the local authority about £23,000 annually in staff costs as they will reduce the number of relief lifeguards needed at the three pools during busy periods.

    As expected, the decision to use the technology has raised questions over the personal privacy of swimmers, a civil liberties group claiming that some swimmers could feel uncomfortable knowing they had cameras trained on them.

    A mobile surveillance camera was installed in a busy shopping area in Wishaw, North Lanarkshire, Scotland, in an attempt to reduce antisocial behaviour and youth disorder, a recent news report on the matter was able to reveal.

    The mobile camera installed by Police Scotland is meant to play a double role in the anti-social activity hotspot – catch culprits and also deter others from engaging in such activities.

    Inspector Alistair Anderson, of Wishaw Police Office, said: “Over the past couple on months we have received a high volume of reports of youth related disorder and anti social behaviour in and around the Tiree Crescent area.

    “The siting of this camera will provide invaluable support to the police in combating this type of behaviour and will also act as an effective tool in helping to provide residents with an improved quality of life in their neighbourhood.”

  10. Civilians could help run CCTV surveillance system in Nottinghamshire

    Comments Off on Civilians could help run CCTV surveillance system in Nottinghamshire

    A police force plans to enrol civilians for reviewing CCTV footage and taking statements in a bid to balance its books, a news report in the local media was able to reveal.

    Under the latest government austerity measures, Nottinghamshire Police will have to save around £13m in the next financial year and a predicted £30m plus over the next few years. This leaves the force with few options in terms of CCTV monitoring, one of them being the recruitment of civilians for footage reviewing purposes.

    Other provisions include the possibility to work more with emergency services and other organisations. Certain underused stations will have to be closed and the way in which members of public contact the police force is also likely to change.

    Careful planning and budgeting is essential for public authorities in this day and age. This is exactly the reason why CCTV Surveillance specializes in developing and implementing video surveillance systems that adhere to the highest security standards, while also delivering very good value for money.

    The CCTV software enables “live” footage to be viewed remotely from any or all connected CCTV cameras as events happen and without degradation of video quality, allowing you to monitor your premises when offsite.
