Hybrid
This is a follow up to my previous posting.
In order to integrate analog cameras with IP network camera, network video server is an option and the other option is to deploy a hybrid surveillance system.
A hybrid NDVR system comes with analog composite video supporting DVR and digital network camera supporting NVR software.
Both network video server and NDVR provide surveillance users the flexibility to tailer made a most cost effective and efficient integrated cctv solution, which capitalizes on the advantages of both the analog and digital network surveillance gears.
Like this pair of shoes, hybrid gives you the best of two worlds.

17 Again
"Everyone deserves a second chance" - Terminator Salvation (2009)
A factory owner came to see us the other day. He said he has a 8 years old 4 channel CCTV system at his factory which had cost him more than RM10K, it is still in perfect working condition but it does not has network remote monitoring capability.
After a 2 hours discussion, we had come to the conclusion that the best solution is to convert and to integrate the 4 existing high quality analog cameras into a new 12 channel IP based surveillance solution with the help of network video servers.
Network IP video servers provide a reliable transition from analog CCTV to IP-Based Surveillance. A video servers receive composite video data from the existing analog camera, encode it, securely encrypted and feed the signal into a Local Area Network or Wide Area Network for both monitoring and recording.
With video server, upgrading and migrating from an existing analog surveillance system to an IP-based digital system made easy and cost effective. In other words video server manage to revitalize an old analog surveillance system, like Matthew Perry (47) turned Zac Efron (17) in the movie 17 again so to speak.

St Maarten Airport
I wonder how to design a surveillance system for an airport which is next to a public beach.
If it was difficult to design a surveillance system for this awesome airport, it is more difficult to land a plane on this spectacular airstrip.

Size does Matter
This is a follow up to my yesterday posting. From those who would like to deploy small and discreet outdoor camera, please think again.
CCTV can only be your talisman to ward off criminals if the camera is noticeable and BIG.

Easy Target
A prospect came to see us and he wanted us to help him to deploy a cctv system at his house on that evening itself. He said he is willing to pay a bit extra and if we could not put up the system on that night he would bring his business elsewhere. Though it was a simple job as he required a 4 cameras system, 3 outdoor IR cameras and 1 indoor dome camera but our technicians are occupied that day.
I asked him why is he in such a hurry. He said his house was burglered twice within a month's time and that morning he drove around his neighborhood, his son pointed out to him that many houses especially most of their neighboring houses had CCTV no wonder the burglars pick their house.
Did we help the gentleman to put up the system that day? No, we sold him 2 dummy cameras that day and help him to put up a proper system the following day.
After we had put up the CCTV system, it is again fair and equal.

Insider Job
Do you know most business crime are committed by someone you know?
Store shrinkage, white collar crime like identity and information theft were the biggest cost to employers after payroll and medical care. Study shows that both the physical goods and valuable information were largely pilfered by the company own employee.
