INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS

Friday, October 8th, 2010

The incorporation of computer intelligence and network connectivity into devices and systems—the basic convergence influence—allows systems to be of greater and greater real-time benefit to the systems users. The widespread deployment of personal computers and networks has resolved, for all practical purposes, the connectivity barrier. Driven by relentless customer demand for improved systems, a number… Read more >>

CCD TECHNOLOGY

Thursday, September 23rd, 2010

WHAT IS CCD?? A charge coupled device (CCD) camera is an apparatus which is designed to convert optical brightness into electrical amplitude signals using a plurality of CCDs, and then reproduce the image of a subject using the electric signals without time restriction. Charge coupled devices or CCDs are arrays of semiconductor gates formed on… Read more >>

Wednesday, September 22nd, 2010

There are 2 broad categories of video formats. Some formats are meant for your finalized video and are called sharing formats. Other formats are used more in the beginning stages of a video project. They are good as raw video master clips. These formats will have higher resolution and larger file sizes than the sharing… Read more >>

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN IP AND CCTV CAMERAS

Wednesday, September 15th, 2010

When selecting a video surveillance system, we all need finest picture quality with huge storage in exchange of our money. There are following ten points which should be taken into account while selecting any 20th century CCTV cameras:  1. End Your Interlace Issues: Once you move to some Multilevel IP camera, you receive rid with… Read more >>

IDENTIFICATION TECHNOLOGY

Tuesday, September 7th, 2010

  A smart card reader is an electronic device that reads smart cards. Access control card readers are used in physical security systems to read a credential that allows access through access control points, typically a locked door. An access control reader can be a magnetic stripe reader, a bar code reader, a proximity reader,… Read more >>

COMPRESSION & DATA MANAGEMENT

Tuesday, September 7th, 2010

Compression and Data Management: As because megapixel cameras resolve so much detail, bandwidth usage and video storage can quickly become an issue. Both are dependant on the compression format used in the camera (Motion JPEG or MPEG-4 are two of the most common) and the frame rate at which the video is transmitted. Without going… Read more >>

MEGAPIXEL CAMERAS

Tuesday, September 7th, 2010

Megapixel Cameras  The improved clarity provided by megapixel cameras was first applied to broadcast applications when television stations started migrating from NTSC to HD (high definition). Poorly constructed sets and props such as fake bookcases with painted-in books didn’t cut it when shot with high-resolution HD cameras. In the video surveillance arena, the clarity and… Read more >>

READER TO CONTROLLER INTERFACE

Thursday, August 5th, 2010

The Wiegand Reader-to-Controller Interface: An interface defines how two devices communicate with one another. Various readers can communicate with access control panels using a variety of well-established, industry-standard interfaces including: • Wiegand • Serial (RS232, RS422, RS485) • Clock-and-Data (Magnetic Stripe Track/2) – Also known as ABA format. We will concentrate on the Wiegand interface… Read more >>
