Network Camera Systems

Network camera systems offer a wide range of complexity and scalability, ranging from a standalone single-camera system to an enterprise integrated global network camera system with thousands of cameras. The system can be fully integrated with other software and can be monitored on-site, remotely, or outsourced to a third party. Integration with other building facilities control systems is becoming a reality as facilities are also in the process of upgrading building automation and energy management systems. Utilizing shared communication and sensor infrastructure necessitates the need for communication between systems.

Growth in crime incidents coupled with higher demand for security levels has led to an increase in the adoption of network camera systems globally. These systems are used to observe, monitor, and analyze a person, group, objects, or activities. A network camera can generally achieve close/distance monitoring using surveillance devices attached to remote video recorders and display systems.

Network Cameras Key for Safer Cities

Network cameras are proving to be a transformational force in smart cities, providing an affordable option for cities to deploy an IoT platform that delivers real, quantifiable results, which helps making cities safe. 
The safe city concept is an essential pillar for supporting the development of smart cities throughout the globe. They also provide the safety and security required to safeguard citizens from terrorism and crime and help in disaster management during natural disasters and other threats. A safe city solution should support fire (threats or hazards), the city's security, social service, and public health departments, as a measure to protect the citizens.

Network Camera Systems Market Strategic Issues 

In addition to providing a five-year market forecast, the Network Camera Systems Market Research provides detailed quantitative current market data and addresses key strategic issues as follows.

Strategic Issue for Users: Integrate Network Cameras with Video Analytics Software

Video analytics software can be hosted from individual cameras or on centrally dedicated cameras. It helps in reducing human intervention in identifying unattended packages, detecting motion, identifying number plates, and much more. After detecting a certain event of interest, it can alert a human operator and even send a video clip to the appropriate department.

Strategic Issue for Suppliers: Adopt 4K Surveillance

Ultra HD security cameras with 4K resolution provide a better picture quality and higher resolution images compared with HD cameras when digitally zoomed in. Even at 2x digital zoom, these cameras still offer 2 MP (1080p) resolution image, whereas other standard cameras offer only grainier images. These cameras are vital for the operations of certain government departments, such as traffic management or security departments, which require clearer footages of license plate numbers or faces.

Strategic Issue for All Market Participants: Economic Decline Due to COVID-19  

The COVID-19 outbreak has caused disruptions to global supply chains and business operations.  While the pandemic did not impact the 2019 demand for network camera systems, the market projections do take into account industry trends with ARC’s best estimates for how the COVID-19 pandemic will impact the network camera systems market in different facilities.
