What Are the Limitations of Traditional Surveillance?

Previously, traditional security cameras mainly operated in isolation as standalone systems. The footage was often grainy, lacked detail, and was cumbersome to search.

When a security incident occurred, sifting through hours of low-quality video to identify an intruder or capture a readable license plate frequently resulted in disappointment. The results were often inadequate for any serious legal follow-up, and without real-time analytics, homeowners couldn't respond to threats instantaneously.

How Has Video Surveillance Changed in the Modern Era?

Surveillance systems are intelligent now and serve as a personal security guard on your property. They are always available and informative but more discreet than in the past. With high-definition cameras and AI-powered analytics, these cameras are smaller yet manage to provide crystal-clear images.

These smart cameras can detect and categorize objects and movements, such as distinguishing between a passing car and a loitering individual, even in the dark of night. More sophisticated systems can even recognize faces and license plates, instantly alerting you to the presence of known individuals—be they welcome or not—via an instant notification sent to your mobile device. Even if you’re away, you’re always aware of what’s occurring on and near your property.

Thanks to impeccable visual details, high-resolution capability improves the likelihood that law enforcement can take action in the case of an incident. In addition to the peace of mind that around-the-clock surveillance provides, these cameras integrate seamlessly with other home technology systems for comprehensive protection, property insight, and convenience.

Explore Smart Home Security by AUDIOVISIONS

Imagine this scenario: It’s late in the evening, and you’re not at home. Your surveillance system detects movement near a side entrance. Instantly, exterior flood lights turn on, potentially deterring an intruder. Simultaneously, the camera zooms in, capturing high-resolution images while an alert is sent to your smartphone. You can immediately view the footage, assess the situation, and decide if further action is needed. And if you’re unavailable, the remote monitoring service team checks it out for you. These response scenarios are tailored to your Bay Area property's unique layout and needs.
