Abstract
Summary
Traditionally, video monitoring has its roots in security services, primarily
for the purposes of surveillance. The fundamental ability of this technology
to provide a continuously updated, real-time visual image of a targeted area,
coupled with recording capabilities, has made it a dominant tool in the
security sector.
But the face of video monitoring is changing. The same capabilities of video
monitoring that have proved so valuable to the security sector are also
proving to be valuable when applied to a larger range of business processes.
Although security remains the dominant application, this technology is also
being applied to a wide variety of other business processes within
organizations. In order to gain additional insight into this expansion,
In-Stat conducted a survey of 300 users involved in video monitoring, and the
results and analysis of this survey is the subject of this report.
This report provides insight into:
- Types of video-monitoring applications currently deployed
- Average number of sites being monitored
- Utilization of 2-way audio
- Utilization of face recognition for access control
- Integration of environmental sensor applications with video-monitoring
systems
- Types of video-monitoring applications planned for deployment looking
forward
