How to Select a Home Security Surveillance System
The technology used in home security surveillance systems has changed dramatically over the years. Today, the surveillance cameras that come with surveillance systems are smaller, cheaper, and better. Up until a few years ago video footage was recorded onto VHS tape, but today DVR (digital video recorder) systems record video footage onto a hard drive. The price of home security surveillance system has come down dramatically over the last few years. The surveillance cameras and the video recording device are the two main parts of any home security surveillance system.
1. Surveillance Camera Technology
Surveillance cameras either use CMOS or CCD (charge couple device) chips to record video images. CMOS is used in cheaper cameras, and the video quality is not as good as CCD cameras. CCD camera formats are measured in inches, and the larger the format the brighter the images produced. A CCD format of 1/4″ or 1/3″ is good enough for most situations.
A surveillance camera's resolution is normally specified as the number of TVL (TV Lines) that the camera can produce. This determines how detailed the video picture quality is. A resolution between 350-400TVL is normally produced by surveillance cameras. The frame rate of a surveillance camera is the number of separate images that the camera can record per second. Most camera’s can record at 30fps (frames per second), and video below 30fps is not smooth and begins to look jerky.
A color surveillance camera is not as good as a black and white camera in poor lighting conditions. A camera’s sensitivity to light is measured in lux. A camera must have a light sensitivity of 0.5 lux or lower to be able to view images at night.
2. Surveillance Camera Lenses
The lens of a surveillance camera should match the CCD format of the camera - 1/3″ lenses should be used with cameras with a 1/3″ CCD format. The cameras in most home security surveillance systems have lenses with a fixed focal length – these cameras do not have a facility to zoom in and out. Cameras with a motorized zoom are quite expensive, and allow you to remotely change the camera's focal length.
3. Other Surveillance Camera Features
Some surveillance cameras include Infrared (IR) LEDs, which project an infrared light allowing you view video in complete darkness. These cameras can typically see between a a range of 10 to 50 feet in complete darkness. Cameras with a pan, tilt and zoom (PTZ) facility are included with the more expensive home security surveillance systems. To be able to pan the camera’s view left and right, tilt the camera’s view up or down, or zoom in and out, the camera must have a PTZ (pan, tilt and zoom) facility.
4. Surveillance Camera Housings
A home security surveillance system can have large, visible cameras, which are cheaper, have larger housings, and can deter criminals by being clearly visible. Covert surveillance cameras are more expensive, are quite small, and are normally hidden within household objects. Dome housings are mounted on ceilings, and are commonly used with cameras that have a PTZ facility. Protective weatherproof security camera housings are used with outdoor surveillance cameras that need to be protected from the elements.
5. Video Surveillance Monitors
Using a standard TV as a video surveillance monitor does not produce the best picture quality. Computer monitors produce better picture quality, and also offer an extended lifespan. If you want to display video from multiple cameras onto a single monitor, then a 15″ monitor should be the minimum size you purchase.
6. Video Surveillance System Recorders
Most home security surveillance systems today record video onto a hard drive and not VHS tape. This has several advantages. The first advantage is that you can immediately go to a specific point in a recording without having to fast-forward or rewind a tape. Secondly, you can playback an earlier part of any camera recording whilst that camera is still recording.
Built-in motion detection is included in some home security surveillance systems. The system can be set to only start recording video when motion is detected. This will reduce the hard drive storage space requirements. There is no benefit in buying a VCR system over a DVR system, apart from its cheaper price.
7. PC Based DVR Versus Standalone DVR
There are two types of home security surveillance system, PC based DVR systems, and standalone DVR systems. A PC based DVR system is quite cheap, and is run off an existing PC. Special software must be installed on the PC, and a PC board must be installed inside the PC case. PC based DVR systems are generally slower, and a lot more unstable when compared against any freestanding DVR system.
The recording on a standard DVR security camera system is done using hardware, and this eliminates software crashes that you sometimes get with the PC based DVR systems. PC based systems generally do not perform as well, and are not as reliable as DVR systems.
8. Considerations when buying a Home Security Surveillance System
Your first consideration is the quality of the video you want to record. The is is the quality of the video recordings in terms of resolution (TV Lines), and the video frame rate (video smoothness). The second consideration is the number of cameras that you will need for your home security surveillance system. Entry-level systems come with 4 cameras. The third important consideration is the hard drive size that you will require for the DVR system. Low-end DVR systems come with 80 gigabyte (GB) hard drives, whilst top-end systems come with a 750GB hard drive.
