Versatility plus

Wireless cameras are becoming favorite surveillance gadgets everywhere. These offer flexibility in installation and are user friendly.But how do they differ from the wired versions?

Mobility and flexibility - Wireless cameras can be moved to different areas in the office or in the home. In contrast, wired cameras, once installed, are not easy to remove. This will require the assistance of a technical person.

Cost effective – Since it is easy to transfer wireless cameras without any technical assistance, there is no cost involved here. You can relocate it from the pool to the family den without sweat.

No fussy wires – Wireless cameras blend well with any interior. Your interior decorating will not be marred by the presence of unsightly wires.

Different sizes to fit different needs – You have the option to get a camera smaller than the size of your thumb which you can take with you anywhere. Don’t be fooled by its size. It can record all activities better than the bigger cameras. People act naturally when they don’t suspect any spy gadgets. You can catch them in the act without sweat.

Available in black and white or color - Surprisingly, technology has made wireless cameras in color affordable. Color cameras are better at providing identifiable images. You’ll know the hair color of the subject and the shirt color he or she is wearing. This aspect in surveillance is useful for identifying miscreants if there is a need to.

How it works

It is smart to know how your wireless cameras work to be able to appreciate them. Essentially, this is how it goes. Between the camera, computer or TV, is a receiver and transmitter. The transmitter forwards the audio and video signals. The distance will also depend on the type of wireless cameras. You could be 500 miles away or just 400 feet away from the camera and still receive real time signals.

You can hide the camera inside a doll or a clock and it will work steadily while the signals are recorded on the regular VHS cassette tape. So get the wireless cameras for different needs: a nanny camera to keep an eye on the nanny, a doorbell camera to see who is at the door, and an outdoor camera to check on your property while you’re away.

There is no need to be alarmed about wireless cameras. Contrary to popular thinking, these are easy to set up and use. Here’s how you start these cameras:

1. When you’ve decided the place for the wireless camera indoors or outdoors, mount it where you want it. Also make sure that is protected from the elements.

2. Plug it in or you can use the battery pack. Of course, you have to make sure that the designated area has access to an electrical outlet.

3. Have your video receiver plugged into a computer, VCR, or TV.

4. Presto, you start enjoying live feed.

So if you spend thousands of dollars beautifying your home, take the time to invest in wireless cameras for your home video surveillance systems. The returns of this investment cannot match a Bill Gates windfall.
