Abstract

The fact that video surveillance is such an effective system especially when one thinks of its widespread use attests to its low investment cost. This chapter contains information about design guidelines, hardware information, specific examples, and necessary parameters to be addressed while designing representative security video surveillance system applications: protection of all assets and personnel, calculation of the overall cost of the video system, surveillance target (assets and/or personnel), surveillance timing schedule, type and number of cameras needed, camera placement, field of view required, console room monitoring equipment, number and types of monitors, number of displays per monitor, number and type of recorders, digital recording technology needed, type of video switchers, type of video printer, if additional lighting is required, if intensified or thermal IR cameras are required, if sensors at doors, windows, and perimeters that are integrated with video signals are needed, digital video motion detectors placement, IP cameras, type of signal and video transmission, type of digital transmission, type of 802.11 protocol, type of compression (MPEG-4 or H.264), and the necessity of encryption or scrambling.
