Cameras
Few people know that the development of video surveillance preceded a long history. We have collected for you the most interesting video surveillance facts….
The market for photo and video devices has been developing rapidly in recent years. New technologies are appearing, different types of cameras are actively competing with each other, trying to attract the attention of consumers with various new options and features.
Do You Know?
1913
The prototype of the first video
Surveillance system was a photographic system introduced in the United States at Holloway Prison. You would be surprised, but that was in 1913!
1942
First video surveillance camera
And thirty years later, in 1942, in Germany, scientist Walter Bruch invented the first video surveillance camera so that the launch of the V-2 ballistic missile could be observed remotely
1956
Switch traffic lights in time
The video surveillance system was first introduced in Hamburg, in 1956. It was designed to switch traffic lights in time. Three years later such systems had already spread around the world.
1968
A Small HeaaThe fight against crimeding
With the help of video surveillance began in 1968. Cameras were installed in the state of New York, the city of Olien. The images from the cameras were transmitted directly to the police station.
The compact cameras are going through a tough time today, having to compete with budget-sized DSLRs and smartphone cameras. The latter win over compact cameras in terms of accessibility (smartphones are always at hand) and possibilities of processing the footage – photos or video can be processed on the spot and immediately sent to social networks, e-mail, cloud storage.
In this case, the quality of the captured material is better even with the cheapest compact cameras – smartphones, including expensive ones, are not yet able to compete adequately on this parameter. In addition, the compacts’ zoom allows for multi-plane shooting. Given such different capabilities of different types of cameras, it was not difficult to predict the emergence of devices that combine the advantages of each option.
