Introduction:Entering the new era of IP surveillance, cameras are gradually moving towards a new phase of "four transformations": front-end integration, network transmission, digital processing, and system integration. They are destined to play an increasingly important role in various industries, especially in artificial intelligence, quality living, security, and safety fields. However, while surveillance cameras have numerous advantages and benefits, they have also given rise to certain negative impacts, such as copyright infringement and privacy security concerns.The Evolution of Surveillance Cameras:The development of surveillance cameras spans nearly 150 years, and over time, they have evolved to incorporate various...

In recent times, spurred by the ever-evolving demands for enhanced security, many corporate entities have undertaken the installation of surveillance equipment within their office premises. As employees step into their workplace, a unique sense of being under constant observation pervades the atmosphere. The shift from being the observers to becoming the observed has sparked diverse reactions and opinions among individuals.   Employees find themselves in an interesting dilemma, as even the most dedicated work efforts are interspersed with seemingly inconsequential actions such as nose-touching or momentary scratching. These fleeting behaviors, inadvertently caught on camera, can become...

In surveillance systems, calculating the required bandwidth and storage capacity is essential to ensure smooth and efficient operations. At OHWOAI, we offer solutions to help you determine the optimal bandwidth and storage needs for your surveillance setup. Here's a step-by-step guide to calculate both:Bandwidth Calculation:Network Bandwidth Size = Bitrate Size × Number of CamerasNote: Some professional sources may refer to "bitrate" as "bit rate." For our understanding, "bitrate" represents network speed, while "bit rate" refers to the size of monitoring video produced per second.Bandwidth at Camera End: Refers to the upload bandwidth (uplink) as cameras send...
