Security Camera Capabilities at Night?




Nubian Kin


Just have a general question. How good are most security cameras at night. What is the typical range the camera is able to produce a good image in a night setting, with no light or very low light. I have been looking on the internet and in magazines to find there capabilities. I know there are all infrared and night vision camera, but im talking about a fixed positioned camera that is not monitored by anyone, so there is no zoom capabilities. Do generally they pick up good night time footage or do they need good lighting.


Answer
It just depends on the quality of the setup. Some places will use a cheap IP cam with no infrared lighting that's barely good enough for America's Funniest Home Videos. Some places uses camera with a bunch of infrared LEDs that can see just fine. FLIR cameras are becoming more common, which see body heat.

Help with security cameras?!?

Where do i buy night vision security cameras, and how do i hook them up live to my computer with a motion detector alarm?


Answer
Cameras; not sure look maybe at newegg.com, or buy.com
for software:
Secure Cam
is a motion detecting web cam surveillance software that can automatically capture a series of images whenever motion is detected in the monitored area. You can adjust the detection sensitivity, automatically archive captured still images and playback the images in sequence with the supplied viewer application. Secure Cam can monitor and display up to 99 cameras and automatically organizes captures based on the device. Other features include support for multiplexing, time stamps, text overlay and more. The program works with webcams, as well as DVR cards.
Freeware.

Try it on a regular webcam, or streaming video cam first to see if it's along the lines of what you want...it's free so not overly fancy or pretty interface...
