It is a hybrid cloud solution that employs the software's real-time intelligent video analytics on the camera stream source side. The solution comprises a cloud server and a local application that can be installed on a phone, personal computer, or cloud camera. This technology helps significantly decrease the load on channels and cloud disk space. Uploading events to a cloud service is crucial for improving security. It not only aids in efficiently storing and managing surveillance data but also enables prompt response mechanisms. By transitioning from mere event recording to proactive response strategies, cloud services transform the overall efficiency and reliability of surveillance systems.

Comparable System Cost. While IP cameras are generally more expensive than their analog counterparts, the total cost of a full IP system tends to be slightly lower than that of a comparable analog system. Since IP cameras have a wider field of vision, as well, an IP system can often work with fewer less cameras than an analog system.

Relying on local storage alone has its risks. In case of hardware malfunctions or theft, all recorded data could be lost. Cloud storage offers a more secure and reliable backup solution. Additionally, cloud services provide the advantage of real-time monitoring and quick response mechanisms.

Outdoor environments are dynamic, with constant movement of people, cars, and the presence of weather elements. Consequently, conventional systems relying on pixel change detection are prone to false alarms due to varying lighting conditions caused by clouds, the sun, and other factors. Moreover, nocturnal insects such as moths, attracted to the infrared illumination of cameras, frequently trigger false alerts, prompting users to switch their recorders to continuous recording mode.

To minimize the frequency of false alarms, there is a need for software to discern between various stimuli accurately. Implementing refined algorithms that can distinguish between different objects, weather conditions, and light changes is crucial. It is also imperative to enhance the sensitivity and accuracy of motion detectors to avoid unnecessary recordings and alerts, focusing more on significant events involving specific object movement.
