Discovering the Everyday Uses of a Video Surveillance System

Experiencing Unprecedented Peace of Mind Provided by Today’s Technology

For many people, installing a video surveillance system is all about protection. They want to know their family is safe and their home is secure. When they’re away on vacation or a business trip, they’re at peace knowing they’ll receive a push notification if a stranger steps onto their property or if someone tries to break in. 

While this level of home security offers incredible peace of mind, often, it’s the support your system provides during life’s everyday events that means the most. When integrated with your Control4 home automation platform, your system works seamlessly with your lighting, audio, video, and more.

Let’s explore how security cameras help you live your best life.

Types of Security Cameras

In the last decade, we’ve witnessed a tremendous transformation in today’s home surveillance capabilities. What was once limited to businesses and commercial enterprises has been adopted by homeowners and entered mainstream residential properties. 

The main types are outdoor, indoor, and doorbell cameras. The latter lets you monitor your front door and offers two-way communication with visitors and delivery personnel. When integrated with smart door locks and lighting, you can tap a button to unlock the door and turn on the entryway lights

Outdoor cameras offer night vision and wide-angle viewing, enabling expansive coverage of your entire property and crystal-clear video even after dark. Indoor cameras can double as nanny cams and keep an eye on specific areas of your home, such as the playroom, medicine and liquor cabinets, and the top of stairs.

Digital Tripwires

One of the most sought-after features for homeowners is digital tripwires. Outdoors, these invisible boundaries are placed around pools or your entire property. Indoors, they may be placed in front of out-of-bound areas. When crossed, you receive an immediate alert, enabling you to pull up the live video to see what’s transpiring. 

For instance, if the babysitter is chatting on the phone while your two-year-old decides to check out the cleaning cabinet, you’ll receive a notification. You can instantly see what’s happening via the security camera and video-connect through a Control4 touchscreen. After the kids go to bed, hallway security cameras alert you if they decide to play video games in the media room rather than get a good night’s sleep.

The Freedom to Flourish

While you want to give your kids the freedom to explore, there’s a fine line between independence and safety. With a digital perimeter around your property, you’ll know if they’re heading into dangerous territory or if someone has crossed into your yard. 

When you’re busy finishing up a task at home, and the kids are outside playing, a quick glance at the live video feed lets you know all is well. Whether keeping an eye on anxious pets, new babysitters, toddlers, or teenagers, today’s video surveillance offers a level of connectivity that makes every day a little easier and less stressful.
