Camera Surveillance Software
In an increasingly complex and rapidly changing world, the role of camera surveillance systems is more crucial than ever. However, the traditional surveillance systems often rely heavily on human monitoring, which comes with its own set of challenges. This article explores these challenges and how software like SmartVision can offer transformative solutions.
The Problem of Human Attention Span
Cognitive Overload
Modern facilities and urban infrastructures often employ an overwhelming number of surveillance cameras. While these cameras provide a comprehensive view of an area, they also contribute to information overload for the security personnel monitoring them. The human brain is not designed to process such vast amounts of visual data continuously, leading to decreased attention and increased error rates over time.
Inefficiency Over Time
Research indicates that human attention starts to wane after about 20 minutes of continuous activity. For surveillance personnel who are required to monitor multiple camera feeds for extended periods, this can lead to critical oversights. Furthermore, after about 8 hours of continuous monitoring, the attentional resources are severely depleted, making it almost impossible to detect anomalous activities effectively.
Number of Cameras
Various studies suggest that a human operator can effectively monitor up to 9-12 camera feeds simultaneously. Beyond this, the detection rate for unusual activities begins to drop dramatically.

IP Camera Software
The SmartVision Solution
SmartVision is a video surveillance software that uses computer vision and AI algorithms to understand everything that happens on your cameras. It can analyze data and provide actionable insights to its users. With features like object recognition, ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition), and face recognition, the system significantly reduces the cognitive load on human operators.

SmartVision comes with an alert system that sends notifications about any suspicious activity. This ensures that you are always aware of any unusual activities, thereby supplementing the decreased human attention over time.
Resource Management
The software supports both CPU and GPU and automatically load balances and determines the usage pattern. This enables you to use any IP or USB camera for a complete surveillance system at minimal cost.
Overcoming Traditional Limitations
Traditional surveillance systems often rely on pixel change detection, which can cause false alarms due to lighting changes or other benign activities. SmartVision's intelligent algorithms can distinguish between these factors and genuine security threats.
Disk Space and Cloud Storage
To solve the problem of disk space, SmartVision can be paired with VideoSurveillance.Cloud. This allows for efficient storage management and the ability to upload important events to the cloud.
Why Cloud Storage is Essential
Uploading events to a cloud service like VideoSurveillance.Cloud is vital for operational efficiency and quick response. It allows for real-time alerts and provides an extra layer of data security, transforming the system from merely recording events to proactively managing security risks.
