Hi everyone, today we want to raise a question we’ve received about one of our most interesting and innovative CCTV technologies: “What are active deterrence surveillance cameras?”. Let us explore this surveillance camera in detail and why you should adopt this technology, the benefit it can bring to every surveillance system.

  1. What are active deterrence cameras?

Briefly said, CCTV, or closed-circuit television, is what we call our security cameras and recorders working together. It is a good form of security used to capture footage on-site to protect their employees, friends, family, and property. CCTV is, therefore, a reactive solution to theft and break-ins. When we say reactive solution, what we mean is that you can only watch footage from after-the-fact circumstances, as a reaction to those circumstances. Normal cameras and recorders on their own can not do anything to prevent theft and break-ins, providing that they are just providing evidence for a variety of situations. So, we know that users are pretty angry not to have the right reaction to the circumstance, and that is why Active Deterrence steps in the game.

2. How do active deterrence cameras function?

Active Deterrence Cameras are the answer to having a simultaneous proactive, and reactive solution to security installed on site. Why compromise when you could have the best of both worlds? These cameras are equipped with the ability to use IVS or Intelligent Video Surveillance rules in combination with their primary Active Deterrence Features. For example, using the camera’s interface, you can create or draw tripwires and intrusion boxes to trigger the cameras active deterrence features, and/or IVS recording.

To be specific, we would like to give you an example by news from 7News about the danger of being unprotected. Trantech’s experts highly recommend you check and upgrade your security system to ensure all evidence are available for you when you need them the most.

So, when a potential thief approaches the property, the camera will alarm, letting them know they’re under surveillance and alerting anyone nearby such as on-site security guards to the scene! Additionally, the camera itself is an IP camera capable of recording to an NVR or Hybrid DVR, working as a reactive solution as well. Considering the above abilities to upload custom recordings, this also means this camera could instead be used as a greeter, for when customers open the front door!
