Online Video Surveillance

The Web Camera Cloud is a hybrid cloud solution that uses Web Camera Pro's real-time intelligent CCTV analytics technology on the camera stream source side. This solution includes a cloud server and a local app that can be installed on a PC, phone, or cloud camera. With a real-time AI-driven motion detector, Web Camera Pro effectively lessens the strain on communication pathways and cloud storage. By balancing between local and cloud storage and processing, systems can ensure real-time monitoring while also benefiting from the scalability and redundancy of cloud services.
The use of artificial intelligence greatly reduces data transmission stress compared to conventional motion detectors. Online Video Surveillance has taken the world by storm, thanks to its advanced features that traditional systems simply cant match. With the ability to access real-time footage from any device, cloud storage for easy retrieval, and advanced analytics for intelligent monitoring, online video surveillance provides a comprehensive security solution that is both convenient and effective. Say goodbye to complicated setups and limited access - online video surveillance is the future of security.

Video Monitoring Software

What Online Video Surveillance Can Do That Traditional Systems Cant! Online video surveillance involves the remote monitoring and surveillance of video feeds via internet-connected cameras, typically IP cameras. This real-time monitoring allows users to view and manage surveillance footage online, enhancing security and situational awareness for various applications, such as home security and business surveillance.
By carefully adjusting these settings, it is possible to significantly reduce the CPU load and network traffic in a video surveillance system, thereby improving system performance and reducing the overall cost of the project.
Moreover, Web Camera Pro provides time-lapse recording, letting users capture video at one frame per second when there's no motion, saving on storage costs and extending the CCTV archive's storage duration. Connecting multiple IP cameras with identical factory settings and IP addresses can be a challenge, but there are practical solutions to help you integrate all cameras successfully. If the cameras have the same IP address, you can change the IP address of one or more cameras to prevent IP conflicts. This can be done by connecting the camera directly to your computer, accessing the cameras web interface, navigating to the network settings, changing the IP address, and saving the changes. Alternatively, you can use the manufacturers software to detect and list all connected cameras, change the IP address of each camera individually, and ensure that each camera has a unique IP address. Another method to resolve IP conflicts is to use a DHCP server, which automatically assigns unique IP addresses to each connected device. For this, you will need to enable DHCP on your router or network switch, and then enable DHCP on the cameras through the web interface or manufacturers software. The cameras will then receive unique IP addresses from the DHCP server. Additionally, you can use a Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) to isolate cameras and assign different IP addresses. This involves configuring the VLAN on your router or switch, creating a VLAN with a unique IP range, connecting the cameras to the VLAN, changing the IP address of each camera to match the VLAN IP range, and saving the changes. This will ensure that each camera has a unique IP address, preventing conflicts and allowing for smooth operation of your surveillance system.
Additionally, Web Camera Pro offers time-lapse recording, allowing users to record video with one frame per second in the absence of motion, reducing disk space costs and increasing the storage time of the CCTV archive.

How Much Storage Do You Need?

Let's calculate for different frame rates. The table below presents the storage needs for various frame rates for both 1080p and 4K resolutions:

The values in the table are computed for a full year of continuous recording. To estimate the total storage needs for multiple cameras over the same period, just multiply the table's numbers by the number of cameras you have. For a security setup with 16 cameras, each recording continuously at 1080p resolution for six months, you would require approximately 240 TB of storage. That's a substantial amount! It's vital to realize that storage requirements can soar, particularly with 4K videos recorded at higher frame rates. Using these numbers, it's straightforward to figure out the expenses for buying hard drives or for cloud storage.

Maximizing Storage with Web Camera Pro

Typical CCTV software typically identifies pixel alterations, often causing false alerts due to shifting light situations or other irrelevant motions. In contrast, Web Camera Pro employs neural network algorithms for smart object and motion identification, considerably reducing unneeded recordings.


Recording to the cloud using Web Camera Pro occurs only in the event of a specific incident. If no incident occurs, users can record in time-lapse mode, ensuring that storage is used efficiently. This efficiency is particularly useful for users with limited storage capacity, whether locally or in the cloud. The fusion of artificial intelligence and data decentralization tech in Web Camera Pro and VideoSurveillance.Cloud enables the fast and cost-efficient establishment of an effective CCTV monitoring system.

CCTV Software Disk Space Optimization

Disk space optimization features in CCTV software help manage the storage of recorded videos. This may involve settings for video compression, automatic deletion of older footage, and integration with cloud-based storage solutions. Optimizing disk space is essential for long-term, continuous recording and for minimizing hardware costs.
The integration of multiple IP cameras into a single network can sometimes be a challenge, especially when these cameras have identical factory settings and IP addresses. This situation is common when using the same model of cameras or relocating a camera without changing its settings. However, there are practical solutions that can help you connect all cameras successfully.
