Web Camera Features

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. Discover hidden and lesser-known features of web cameras that can significantly enhance your video recording and communication experience.

Web Camera Features You Didnt Know Existed Web Camera Features refer to the various functionalities and capabilities of web cameras. These features may include resolution settings, autofocus, low-light performance, zoom, built-in microphones, and more, all of which contribute to the cameras usability and performance.
Storing high-resolution video data requires substantial storage capacities. Traditional systems might require around 6.5 Tb of disk space for continuous archiving of a single 1080p IP camera for a year. When multiplied by the number of cameras in a system, the storage requirements can be daunting.
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. One of the most significant advantages of mobile apps for video surveillance is the ability to repurpose old smartphones. RTSP Camera is a prime example of this. By installing the app on an old smartphone, users can instantly transform their device into a functional surveillance system, leveraging its camera and microphone. The app provides a built-in RTSP server, enabling users to stream both video and audio for network live broadcasts. This means that rather than purchasing expensive dedicated IP cameras, one can simply repurpose a device they already own. The RTSP Security Camera software ensures that users can view and record RTSP and HTTP video streams from their makeshift IP surveillance cameras. Such professional-level CCTV video monitoring ensures properties remain secure.
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.

Vehicle License Plate Recognition Software

Vehicle license plate recognition software uses optical character recognition to automatically identify and log license plates of vehicles. This is often used in parking lots, toll booths, and secure entry points to track and manage vehicles. Advanced versions can integrate with databases, enabling features like real-time alerts for stolen vehicles or automatic billing systems for toll collection.
Wi-Fi operates on shared frequency bands, which means multiple devices, including other cameras, smartphones, and household gadgets, compete for the same spectrum. This interference can degrade the Wi-Fi signal strength and, consequently, the quality of the video being transmitted.
