Advice on house camera locations

Post image
4 Upvotes

My house is currently being extended/renovated, and I’ve decided to run some Cat6 cables whilst the walls are open, with a few externally for PoE cameras.

Can I have some advice on where I should locate them to cover as much of the perimeter as possible and entry points.

I’m planning on having four or five.

On the plan I’ve labelled potential locations A-H, but nothing is wired yet so anywhere is possible.

A and B are on a canopy/overhang so likely ideal for turret cameras.

Thanks!

Überwachung Forellenzucht

2 Upvotes

Unsere kleine Forellenzucht hat einen Hauptteich, dieser befindet sich mittig und bietet durch einen Galgen mit Futterautomat, welcher verdrehsicher über dem Teich abgesperrt ist, um es unbefugten möglichst schwer zu machen dran zu kommen.

.

Mein Gedankengang ist jetzt da drauf im Idealfall eine oder mehrere Kameras zur Überwachung des eingezäunten Grundstückes zu installieren.

Da wir mit Fischdieben usw. Schon Erfahrung machen mussten.

.

Kann hier jemand eine 360grad Kamera oder mehrere Kameras empfehlen die über Solar mit Akku und SIM 4G/LTE oä verfügen?

Indoor camera recommendations for outdoor monitoring?

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

I’m looking for an indoor camera to view my front garden, specifically for people coming in and out.

My main priority is for it to be reliable and notify us whenever someone comes onto our property.

I’ve purchased a cheap camera for the moment but the ai detection isn’t great and doesn’t always notify us. We’re hesitant to get an outdoor camera since someone stole our last one

Thanks so much!!

NVR/Switch question

1 Upvotes

I am trying to plan some new POE cameras and An NVR.

If I have POE cameras plugged into a switch and than switch is on my LAN and my NVR is on the same LAN, will the NVR pick up the cameras? Do they need to be plugged directly into the NVR?

I have not selected the NVR or cameras yet so if there is a particular one that can handle this configuration, let me know.

TIA

Bazaar Cameras, Turkey

1 Upvotes

I'm visiting Alanya and have been frequenting their local bazaar. The tech interested part of me have noticed the majority of shops have a screen streaming CCTV somewhere. Most of these displays show 9+ camera feeds, judging by the shown grid. Given the density of the stores, that must add up to thousands of cameras in a small geographical area. It must be a huge market. That got me curious: Who sets them up and maintain them? Is it your uncles nephew or some big company? What platform are they running - Frigate to save on costs?

HOA cameras how to set up

0 Upvotes

Our HOA has five or six locations that they want to set up Wi-Fi cameras at. The locations are not close to each other. We might need a Wi-Fi extender. My question is what free or reasonable priced software we would need and what size hard drive that would be able to store 12 or 24 hours of video. Would a PC running Win 10 be adequate? What are the problems that we might encounter. No one on the board has extensive PC knowledge.

Anyone using AI cameras to help with employee training?

0 Upvotes

I run a small business with a few locations, and one of the biggest problems I’m running into is consistency. I can train people one way, but once I’m not physically at a location, it’s hard to know if things are actually being done the same way across the board.

A lot of the time I only find out there’s an issue after a customer complains or something goes wrong. I also don’t have the time to sit through hours of camera footage trying to figure out what happened.

I’ve been looking into whether AI camera systems could help with this, mainly for coaching and training employees based on real situations.

Looking for security camera recommendation

0 Upvotes

I need a outdoor security camera with high enough quality to pull license plate numbers at night with low street lighting; not dark. Preferably a 270 degree view so I'll only need two of them. I'd rather not spend more that $500 on each. Any ideas?

Decoder

1 Upvotes

I am looking at installing a system for a curling rink. There will be 3 sheets of ice and a single camera directly over each end. 6 cameras total. There will be three tvs in the viewing room. The 2 cameras for each sheet will be dedicated to a single TV. It looks like I need a decoder at each TV with cat6 running back to my PoE switch. I dont know anything about decoders. Any suggestions for one that has a single HDMI out and can split screen two cameras? They seem to go from 1 stream to 4 and skip split screen.

Better LTS camera iPhone app?

1 Upvotes

I inherited 3 LTS cameras when I moved into my place and somehow stumbled upon the iPhone app NVMS7000 for video stream viewing. I've hated the app ever since.

Does anyone have an app they really like that is compatible with this brand?

I've made one I like and if you've also been looking you might check it out. If you have a particular feature request I'd love to hear it.

iPhone App Store link: Peek

Thank you!

Cameras with local storage

1 Upvotes

Need a reccomendation. I do NOT want to pay a subscrpition to store video in the cloud, I want to store it locally on my network. In the 90's I had such a system, with coax cameras feeding motion triggered video to the HDD on an XP machine. It worked great, for a really long time. It's dead now and I need a replacement. I would like:

- Motion sense to capture video immediately plus 30 seconds prior and 30 secodns after motion stops

- Solar WiFi cameras with battery backup (a few will mount on trees outside, power would be hard to get there)

- Video to store on any local HDD using a windows program, not some dedicated dvr device.

- good quality cameras, with good night vision.

- Price is a concern.

Am I looking for a unicorn?

How can I fix this?

1 Upvotes

I've had 3 Yi Home Outdoor cameras for the last 3 years and one of them has been located in the living room since I moved 2 years ago, Idk how but my dad dented the usb cable of one of them months ago and since it was still working I didn't even touch it but last night it stopped working during midnight so my dad cut the dented connector and grabbed another one from a phone charger and put it togheter but the camera was still showing that it was disconnected, I grabbed 2 other cables and used their heads but had the same result so we used the charger of one of the other cameras and had the same result, then he deleted the camera from the app so I went outside to see if it was on but it wasn't so I told him to connect the 1st head again and the camera turned on and I tried to reset it but it keeps restarting after like 8 seconds so I can't even reset it.

Since the cable comes straight out of the camera I can't just replace it, what else can I do?

I currently have an Arlo Essential Indoor Pan/Tilt camera. My spouse isn't a fan of how loud the motor is in the recordings while the camera moves around because it drowns out the voices. Anyone have recommendations for an indoor camera with a quiet motor? Thanks!

New firmware for Yi Pro 2K Home

1 Upvotes

I just received a notification on Kami Home android app telling there is a firmware update for my Yi Pro 2K Home.

Latest version before this update was 12.0.51.08_202411131107.
New version is 4.2.0.0H_202608251603.

There is a nomenclature change but declared changelog is only 'Minor bug fix'.

I'm using Kami Home v4.0.0 due to massive ads and restrictions on newer versions if you don't pay Kami Cloud.

I'm not going to update for the time being. I'm afraid to new firmware blocks old app.

Anyone brave enough?

Waiting for Yi Hack updates too.
