Or that's what the always getting bigger, Big Brother says :"Avigilon's 16 megapixel cameras are the first surveillance cameras that can continuously monitor large fields of view while maintaining high levels of detail. In the past, security professionals have had to rely on opto-mechanical PTZ cameras for wide field of view surveillance and were forced to make a tradeoff between field of view and image detail. Avigilon's 16 megapixel cameras provide a superior solution for post incident investigation because they provide detailed images of the entire field of view, without the requirement of an operator to control the camera."
I like the press release debunking the idea of real-time incident prevention due to CCTV surveillance compared to historical performance and analyzing past events. Not that's it's not possible, but the investments are not worth the ROI, and if self-regulation is the single most visible return on investment here, that's a bad deal. But in reality, keep on living in a CCTV myopia world, where covering the "blind spot" of one camera gets covered by installing another one, and the "blind spot" of the second one gets covered by a third one. It's about time your CCTV expenditures start declining given reasonable metrics defining a successful investment appear soon.
Now let's hope these cameras never get installed in public restrooms, shall we?
