VIDEO SURVEILLANCE
FEEL SAFE AT ALL TIMES

Video surveillance systems are used for the clever observation of facilities and public spaces with optical, acoustic or temperature-sensitive sensors in conjunction with artificial intelligence in order to be able to evaluate the data with the highest level of precision. The main areas of application for video surveillance are public and private facilities, traffic areas and technical systems of all kinds.

 

Our experts first carry out a comprehensive project assessment to determine your company’s requirements and work with you to develop the surveillance solution that exactly meets your individual requirements (HD, IP network connection, wireless or closed circuit TV). We can even plan your project remotely using site sketches, plans, digital photos and online satellite images. Our engineers have extensive knowledge of security and IT technologies, so even customers with very complex security requirements can be sure that we will create and configure a tailor-made camera system for them.

Advantages of surveillance cameras:

 

Video surveillance improves security, has a deterrent effect and thus reduces the crime rate, but on the other hand it helps to detect crimes, provides evidence and collects clues, restricts access and offers a high level of convenience for everyday life through applications that can give you a feeling of security even when you are on the move.

Requirements for video surveillance:

The use of video systems to monitor public areas and within companies is not permitted without further ado. The applicable legal regulations arise from the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). However, there are no paragraphs in the GDPR that explicitly deal with video surveillance. Instead, an assessment must be made based on the general clause in Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter f of the GDPR.
Accordingly, the collection, processing or storage of personal data is only permitted if it is necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the person monitoring the data or of third parties and does not outweigh the interests or fundamental rights of the data subjects. Consequently, both the interests of the company and those affected (e.g. customers and employees) as well as their fundamental rights must be determined and weighed against each other.
It can be viewed as a legitimate interest if a dangerous situation exists and this can be proven. The industry and business environment can have a significant influence on this, for example if a shop in which valuables are sold is to be monitored. There may also be a legitimate interest if recordings are intended to preserve evidence.
The video surveillance procedure must be included in the list of processing activities (Article 30 GDPR).

 

It is also important to ensure that there is sufficient information and information signage at monitored locations.

MOBOTIX’s motto is ‘Beyond Human Vision’. For the company, video surveillance is just part of an integral concept to overcome the variety of real challenges in industries such as manufacturing, retail, healthcare or transportation, for which MOBOTIX offers itself as a basic platform for innovative solutions.

 

MOBOTIX video surveillance cameras offer premium features such as Full HD video at 30 frames per second, 4K and 8K resolutions, wide dynamic range settings, 3D noise reduction, good day and night readability, tamper detection, microSD memory card, digital zoom , vertical view mode, camera-integrated AI algorithms as well as an extensive app and option packages to expand existing camera systems.

MOBOTIX’s IP video systems have been optimized for remote applications and cloud-based technologies: This allows the cameras to reduce their bandwidth requirements by scaling the video size and frame rate. Thanks to the integrated virtual PTZ functionality (pan, tilt, zoom), image details are still available. The cameras provide internal storage of high-resolution videos and provide low-resolution live images when required. In addition, playback with a low bandwidth is possible. MOBOTIX cameras can also manage an event-controlled video ring buffer via the network or Internet (the oldest recordings are overwritten when the memory is full). The live channel and recorded videos are extremely secure because the data is already encrypted in the camera.

The special features of MOBOTIX video surveillance:

  • Professional camera systems
  • FREE cloud control software, extensive app and option packages
  • Available for iPhone / iPad / Android Mobile
  • Integrated artificial intelligence
  • Decentralized concept
  • Quality and reliability, the most robust cameras in the entire industry
  • Made in Germany
