A CCTV Camera (Closed-Circuit Television Camera) is a device that captures video and sends it to designated monitoring, recording, or processing equipment rather than broadcasting it publicly. Modern CCTV cameras can include features such as high-resolution imaging, infrared night vision, wide dynamic range, motion detection, and network connectivity, allowing footage to be viewed or analyzed in real time.
CCTV cameras are used in locations such as commercial buildings, transportation facilities, industrial sites, retail stores, and public areas to support security and operational monitoring. Networked cameras can also work with CCTV Analytics, video management systems, and edge-based AI to detect objects, track activity, or identify specific events automatically.
