Manufacturing
Manufacturing and Industrial environments have many opportunities for using surveillance not only for security and safety, but to increase productivity, monitor and assist in servicing of equipment, training, and workflow management.These environments also have unique challenges for surveillance. Long distances, harsh environments, and tight budgets. They are particularly suited to the capabilities of IP cameras, which can be used wirelessly or with structured cabling without the requirement for separate cabling per camera. Cameras can be integrated with equipment sensors and safety devices, and many are available in rugged housings to resist vapors, dust, and debris.
SAM provides the savings in bandwidth to make it feasible to monitor in real-time without a major recurring cost in internet services. With the storage savings, it becomes possible to store for years or more, saving liability and providing documentation for disputes, claims, and policy violations... even years down the road.
