Night Vision

There are a variety of different night vision options out there. Take a look at the option that is available on the cameras that you are considering and just spend a couple of minutes reading about it. This will help you to make sure it meets your needs.
HD Image Quality
In a world where security cameras are so commonplace there are a lot of options that you can get but one of the most helpful options is HD image quality. The highest standard of HD that security cameras are currently able to record in is 4K. This will provide you with a crystal clear image, however, you will spend a lot more money for this quality.
For most factories you will find it just fine to go a step down to 1080P which will give you a quality good enough to make out features and clothing descriptions.
Motion Detection
Some camera systems are capable of watching for motion in a camera’s view or even a specific part of a camera’s view. If motion is detected it is able to either sound an alarm on the monitoring computer or send alerts to users. This feature is great for after hours or for knowing when people access certain areas of your factory.
Remote Viewing
You aren’t always in your office or by a camera computer but you will want to have access to the cameras wherever you are. This is what remote viewing is for. You can access and stream the cameras from a phone or remote computer. Oftentimes remote viewing will also allow you to watch recorded footage from anywhere.
Pan Tilt Zoom
Pan, tilt, zoom or PTZ cameras, are a specialized type of camera that are able to move the lens in a wide amount of views in order to see people anywhere within the camera’s zones. While these cameras are often more expensive, the provide you with more coverage than standard cameras and can be used in certain areas.
360 Degree View
360 degree security cameras allow you to see a whole 360 degree view where the camera is positioned. That way you can see a whole room or the whole processing floor. This may seem disorienting to see something like this but most systems have the ability to display these cameras in a variety of ways.
