Many argue the United States is one of the most surveilled countries, with 15.3 closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras for every 100 individuals. The public opinion around CCTV is varied, but there are many positives to using CCTV in public places — if they work. Many of the current cameras are simply too old or have outdated software, meaning they’re no longer fit for purpose.
The industry is constantly changing, with new technologies and innovative solutions driven by increased security needs brought on by the pandemic. One area where CCTV technology has developed is that of artificial intelligence (AI) CCTV cameras.
