Wireless cameras have become increasingly prevalent in today's society, and are used for a variety of purposes. This article serves to give you a basic overview of the different types of wireless camera available, and how they’re used.
Security Wireless Camera
An outdoor wireless security camera can be used in a home security system, indoors and outdoors. Wireless cameras come in all shapes and sizes. Some types are waterproof and can be hidden away in outdoor plants or other nooks and crannies. There are also wireless video cameras with night vision.
One advantage of using a wireless camera for outdoor security is that one does not need to do extensive preparatory setups or wiring. If you decide you would like to have your camera in a different location, you simply move it over.
A wireless security camera is also good for temporary purposes – for example, if you want to have it in a certain location for a specific event or time period, it is simple to do so and then move it later.
Wireless Spy Camera
A spy cam is just what the name states – a hidden wireless camera used to spy on people. Modern forms and uses of spy cams seem to be becoming more and more creative. They have the ability to be incorporated into pens, can be as small as a USB flash key, disguised in glasses, or simply so tiny that it is easy to conceal them within clothing. Some spy cameras also come with little microphones and listening/recording devices. You can even get a backpack with a hidden camera in it (perhaps this is useful in case you want to keep close watch on whoever is hiking behind you.)
A Nanny Cam
Surveillance cameras can be used by parents to keep an eye on their children's babysitters (to make sure they don't abuse the kids, or raid the fridge too often), or they have the ability to be used by nannies to keep an eye on the kids themselves. They have the ability to also be used to watch over pets from afar or from another room. These wireless cameras can get innovative too – one recent example I saw is disguised in an air-freshener. In some cases, these wireless cameras come with portable hand-held monitors so that you can always have an eye on your child as you move through the house.
Some types of wireless nanny cameras (or surveillance cameras) display the image on a cell phone (if compatible), PDA, World wide web web browser, or a standard video display. Some are even equipped with heat sensors and will alert you by email if someone enters a room.
These cameras also have remote control functions so that you can change their position and pan to get a new view, from wherever you’re.
