Internet security camera technology is changing the way retailers can monitor their in-stores. Security cameras are set to take on a range of improved abilities over the next five years, with the introduction of Internet Protocol (IP) for video security networks.

In a recent retailing article, Tony Lagan, national business manager video security at Sony Australia, said “IP security camera systems would allow retailers access to a suite of analytical products and options not previously seen on analogue systems. Everything is now going on a computer network when it comes to video security. There’s definitely a big push in the direction of IP, because there are so many advantages to it.”

Ip security cameras offer increased abilities to film specified times, locations and products, as well as filming point of sale transactions when camera system is triggered.

If you don’t want someone going to a certain area of a store, as soon as someone goes there the security camera system can send an email with an image directly to the store manager or security guard cell phone anywhere in the world. IP security cameras are able to be set up anywhere with a data port.   Lagan predicts the penetration of IP into business surveillance would be close to 50% by 2012.
