1. Monitoring Between Central Monitoring System And Traditional CCTV

Traditional CCTV:

A lot of people installed CCTV for security purposes to prevent burglary. For traditional CCTV, you will need to allocate extra cost for monitoring as in hiring someone to playback the footage checking whether anything happens. This is a tedious job so most people will lose their passion by falling asleep therefore negligence of the video footage. No 24/7 monitoring will be allocated for the traditional CCTV. For the central monitoring system, all the CCTV live footage will be collected in a room.

Central Monitoring System:

Central Monitoring System is monitoring through CSI AI Technology’s staff by live video monitoring. It is different from the traditional CCTV, they will get ready 24/7. When a burglary happens, centralize system is triggered by a parameter sensor from an AI camera. Then, the CSI AI Technology staff will trigger the alarm and report to the polis to protect your house.

2. AI Technology Integrated

Traditional CCTV:

For traditional CCTV, there is not any AI Technology involved. The traditional CCTV can only record what happens in front of the screen. In most crimes, traditional CCTV or its storage will be the first target to be destroyed.

Central Monitoring System:

Central Monitoring System provided AI cameras with parameter sensors. The parameter sensor can be used in many applications in real life. For security purposes, the parameter snesor can detect the existence of the object with more than 99.5% accuracy. You will just need to set the coverage perimeter where the cameras have to be installed accordingly. When someone enters the coverage, the centralized system will be triggered, and the CSI AI technology’s staff will get noticed. So, the CSI technology’s staff will check on the house security’s situation. If that is a crime, they will trigger the home alarm and report it to the police immediately.

The similarity of the traditional CCTV and Central Monitoring System.

1. All data can go cloud.

Both central monitoring systems and traditional CCTV can go cloud as long as the video recorder connected to the internet. This data could be stored at the cloud server to retrieve any time needed. Mean that, at any time anywhere you can log on to the cloud server to watch the CCTV.

Normally, this cloud system has been protected by the username and password, even have a second layer of protection by 2-factor verification. The hacker has many ways to hack the CCTV system to gain excess bypass the login requirement and 2-factor verification.

2. Both have storage build-in storage or cloud-based

The CCTV storage is much dependent on the whole system set up, you can choose to have both build-in storage and cloud-based storage. Cloud-based storage would be much safer because it does not have a hardware drive located at your premises.

But of course, this option is a much expensive choice, the internet connection requirement also needs to be very stable, otherwise, the image produced intermittently and blur. One disadvantage to having hard disk storage at the premises, the thief can steal the CCTV recorder together.
