I dont see a business discussion forum, so if you dont mind I'll pose my question here?
I've been asked to research a cctv system for my uncles business. kids keep on breaking in an lobbing rocks through vehicle windows, it just isn't funny anymore.
I know that if we were to ask a firm to do it here in Ireland, most of the fees would be for them... its just the culture here. I know im capable of setting it up, so i figure I can spend the entire budget on equipment, it makes more sense in my mind.
Ok, so we'll say a budget of about a grand. If thats not realistic let me know, but it seems a good figure.
3-4 cameras with motion detection
he wants it to send a message to his phone if there's movement
heres a pic of the premesis from above. The front faces south (to the bottom of the pic) as we look at it.
the front is about 100 meters wide, fenced off by a 7 foot high steel.. fence.
its approx 300 meters long. In the back theres tyres, thats why its black.
I was thinking 1 or two towers, I can make them myself, with cameras, maybe a dummy camera and some flood lights.
however im no expert, and thats why im here.
is my general plan sound or could it be streamlined or added too?
could you guys recommend so hardware? i really dont know where to start, i know theres a difference between cmos and ccd chips, not sure which is better.. something with low light or night capability will be necessary
