fuel cell – R.C. car with wireless camera powered by H2

This is a RC car that will be powered by a hydrogen fuel cell which converts hydrogen to electricity. There is also a wireless camera attached to it which will be connected to a router that will send video and audio signal to a TV, allowing us to control the RC car from a remote location.

Pros and Cons of Wireless Video Security
By Jason Katzenback

Increasing security concerns have led to increasing numbers of security cameras. Public buildings, stores, banks and private homes have all stepped up the security of their property and installed video cameras. Now, technology has made it easier than ever to look after your property.

Protecting your property is just one use of security cameras. People also use them to watch over their children, or employees while they are away. They can also monitor home workers like maids or cleaning companies, or even spy on someone.

There are many different types of security cameras on the market today. If you are not good with wires and would not like to deal with the hassle, then a wireless video camera is a good choice. Wireless cameras are easier to set up, and they don’t have the hassle of the wires. A wireless camera is also small enough to hide easily. A disadvantage to wireless video cameras is that the locations where you are able to place these cameras are limited. There are many factors you have to consider, like how far the camera is away from the recording device and power source. Placing the camera outside could prove to be a challenge, yet it is not impossible. A wire camera can be placed wherever, and moved whenever. This is one advantage to these.

If your motive for the camera is for spying, then I wireless camera is your better choice. You have to find a way to hide the wires in a mini wire camera, while a mini wireless camera can be hidden anywhere.

There are two different types of wireless security cameras. Some come with an installation kit, and some are similar to an IP camera.

The first type of camera comes usually as part of a package with a transmitter and a receiver. This type of camera works much like a regular TV camera. In this case the transmitter and the receiver replace the regular TV cable. The camera connects to the transmitter while the receiver connects to the recording device. That way the transmitter can be received and viewed from the camera.

The second type works somewhat like an IP camera. This type of camera is also easier to use then the first type. These cameras have a network adapter that connects to a router or a switch. They can be accessed from any computer in the world, but are also more expensive.

When choosing between a wired or wireless camera, the better choice would be a wireless one. They are easier to use, and are also easier to place and hide. You wont have to deal with the wires, and overall will have better security.

These days home security and DIY CCTV is a huge industry. Home and small business owners are discovering the advantages and piece of mind that CCTV can bring. Constant leaps in technology means affordable home security is now available to everyone.

Statistics have shown large reductions in the amount of crime being committed where cameras have been installed. An article in ‘New Scientist’ magazine showed that simply installing a home security CCTV system can reduce crime by over 95%.

Customers inform us that they are having similar results in all types of business; you will begin to appreciate why CCTV is seen by many as the best system for deterrent and detection.

Crooks are simply less likely to attack a property with some sort of security deterrent, especially a security camera.

Welcome to our site where we try to cut out the needless technical talk and let you in on the simple facts, top tips and relevant choices that you will have to make when selecting the correct home security CCTV solution that is best for you.

Here you will learn the best configuration for your home security CCTV environment and we will explain it in half the time it takes the competition too!

This really is great, free, quick and easy advice which you wont find anywhere else without having to spend a chunk of money!

So lets get started!

IP or traditional cameras?

The IP home security CCTV market is developing rapidly but is an extremely costly route. For the home market the traditional cameras are perfect with an unlimited life span and much easier on the bank balance!

Wired or Wireless?

Are you able to run wires around your premises for your home security CCTV setup or does it need to be wireless? Remember even if it is wireless, you will still need power for the camera from a local power supply.

Also there are possible interference problems when going down the wireless route.

Do I need infrared?

If you want to see clearly in black and white at night then yes you should opt for a camera that has infrared. Without it your cameras will only be good for daylight use.

CAT5 cables or Coaxial?

You can run the traditional Coaxial cable to power and process the signal to the cameras throughout your home security CCTV setup.

However due to transformers that are required to power each camera unit, we always recommend the CAT5 route with some clever little converters that do away with all the power supply hassles!

Indoor cameras or outdoors?

Outside gets a little more expensive but the small additional costs are worth covering your external entry points to the premises. The deterrent factor alone is a worthwhile bonus from installing external cameras.

What DVR?

This is basically the unit that records all the footage from the cameras that you can view at any time.

How much do you need to record? 30 days non stop? Less or more you need to decide to make your choice capacity wise on what size of Hard Drive you will need to buy to run in the DVR.

Constant recording or motion detection?

Do you want to see everything the cameras see throughout the day and night or would you prefer them to be set on motion detection so they record only what moves past them. Motion detection allows for greatly increased recording capacity on the DVR.

For example if the your front door camera was set up correctly with the motion detection setting, you would only see who had come to your front door throughout the day with out having to manually wind the DVR forward.

How do I backup my Footage?

The recordings can just tape over the old footage after 30 days or so or you may want to back them up to CD, network PC or USB. These choices will all affect the budget for your home security CCTV system.
