As a crucial place to keep the goods and materials, the Warehouse's monitoring is becoming more and more important. Although probably the video system was ready working over there, but generally when the part of property lost, you can not find any clues from footage because of the terrible image quality.
Meanwhile,it's a big headache when you search if from the hard disk, it probably cost several hours to pull out one 10 seconds "blurred" evidence. ( we really need more advanced technology to streamline the process).
Regarding the installed cameras, maybe they can't cover all blind spots because of the high shelves, and if you put the low performance ones into some harsh condition, like the corners, the gate, the situation may be more horrible, it produce unclear and over-exposure images all the time without low light or WDR features.
We can't accept the same things happening in 2026. The latest solution would be the key.
What types of camera and installation spot you have to confirm
Receiving & Shipping Area
It requires recording every tracking number, goods appearance and handling process. In this case,a 4K Ultra HD imaging camera is a unique choice. Put it to the operation platform to recorder every detailed by high resolution.
Aisle of Shelf
Record the delivery of goods ,in and out, to avoid the random lost, mount several cameras along with the shelf to keep away from the block of higher shelf, meanwhile cover all aisles'
Entry & Exit
Basically we have to know who and what vehicles come in/out every day. It's the key factor to select the full-color or dual-light cameras to record more details day and night. It would be strong evidence while any exceptional events happen.
How to determine the scale of security camera system
| Warehouse Size | Recommended System | Optimal Configuration |
|---|---|---|
| Less than 1000 sqft | 8ch Security Camera System | 2TB-4TB Hard Disk |
| 1000–3000 sq ft | 16ch System | 8TB-10TB Hard Disk |
The highlighted technical features are as follows:
In general, the system keeps running 24*7, and requires a long retention time, such as 1-2 months. In this case, 2TB-4TB for small scale, 8TB-10TB for middle scale would be optimal configuration
To compare to H.264, H.265 is more effective to save storage space and transmission bandwidth while retain the same image quality. Please enable it if available.
It's a huge project to locate the accurate seconds from a large number of recordings if it's a traditional system. Thanks to AI engines and algorithms, it simplifies the search of concerned events.
The security camera system rely on the local / private network, so it won't be affected by the internet completely. In other words, it never misses one second.
POE simplifies the installation significantly. Based on the wiring connection, it's able to transfer high definition 4K streaming.
The camera is capable of anti-temper and working under horrible environment, no body like the frequent maintenance.
