Civil Security Count-down, 4 Hotspots to Consider
With the development of Internet and the consciousness of security from citizens, the civil security and protection products are getting more and more popular with families, residence community, and various stores and shops. Among them, cctv surveillance products are the most accepted and used. Some experts estimate that civil cctv surveillance products have become one of the most potential market in security industry.
1. Low cost. Undoubtedly, civil security engineering market is different from big projects by government and enterprise. The user’s purchasing power is of the most importance. Mr. Miao, manager of Beijing Zhongfa Electronics, said, ‘at the moment we mainly do some small projects like cctv surveillance systems in hotels, stores, etc. These projects cost as much as tens of thousands, and as little as several thousand. The users don’t care about brands, as long as their basic requirements can be met.’ The reporters found different levels of cameras in his store with various prices. It is true that security in itself can not produce economic profits, so most of the common users will use the most basic standards—usable. For them, appropriate price is more important than brand. Too high price will on the other hand stop the consumers.
2. Simple operation. For most security end users, they know little about security and surveillance. Complicated operation will become a barrier for them to use security products. Furthermore, computers have become so common nowadays that security products are required to be as compatible as possible with the already existing IT products. Therefore, civil security products should be consistent with the common IT products whether in user interface or operation habits so that the users can quickly catch up.
3. Smart outlook. As civil security products are used at home, many users will hope the outlook can be more beautiful and elegant, with more options of colours, and better more harmonious with the existing decoration style.
4. Data safety guarantee. Statistics show that many end users are doubtful about the data safety of civil security products. So to set their minds at rest, producers should think hard. On the other hand, civil security products are basically used when nobody is around. If the system cannot alarm in time or the alarm data cannot be sent out, the installation of security systems will be useless.
Of course, the development of civil security market can not go without the mutual promotion among manufacturers, contractors, and end users. The product value is decided by end users while the promotion of products must be supported by technology. Civil security products have two major effects, one for life safety, the other for property antitheft. In the future we hope more practical technology will come up for the civil security and surveillance applications.
