Last week, the British government introduced a new video monitoring regulations, IHS, according to the latest report events not video monitoring equipment market in Britain too much influence economic growth.
According to IHS (1) titled "closed circuit television and video monitoring equipment market of the world" report, the UK is an important export supplier of video surveillance equipment, is second only to China, the United States and Japan the world's fourth largest area of the market.
The new code of practice for the public areas in England and wales monitoring system provides guidelines for best practices. Compliance is voluntary, however, the failure code will not be forced or punishment.
"Expect the public area accounts for only a small percentage of the camera monitoring system, for the most part will be installed on the private property," IHS monitoring market analyst Josh Woodhouse said. "In addition, even for those equipment suppliers and engineering contractor working in public places, the practice of code won't cause too much concern. This is because they have been used to comply with more stringent supervision and legislation of other countries."
For example, some countries have strict data protection rules, allow the longest in a relatively short period of time to store video. Some countries have written warning, must show the nature of the video surveillance in that area.
Engineering installation flourished in the late 1990 s, at the beginning of the new millennium witnessed rapid growth in the number of surveillance cameras in the UK. According to the collected from suppliers modeling video monitoring equipment, replacement rate, as well as newly installed shipments data, IHS estimates 2012 British 4 million surveillance cameras installed. This is equivalent to a camera per 16 people.
IHS forecast, despite the current economic climate during the difficult times, but the video surveillance equipment markets will growth between 2013 and 2017. The newly installed the market will increase, but more growth will come from the new system for the replacement of existing is aging system.
"By hd compliance, wide dynamic range, and day/night functionality such features, the new system will improve the image quality," Woodhouse said. "Despite the large system has been installed, but the supplier should not ignore the region the opportunity of market continues to unfold."
