In the years after 9-11, airport and aircraft security was heightened to sky-high levels. Security cameras play a leading role in this war against terror.


  • Video Surveillance Cameras Make Your Car Road-Worthy
    [Automotive] Your vehicle darts along the road, continuing to speed faster and faster. You press on the brakes, and discover you've lost control over the vehicle's breaking system! Seconds later, you hit a wall. Proving Newton's law that "for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction," your head whips back against the headrest. The airbag, which ballooned on impact, cushions your head. With your cranium buried in the inflated airbag, you feel like a dummy, and that is precisely what you are - a crash test dummy. To optimize what they could learn from you, researchers had placed a video surveillance camera on the wall. Such cameras remain useful throughout the life of an automobile.


  • Ensure Safety with CCTV Security Systems
    [Computers-and-Technology] In this day and age, you can't be too complacent about the safety of your own home. Crime abounds everywhere, and even the seemingly safest areas are not spared. Crime prevention is a near impossible feat. However, crime detection leading to prosecution is not, thanks to CCTV security systems.


  • Foil Cheaters with CCTV Video Security
    [Computers-and-Technology] Cheating may not be an art form, but it is certainly as old as science itself. As early as the ancient Olympics, boxers already fixed their fights. In horse races in Victorian England, it is not uncommon for riders to throw the game away in exchange for a generous bribe. During the Song Dynasty in ancient China, scholars were patted down before taking civil service exams. Employers in Medieval England frequently suffered headaches constantly trying to prevent hired workers from cheating. But if you think cheating is any less rampant today compared to the old days, think again. Like arts, sciences, and bacteria, cheating has evolved. In fact, cheaters are still continually finding innovative ways to win without playing fair. Thanks to video security, however, cheaters will no longer always triumph in the end.


  • Mini Spy Camera - Smaller Can be Better
    [Computers-and-Technology] We buy mansions with rooms that we never enter. We buy SUVs that guzzle more fuel than an armored tank. We buy pizzas big enough for use as manhole covers. But if you think bigger is always better, think again.


  • Spy Video Cameras Bring 1984 Home
    [News-and-Society] Imagine a state where the government rules with an iron first. You can do and think as you please, so long as these actions and ideas do not go against policy or officially mandated doctrine. You are subjected to some twisted psychology, too. Not only are you brainwashed to obey the totalitarian government, you are taught to love it as well. Does this scenario seem unthinkable?


  • Seeing the Invisible with Infrared Cameras
    [Computers-and-Technology] Every day, cameras capture some of the most breathtaking sights on earth. The ripple of water as it cascades down cliffs, a fire engine-red rose in full bloom, a leaf floating on a puddle - these images are preserved in memory and in colored prints, thanks to cameras. The same cannot be said of infrared cameras, however.


  • Babysitting Nanny With Nanny Cams
    [Home-Improvement:Audio-Video] When we think of nannies, we remember Marry Poppins who glided down stairs and skies with her umbrella. We think of Nanny McPhee who, with a tap of her magic cane and a haughty raise of busy eyebrows, solved the problems of Cedric Brown and his seven naughty children. So the whole idea of using nanny cams might seem surreal or even absurd. Why would anyone need nanny cams? Nannies are caring, loving creatures. What harm could they possibly do to children?


  • Cruising Highways with Number Plate Sprays
    [Automotive] It's no superhero, and it doesn't have superpowers. But it's being touted by many as the super-answer to unfairly issued speeding and red-light tickets.

  • Prevent Theft by Breaking Into Your Own House
    [Home-Improvement:Security] "There is no security on earth," Douglas McArthur once wrote. "There is only opportunity." His words ring true. What for you is a rickety French window is a burglar's window of opportunity. What you see as a lovely, albeit a little fragile, antique door is a would-be robber's golden gate to riches.


  • Outdoor Security Cameras - Keeping Reality TV Larger Than Life
    [Home-Improvement:Security] Big Brother and Cheaters have one thing in common: an abundance of people who gossip and connive against each other. The two shows have another similarity, too: the presence of an army of cameras.


  • Protect Your Home One Fake Security Camera at a Time
    [Home-Improvement:Security] Imagine a typical night spent about town. You ate your favorite food at your favorite restaurant, caught a movie, bowled a few games, and then capped the evening's activities off with a walk in the park. Tired after such a frenetic round of activities, you go home. You unlock your door and gape at the state your house is in. It looks as if a tornado had blown through it. Your couch is in tatters; your papers are everywhere. Drawers lie open, and your home entertainment set has disappeared.


  • License Plate Spray - Method or Madness?
    [Computers-and-Technology] Photo enforcement has one message for reckless drivers: you can run, but you can't hide. No matter how quickly you race past a sensor, your license plate will be photographed and you'd eventually be on the receiving end of a $100 fine.


  • Beating Photo Radars
    [Computers-and-Technology] A photo radar is designed to photograph drivers who travel five to ten miles per hour over the speed limit. These photographs, along with particulars such as date, time, location, and vehicle speed, are then mailed to offenders.


  • What Is Nanny Up To?
    [Home-and-Family:Parenting] What is nanny up to? If this is a question you find yourself asking, then perhaps it's high time you purchase a nanny camera. Nanny cameras are wireless security cameras that let parents keep tabs on their children and the person looking after them. Because nanny cameras are wireless security cameras, they can be easily stashed in one corner of the room without catching the nanny's attention. In fact, many nanny cameras are designed to look like inconspicuous objects, such as wall clocks, teddy bears, cars, and plants.


  • Retail Intelligence - Improving Sales Through CCTV Systems
    [Business:Marketing] If you think security is the primary reason stores put up CCTV systems, think again. They are not there to watch shoplifters; they are there to count people.

Medical practitioners are now turning to technology to detect the presence of cancer cells and keep them from spreading; and what better way to spot the presence of cancer cells or ensure its complete removal than through infrared cameras?


  • Photo Enforcement - The Red-Light Stories Photos Tell
    [Automotive] Every year in the United States, more than 800 people are killed and more than 200,000 injured in accidents involving red light running. Of these casualties, many are passengers in other vehicles or are hapless pedestrians. Accidents engendered by red light running reach astonishing proportions, too, amounting to more than $150 billion in medical and emergency bills, productivity loss, and property destruction.


  • Improvements in Video Security - A Proactive Approach Towards Safer Travel
    [Travel-and-Leisure] Video security is as much a part of airports as planes and runways. It is unthinkable for an airport - any airport - not to have video security. In fact, in the wake of the events of 9/11, the video security of airports have undergone remarkable transformations.
