Video surveillance was, at one time, static with analogy cameras that sent the video to VCRs or DVRs. Operators could go back in time and look for perpetrators after a crime occurred. Today, digital cameras can stream images that you have access to in real-time from anywhere in the world, as long as you have an internet connection.

Video surveillance cameras have also grown smart, utilizing artificial intelligence to recognize thieves and detect when something out of the ordinary occurs. But, of course, not all video surveillance equipment is created equal. 

At Circle Industries, we’ve been protecting businesses, schools, government buildings, and homes in Padre Island, TX, and the Rio Grande Valley since 1947. Since that time, we’ve witnessed the transformation of commercial security systems, partnering with those that continue to advance and offer the latest industry-leading technology in video surveillance. Arecont Vision Costar is one of those companies.

Arecont Vision Costar

Costar acquired Arecont Vision in 2018. Together, they offer complete video surveillance solutions to their clients worldwide and the widest range of megapixel cameras made in the U.S. Their Total Surveillance Solution enables all systems to integrate and work together, creating the ultimate in security. 

Cloud-Enabled Video Management

Their cloud-based centralized management system records locally and exports the video to the cloud. Users can connect from anywhere via their smartphone, tablet, or laptop.

Advanced Megapixel Cameras

Since its beginnings, the company has focused on creating the best megapixel HD security cameras on the global market. In 2004, they came out with the first two-megapixel IP network camera and, two years later, the first multi-sensor camera. 

One of their SurroundVideo Omni cameras can often replace multiple single-sensor cameras. For example, an area that commonly requires several pan-tilt-zoom cameras can be covered with a single multi-sensor camera. We install these cameras for 360-degree views in parking lots and hallway intersections. Should a security event occur, you know your camera will catch it and won’t be facing the wrong direction and miss the incident. 

One of their advanced features is their on-camera analytics. These analytics are triggered when someone crosses over a pre-established boundary, loiters, or tries to enter the facility. They can also detect if a specific object is removed or left on the premises and count the number of people and vehicles on site. When triggered, an alarm immediately notifies operators. 

Their small size, at just over 3-inches high, also offers discrete surveillance. The remote focus is controlled through the camera webpage, delivering high-definition, crystal-clear images. Four lens sensors can also be controlled remotely, enabling users to pan, tilt, focus, and zoom and then save custom preset configurations. In addition, smart Infrared and NightView allow viewers to see what’s happening in the darkest night and up to 66-feet away.
