CCTV
CCTV, or closed-circuit television, refers to a system of video cameras used for surveillance and security purposes. Unlike broadcast television, CCTV systems are designed to transmit video signals to a specific set of monitors or recording devices, making them ideal for monitoring activities in designated areas.
These systems are commonly employed in various settings, including public spaces, businesses, and private properties, to deter criminal activity, ensure safety, and provide evidence in case of incidents. Advances in technology have led to the development of high-definition cameras and sophisticated recording systems, enhancing the effectiveness of CCTV in providing clear and detailed footage.
While CCTV plays a crucial role in security and safety, it also raises important considerations regarding privacy and the balance between surveillance and individual rights.
