CCTV Installers & CCTV Systems Coventry – Clear Sound Security

Clear Sound Security CCTV Systems use the Home Office Development Branch recommendations to identify the requirements of a CCTV installation using five main categories:

Monitor
A figure should typically occupy a minimum of 80 mm per pixel. An observer should be able to monitor the number, direction and speed of movement of people across a wide area.

Detect
A figure should typically occupy a minimum of 40 mm per pixel. When alerted, an observer should be able to search the display screens and ascertain whether a person is present or not.

Observe
A figure should typically occupy a minimum of 16 mm per pixel. An observer should be able to see some characteristic details of the individual, such as distinctive clothing, whilst the view remains sufficiently wide enough to allow activity surrounding an incident to be monitored.

Recognise
A figure should typically occupy a minimum of 8 mm per pixel. At this level of detail, an observer should be able to say with a high degree of confidence whether or not an individual shown is the same as someone they have seen before.

Identify
A figure should typically occupy a minimum of 4 mm per pixel. Picture quality and detail should be sufficient to enable the identity of an individual to be established beyond reasonable doubt.

These guidelines, are always carefully considered by our CCTV Systems specialists when designing your CCTV installation, not only to ensure the customer fully understands what images will be achieved with each security camera, but also, along with the correct signage, to ensure full compliance with current regulations.

Your attention is drawn to the general data protection regulation (GDPR), BS7958, and the information commissioner’s office cctv code of practice. By law the customer may be responsible for registering your system with the information commissioners office.
