Video Surveillance Cameras Knowledge Base
If an accident is caught on video surveillance is that considered absolute evidence? I was exiting a parking garage on campus when the automated gate fell on top of my new Toyota corolla. When I got home I found that the roof was scratched up bad. I called the campus security office and when I told them what happened they told me that because I didn’t file a police report right then the parking garage couldn’t be held liable. When I asked if the video surveillance cameras could be use to prove the fact they told me "they're not big on that" what rights do I have here?
Is video surveillance camera technology stable? Strange question but I want to buy a video camera detector. Even stranger huh... I found out about these devices recently. It is a device that detects wireless video cameras that are monitoring you like in elevators, gas stations, banks and (I want to find out where else). These detectors have a video display [cool] and actually show you the vision of the surveillance cameras so you can find out where they are mounted. The trouble is, these detectors cost about 500 bucks so if the frequency range of the wireless monitors changes the detector will be obsolete and worthless. NOTE> This is not going to be used for terrorist activity so don't go thinking you will be a hero to report me to the feds. You may wonder why i would want such a toy but i am just extremely curious who is watching me and then i might wonder why. I remember speaking freely at gas station pumps and the cashier would be listening in on the conversation which i do think is totally illegal to do if not related to gas.

In Ohio, is it illegal to have video cameras in order to catch trespassers or anyone breaking the law? I have "the neighbors from hell"! I have a house with a "through" driveway. My neighbors have decided that this driveway is theirs also..even though I have shown them on the city's plot map that it is mine and only mine. In the beginning, I didn't mind them using it. But, then she started a child care business, to which she watched around 10 to 14 kids at any given time. With that many children being dropped off and picked up, there are bound to be problems. I can't count how many times I could not get out of my own driveway due to it being blocked by my neighbor. It even got so bad that there was a "major" traffic jam on my driveway...seriously!!!...then a fight..because nobody would move. The police have been called and informed me that it was a civil matter. I retained a lawyer and he said I should purchase surveillance cameras and get all this activity on film. I was also told to either tell my neighbors or post signs saying that videotaping was going on. Can anyone help

How can I obtain a surveillance video of outside cameras from a police station? Is it public records? My ex husband has been following me when I left my house for days. It was night time around 11pm. This day I decided to drive to the police station. I pulled up at a police station public parking lot adjacent to a camera. My ex got out his vehicle and before I knew it, we were in a physical altercation. He grabbed me and puled me away from my vehicle; started banging on my windows to get my friend out of the vehicle as the police unit was driving up. A gave the police my statement and a report was made. My ex is friends and is known throughout the law enforcement community. I went to pick up a report the next day; to my suprise the report was a misrepresentation of what occured at the parking lot. Nothing was mentioned about what occured in the parking lot. I called the police station and spoke with the assistant chief for obtaining a copy of the surveliance video. The assistant chief said the video was not public record and won't be made available for me. How can I get a copy?

Google Search Remote Surveillance Camera Hyperlink? Hello, In the past (probably over a year ago), I came across an interesting article that dealt with remote surveillance / video cameras. I believe the discussion was limited to a certain brand/model and all of the links (to monitor/control the camera) had identical link URL's with the exception of an ID (or something of the sort) at the end. No passwords or anything, simply google search for the beginning of the URL string and thousands of these feeds would come up. Many were from around the world, the cameras can be controlled with a panel that appeared on the page. That's about as much as I can remember to describe it. If anyone knows the original article or the link that it provided, I would much appreciate it. Thanks!

Video Surveillance? My home has recently been broken into twice in the last 2 weeks but nothing was taken. The first time it happened the only reason I knew was because my dog was outside and the 2nd time it happened while I was acually at home. My one vehicle is broke down and sitting at work and so I'm sure that who ever it was thought I was gone because my car was not there. The thing of it is I think it's acually my neighbor because other people have said that they have caught her in their house. I want to try and video tape her (assuming it's her) but need some advice on an inexpensive way to do it. Who ever it is comes through the patio door and all I need to do is put a marble in the door so that if the door is opened the marble will be moved and I know someones been in my house. I initially looked at buying some type of motion activated camera but can not afford that - Please does anyone have any ideas on how I can catch this person

Is it legal to put surveillance cameras...? I have some friends that work at a hair salon that was just purchased by new owners. These new people are freaks.. to say the least. They trust no one. Anyway, they put up 7 smoke detectors in the salon, 7! Its not that big of a place. Alot of the girls think they are actually video cameras that look like smoke detectors. ( these were shown on a news show not too long ago) Is it legal to "spy" on people without them knowing. I can see a surveillance camera around where the cash register or retail is, but they put them in the pedicure room, break room, etc. the reason this was brought to someones attention is that the owner commented on how my friend really works hard and makes sure the towel drawers are shut and little things like that. The owner is never there when she is, and was wondering how she "knew" that. They dont know if they have mics on them or not, or if they ARE indeed cameras. Is it possible to check? I wouldnt think it would be legal to put them in a room where a private service is being performed IE: pedicure. Thanks to any lawyers or police officers that may have knowledge.
Why surveillance? Almost every website, every online company, and even some blogsites have a signup process in which you are often required to give personally identifiable information or else you can not use their services. Even just visiting websites transmits to that website's server your ip address and other potentially identifiable information, depending on what 'cookies' that website transmits to your computer. Even out in the real world, unless you are using cash all the time, every transaction you make with your credit card or bank card transmits personally identifiable information to that company's database. Just walking around in public places will have your face on any number of video surveillance cameras in stores, shopping centers, trainstations, etc.. There is even a global surveillance computer network called ECHELON which can scan phone conversations, e-mails, and any form of digital communication for certain keywords / information. My question is: why all this surveillance?
Is legal for my next door neighbour to perform concealed video surveillance? we are living in a duplex, but we have a shared backyard with separate entrances. The other day he concealed a webcamera behind the window of the bathroom facing our entrance to the backyard, where we usually spend time drinking tea, beer and just talking. A spare beach umbrella was used to close the view of the camera and the recording. On the next day, the neighbour covertly mounted a webcam already outside the house, on a bbq grill, half closed with towels. But i see there is a wire coming to the grill and a microsoft logo from between the towels. You know, i feel so embarrassed that my private life is under surveillance of a probable pervert or maniac. Can i call the cops in this case? I have heard that if the camera is installed in his part of the house, i cannot do anything, but if it's on a shared backyard, it should be labelled with "...under video surrveillance..." what should i do? thank you

What type of surveillance camera would be best suited for the entrance to my gated community? Our gated community needs a surveillance camera. Our gate was hit and broken two times, but we have been unable to determine who did it (probably am impatient driver). If we had a camera that could capture video for 24-48 hours (and then recycle), we could determine who is responsible for future incidents. Since there is only one entrance to the community (besides climbing over fences), this would also be a deterrent to criminals entering the community. There is a light pole with electricity near the entrance to the community, so power and view plane issues are not a problem. We just need to be sure the resolution of the images is sufficient to capture faily good images (license plate numbers, etc). This is Altanta, so severe weather is also not an issue. Finally, we are a small gated community, so we cannot afford very expensive options. Reliable, inexpensive solutions are preferred over high cost, high-tech solutions.
