Overview
The security market is very broad, diverse, and ever growing. The
product variety ranges from simple articles as door locks to high-tech
network systems controlling sensors, locks, and surveillance cameras.
Prices for residential security systems cover a whole spectrum ranging
from the tens to the thousands of dollars.
A complete and practical home security system contains video cameras,
an alarm system, network access, and intelligent circuitry. Depending
on the complexity of a system, a home security system can be connected
to home networks by either using powerlines, phonelines, Ethernet,
IEEE 1394, USB, or wireless technologies. Home security usually
includes a camera and microphone to provide security from intruders.
Security cameras at the door or in your backyard and front yard
protect the home from strangers. It allows you to monitor visitors
at your door step. Home security systems will also be networked
to other appliances in the home. This allows you to watch your home
over the Internet while you are at work or vacationing.
