The Camera (Agent) is one of the methods for connecting to cloud video surveillance services. The availability of this device type depends on the video surveillance provider and the system configuration and deployment scenario.
The Camera (Agent) provides a fast and self-service way to connect to video surveillance services. Users can integrate their Camera (Agent) devices into the cloud video surveillance platform independently. All stages – from camera setup to management – are performed through the video surveillance web interface without the need to contact technical specialists.
This approach provides flexible video surveillance management: users can add and remove cameras, configure recording and storage settings, receive event notifications, and view archived footage. In addition, dedicated mobile applications, web interfaces, and desktop clients provide convenient access to live video and archives, as well as management of connected cameras and their settings from any device. This provides complete control over the video surveillance system.
