Preventing Injuries to People and Damage to Buildings

Safety and security have become top priorities for schools, colleges, and universities everywhere. In addition to metal detectors, many schools are installing security cameras to monitor activities within classrooms, lecture halls, residence facilities, and hallways, as well as outside campus buildings. Security camera problems for schools and campuses include

• Lack of detail in backlight, under fluorescent lights, or outdoors
• Low clarity in shadows, such as dark corridors
• Image wash-out in glare or with reflections from glass and metal
• Color inaccuracies in varying lighting conditions
• Low-quality DVR recordings
