• 4-channel: This system is the 4-channel CCTV, which is perfect for you if your surveillance needs are small. With a maximum of four cameras, it offers basic monitoring needs suitable for installation in homes or small offices. Very cost-effective, with easy installation, this system is well known among residential users. As the public obtains knowledge about home security, the demand for 4 channels will be at a steady level.

• 8-channel: This 8-channel CCTV system provides vast coverage and exists in most medium businesses and in larger homes. This allows simultaneous observation for several entry points or in several rooms in the same setting. Most of these systems are equipped with advanced features like vision at night and remote access. The 8-channel setup is gaining market traction as the security problems arise, and the need for scalability is necessary.

• 16 Channel: Designed for large-scale surveillance, the 16-channel CCTV systems are ideal for work in commercial complexes, warehouses, and institutions. They cover large areas with high efficiency, providing several camera angles for monitoring. Often, these systems are also integrated with advanced features such as motion detection, AI-enabled functions, and centralized services. The demand for 16-channel systems is growing with the rise of smart buildings and integrated networks of security.

By Application

Based on Application, the global market can be categorized into Residential Use, Commercial Use, Public & Government Infrastructure

• Residential application: CCTV installation has gained rapid popularity recently, as home safety and theft prevention have become major concerns. Smart cameras with remote access, motion alerts, and two-way communication features are now at the forefront of homeowners' decisions to invest in them. Also, wireless systems are generally easier to install and cheaper, which has seen increased adoption. The integration of CCTV into a smart home ecosystem has been a huge selling factor for the modern appeal, making it part of contemporary residential security.

• Commercial application: In commercial applications, CCTV cameras monitor employees at the work area, prevent theft, and ensure the safety of employees at work. AI-enabled cameras with real-time analytics and facial recognition are highly preferred by corporates. These are advanced high-definition systems and cloud-based systems with multi-site capabilities while allowing for centralized monitoring. Nevertheless, commercial manufacturing of CCTV systems continues to be booming, with the retail, hotel, and corporate industries scaling.

• Public & Government Infrastructure: CCTV systems are used by various levels of the government to monitor traffic flow, crime prevention, or the maintenance of public order. This takes the form of building infrastructures with capacity, like airports, railways, and city surveillance networks, with high-capacity camera integrations and artificial intelligence. Oftentimes, such systems fall under larger smart city initiatives dedicated to uplifting public safety. Increases in investments in public surveillance have thus amounted to one of the strongest market segments for CCTV.

MARKET DYNAMICS
