How about the cost and effectiveness of seven plus cameras in one single unit ? That’s what a 360 degree view camera can do for you.
Placed in the middle of a room on the ceiling, these single lens cameras record a 360 degree viewing area with a hemispheric fisheye lens. Then, with recording software, you can actually break up the image into individual outlooks so they look like multiple cameras. They are IP based and bring that same level of flexibility that all network cameras do: viewing from anywhere, viewing from multiple devices, network storage, etc.
That’s one camera, complete view, doing the work of multiple cameras, depending on ceiling height and room angles. These would work best in restaurants and retail stores, or other open space formats. The cameras can be costly with top models ranging from approximately $600 to $1400. But, since it can take the place of multiple cameras, with multiple cable runs, lengthy installation times, could be considerably cheaper for the business owner.
