Brief introduction What is IP Camera

IP Camera (network camera) is a device that combines traditional camera technology with network capabilities, allowing the transmission of video, audio, alarm, and control signals over a network. It typically consists of components such as a lens, image sensor, sound sensor, signal processor, A/D converter, encoding chip, main control chip, network, and control interfaces. The main functions of an IP Camera include:

- Audio and Video Encoding: Capturing and encoding/compressing video and audio signals.
- Network Transmission: Transmitting the encoded audio and video signals to the surveillance system via wired or wireless networks.
- Remote Access: Users can access and monitor video from any remote location using a standard web browser.

IP Cameras are widely used in various settings such as homes, businesses, and industries for purposes like security surveillance and remote management.
