WAREHOUSE CCTV

 


In a warehouse CCTV is common, but the main requirement of CCTV is at the loading bay.


Mainly a CCTV records a video. For Ex a materials send to a place and after unloading the customer complain that some shortage in the same.


If the container seal is ok then the question arise ?


Check the video on both end, a quality pic already recoded at the time of loading and unloading will clear all the doubts.


In modern mechanism , a cctv can be used as alarm


For Ex

1. Driver maintaining safety protocol or not

2. Vehicle condition

3. Theft & pilferage etc.

4. No of person present

5. Picking is done properly or not

6. Night vision also hep to work in low light.


A company can have warehouse at various place and operating 24 x 7 .


Its not possible to monitor through out the day but the alarm will suffice.
