ZoneMinder CCTV Camera Monitoring Software
ZoneMinder is a set of applications intended for use in CCTV video camera security applications. It supports capture, analyse, recording and monitoring of any cameras you have attached to a Linux based machine. It also features a user-friendly Web interface which allows viewing, archival, review, and deletion of images and movies captured by the cameras.
ZoneMinder has a highly configuratble image analysis system permitting retention of specific events, while eliminating false positives. ZoneMinder supports both directly connected and network cameras and is built around the definition of a set of individual 'zones' of varying sensitivity and functionality for each camera.
This allows the elimination of regions which should be ignored or the definition of areas which will alarm if various thresholds are exceeded in conjunction with other zones. All management, control, and other functions are supported through the Web interface.
ZoneMinder is designed to run on kernels which support the Video For Linux (V4L) interface and has been tested with cameras attached to BTTV cards, various USB cameras and IP network cameras. It is designed to support as many cameras as you can attach to your computer without too much degradation of performance.
