Comprehensive Security for NIH Narela with Impulse CCTV’s Advanced Surveillance Solution
The National Institute of Homeopathy (NIH) in Narela, a prestigious educational and healthcare institution, sought to upgrade its campus security system to ensure the safety of students, faculty, and patients. Given the open layout of the campus and the necessity for 24/7 monitoring across multiple facilities, NIH needed a high-resolution, reliable surveillance system to cover expansive outdoor areas as well as essential indoor zones.
Impulse CCTV was selected to design and implement a custom solution to meet the diverse security requirements of NIH’s large campus, emphasizing flexibility, scalability, and ease of use.
Challenges
- Large Campus Coverage: NIH’s campus includes multiple academic buildings, patient wards, and administrative areas. Coverage was essential for both outdoor spaces and high-priority indoor zones.
- Round-the-Clock Surveillance: With students, staff, and patients on campus at all hours, the system needed continuous monitoring capabilities, day and night.
- Durable Outdoor Monitoring: Outdoor cameras had to withstand challenging environmental conditions, including dust, rain, and heat, while maintaining high video quality.
- High-Definition Recording with Zoom Capabilities: Cameras needed to capture high-resolution video and support zoom for closer monitoring of activities and identification of individuals when required.
Solution
Impulse CCTV provided a comprehensive solution with two types of cameras tailored to NIH’s security needs:
Dome Camera
The dome cameras were installed in high-priority indoor areas such as hallways, entry points, and sensitive zones near administrative offices and medical facilities. The features of the dome cameras included:
- 5MP resolution for high-definition video, capturing clear, detailed footage across the premises.
- Zoom-in and zoom-out capability for focusing on key areas to provide closer views where needed.
- Infrared night vision to maintain clear visibility in low-light and nighttime conditions.
- Weatherproof and vandal-resistant design for reliable performance, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments where they might be exposed to tampering.
Bullet Camera
Bullet cameras were positioned outdoors, covering campus entrances, parking lots, and building exteriors. Key features of these cameras included:
- Varifocal lens with adjustable zoom to focus on particular areas, providing clear and detailed footage.
- 5MP resolution for high-quality video capture.
- Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) for managing challenging lighting conditions, such as backlit areas, to produce balanced footage.
- Robust outdoor design to ensure reliability in harsh weather conditions, ensuring consistent monitoring in outdoor spaces.
Implementation
Impulse CCTV collaborated with the NIH security team to strategically place cameras across the campus. The outdoor bullet cameras were positioned to monitor perimeters and entrances, while dome cameras covered indoor corridors and critical locations. The installation was seamless, with minimal disruption to daily campus activities, and Impulse CCTV provided training for the security team on system operations and data access.
Results
- Comprehensive Campus Coverage: Strategically placed cameras ensured thorough surveillance of all essential indoor and outdoor areas on campus.
- Enhanced Night-Time Security: The infrared night vision on both camera types significantly improved night-time visibility, particularly in previously under-monitored outdoor areas.
- Clear High-Definition Monitoring: The 5MP resolution cameras delivered crisp, detailed footage, allowing real-time monitoring and efficient incident investigation.
- Efficient Video Management: The scalable storage and high-definition recording provided NIH with an efficient video management system, with easy access to archived footage for review and reporting.
- Weatherproof and Reliable Performance: The durable, weather-resistant cameras continued to perform effectively despite challenging outdoor conditions, maintaining uninterrupted perimeter monitoring.
Conclusion
Through the deployment of Impulse CCTV’s advanced surveillance solutions, the National Institute of Homeopathy now benefits from a robust and comprehensive security system. The combination of high-resolution dome and bullet cameras has enhanced overall campus safety, improved visibility, and streamlined incident response. Impulse CCTV’s resilient cameras and versatile system have enabled NIH to provide a secure environment for its students, staff, and patients, safeguarding its vital facilities and resources.
