Construction Security Camera Helps Contractors Fight Theft and Vandalism

iBEAM iWitness records high-resolution video, lets users watch their job sites live, and documents entire project in photos and time-lapse movies.

Boise, ID (PRWEB) June 11, 2009 -- Theft and vandalism on construction sites is a billion-dollar problem that affects 95% of contractors every year. In response to demand from builders and project owners, iBEAM Systems, Inc. announces a new addition to its line of rugged construction cameras (http://www.ibeamsystems.com/ourproducts): iBEAM iWitness Construction Security Camera.

"Thieves don't want to be caught on video. Combine that with the evidence to catch and prosecute criminals, and it's easy to see why surveillance cameras are key part of a successful job site security plan," says Tom Allen, AIA, president of iBEAM Systems.

Traditional security camera systems are designed for already-built environments and give disappointing results in construction settings. High costs, complicated installation, and poor image quality have prevented many contractors from utilizing cameras at their job sites.

The iBEAM iWitness Construction Security camera (http://www.ibeamsystems.com/iwitness) records video around the clock at nine times the resolution of standard security cameras. Users can remotely view live activity at the job site any time, day or night. Superior optics and an automatic day/night mode ensure crisp images under the harshest conditions.

"Contractors have asked for an easy way to record video of their job sites. iBEAM iWitness does this and more - at a price 90% lower than a security guard," says Sara Harris, New Project Coordinator for iBEAM Systems.

Solar power, wireless, and cellular communication are available for this camera. Like all iBEAM Construction Cameras, iBEAM iWitness is pre-programmed for easy, plug-and-play installation.
