For many of us, the days of the full time farm job are gone. We go to the day job and leave unattended a wealth of equipment and personal belongings. As I put together this page, I find it hard to make it cover all the bases. With our Law Enforcement background, we understand all too well the flexibility necessary for security based video recording. With this said, we have below listed some bundled choices. If what you see doesn't fit your need, or you are not sure what you need, give us a call. We'll offer a no sales pitch approach to what you can do. Again, as it is geared at livestock video monitoring, this site in no way lists all of your security camera options. Whether you simply need to turn your barn camera onto the driveway 11 months a year and record, or you're looking for a 16 camera infrared system on a stand alone Digital Video Recorder with motion sensing and remote access, we can help. Riverwind’s weatherproof cameras have been researched, tested and used in some of the toughest environments for more than a decade. With a full line of DVR's, software and knowledge, it becomes the perfect choice for farm security.
Recording a camera to a computer is easy and affordable. With today’s home computers equipped to handle video processing storage the days of time lapse VCR’s and expensive digital video recording systems are gone. A simple home computer using a USB capture device now allows you to;
- Record from 1 to 16 computers onto your computers hard drive
- Recording can be continuous or triggered by motion
- Monitor for motion in a specific area of the picture such as a driveway or doorway eliminating motion recording in other areas
- Motion sensitivity allows you to filter out unwanted recordings such as birds or slow moving clouds
- Search recorded video with ease. No rewinding, just click the time frame and view
- Receive notification via email or text message when the computer senses motion
- Log on remotely from another computer to view live or see what was recorded. This is a password protected log on, not open for the world to see
