Closed-circuit television (CCTV), a type of video surveillance, is a digital system that can be used in any setting. Images and videos are captured by surveillance technology, which also compresses them for easier storage and monitoring. It sends signals from cameras to receivers via cables, phone connections, or digital data networks using a television system. High-definition cameras with facial recognition are used extensively to prevent theft and are used for traffic monitoring, event surveillance, vandalism prevention, remote monitoring, and facility protection. Video surveillance, particularly CCTV, is used in public spaces, business buildings, and industrial areas. It provides real-time monitoring and uses analysed video data to inform security measures.
Saudi Arabia Video Surveillance Market Driving Factors and Challenges
Driving Factors- The market for video surveillance in Saudi Arabia is expected to be driven by government mandates and security concerns. Due mainly to growing security concerns, the Saudi Arabian market for video surveillance is seeing a significant upsurge. The need for video surveillance systems has increased as a result of these worries, which apply to both public and private areas. The importance of monitoring technology in enhancing security and averting unanticipated incidents is becoming more widely acknowledged by organisations, governmental bodies, and people. As a consequence, the Saudi Arabian government has been incorporating the monitoring of any illegal behaviour in the nation into the legislation governing video surveillance. In the year 2022, for example, the Council of Ministers in Saudi Arabia passed a new law requiring all public spaces like hotels, homes, sports clubs, and stadiums to have surveillance systems installed.
Challenges
High Total Cost of Ownership and Initial Investment: Many Saudi Arabian organisations find it extremely difficult to enter the market due to the high initial costs associated with implementing sophisticated video surveillance systems, which include hardware, software, installation, and maintenance. Furthermore, over the course of the system's lifetime, the total cost of ownership (TCO), which includes continuous maintenance, upgrades, and operational charges, can be significant. The cost of investing in complete surveillance systems may discourage small and medium-sized organisations (SMEs) and entities with limited budgets, hence restricting market growth and adoption rates.
Impact of COVID-19 on Saudi Arabia Video Surveillance Market
The COVID-19 epidemic has heightened need for surveillance industry enhancement due to security concerns and social distancing norms for the benefit of public safety. However, this resulted in more innovation and improved video surveillance devices capable of real-time monitoring and data analysis. Increased demand for healthcare cameras as a result of remote patient monitoring and staff shortages has contributed to the industry's growing market domination.
