Efficient MxPEG video codec, motion detection based recording and video buffering inside camera guarantee a very low network load.

Compared to a centralized PC solution with video management software, the MOBOTIX storage concept offers the advantage of placing less burden on the network. After all, there's no need to transmit a continuous stream of camera frames to the centralized PC for analysis.

Instead, image processing and event control only occur in the cameras themselves, and they decide what to store. Therefore, the network is only occupied when events occur and during storage. What's more, storing the video images briefly in the camera enables it to bridge short network failures or fluctuations in bandwidth, which are a common occurrence in wireless connections, for instance.
