IP Camera is a new generation camera that combines traditional cameras with network technology. It not only has all the image capture functions of traditional cameras but also has a digital compression controller and a web-based operating system built into its body. This allows video data, after being compressed and encrypted, to be transmitted to end users through local area networks, the Internet, or wireless networks. Remote users can use a standard web browser on their PC to access the IP camera based on its IP address, monitor the situation of the target site in real-time, edit and store image data in real-time, and even control the camera's pan tilt and lens for all-around monitoring.

With its advantages of high definition, remote access, and wide adaptability to various environments, IP cameras have been widely used in various fields such as security, education, medical care, and transportation, bringing great convenience to people's lives and work.
