Most department stores, retailers and grocery stores have started to implement a system for customers to ‘price check’ items found in the store.

The demand for higher-level security has been the driving force for the populated installations of surveillance cameras in mission-critical environments, such as airports, banks, public transits, and state-owned institutions, and IP cameras are the preferred choice over conventional CCTV types due to ease of deployments. However, when there are saturated amount of IP cameras, there are perhaps billions of video data captured by these surveillance devices on a daily basis.
