The IR Domehawk security camera features built-in infra-red and 160Gb DVR with capability of full 360 degree pan and tilt night vision at ranges up to 100 metres. 

It will enable Fylde borough council to monitor both areas with light and without lights around the clock and reduce the incidence of anti-social behaviour in parks, graveyards and other troublespots.

Man caught on CCTV camera that shot family and pets before torching mansion

Christopher Foster murdered his wife and daughter before torching his £1.2m mansion and then killing himself.

CCTV camera footage recovered from the house shows Christopher Foster calmly walking across the yard with his .22 calibre rifle in his hand as two outhouses burn in the background. By that time he had already murdered his wife and daughter and shot dead their three horses and dogs, before setting fire to the garage and stable and another outhouse.

He was also filmed driving a horsebox, which he parks in the front of the main gate of his mansion. The CCTV footage includes him getting out of the car with rifle in his hand and bursting two tyres before entering the main building.

Police say Mr Foster then went inside the main building, boarded the windows and doors, and set fire to it. Shortly after this, he turned the gun on himself.

CCTV Camera to “hear” and capture

How about a CCTV Camera with “Ears”? British scientists are developing a technology that facilitates a CCTV camera to “hear” a crime happening and turn around to capture the event.

The researchers are working on software that can recognise sounds such as breaking glass, shouting or crowds gathering, and prompt a CCTV Camera to swing towards the noise in 300 milliseconds – the same time it would take a person to turn their head if they heard someone scream. The software may eventually be able to identify words that suggest a crime is being committed.
