Remote surveillance, in its most basic form, refers to the monitoring of individuals, places, or objects from a distance. This concept has been around for decades, evolving from simple closed-circuit television (CCTV) systems to sophisticated IP camera networks accessible via the internet. The shift towards IP-based surveillance systems has expanded the capabilities of remote monitoring, allowing users to access live feeds from anywhere in the world, provided they have an internet connection.
