Electronic Monitoring Surveillance Equipment

View:

There are many different varieties of surveillance equipment widely available for purchase. This equipment ranges from very small and movie-like (pens and lighters) to more practical (nanny cams and audio recorders). But no matter what type of surveillance equipment you use, there are some essential pieces of equipment that are practically indispensable.

The best surveillance equipment is the kind that helps you protect your home. Hidden cameras are the best for this kind of work. They help you keep track of your valuables, and they allow you to keep tabs on babysitters, nannies, and housekeepers. Additionally, when located on the outside of the home, they are ideal for alerting you to visitors, and identifying vandals.

Another very practical piece of surveillance equipment is a listening device of some sort. After all, even though you may be able to see what is going on, context is often lacking without audio to accompany what you are seeing. Even worse is when a visual cannot be established. In such a case having the audio portion can be very beneficial. It is important to make sure that the device of choice can be plugged into a recorder. Many are now compatible with digital recorders, and this can be very helpful in finding specific portions of the audio.

Night vision products are also a piece of surveillance equipment that can come in very handy. Whether you use goggles, monoculars, or binoculars, it is possible to see at night. This helps with surveillance in such a way that requires no moon and no stars. You surveillance does not have to be weather permitting when you are well equipped with surveillance equipment that allows you to see at night.

There is little doubt that surveillance equipment will continue to become more sophisticated. Keeping up with the top of the line listening devices and night vision products can help you stay in the know, and can help you maintain your professional reputation. Common sense use of surveillance equipment for the home can also be very helpful. It helps protect the home, and the people and valuables that are located inside it. Choosing the basics can help you protect yourself and your family using surveillance equipment.

Electronic Monitoring Surveillance Equipment

Electronic monitoring, also known as “house arrest" allows the convicted DUI offender to stay at home instead of being incarcerated in the county jail. There are many types of electronic monitoring devices. Some attach to the wrist, others to the ankle. Either the device will send a signal to a computer at the probation office or the manufacturer’s business. Another type of monitoring device involves equipment which is strapped to the DUI offender. Some programs require the DUI offender to respond to random phone calls to insure compliance with house arrest. Other programs involve the use of global positioning systems (GPS) which monitor the location of the defendant via satellite. The devices provide surveillance of the DUI offender’s presence within a certain vicinity of an assigned area, such as the home or workplace. Electronic monitoring may include the ability to work during the day, with the requirement that the DUI offender remain at home during the evening, which statistically reduces the likelihood of alcohol-impaired driving at night, which is when most DUI arrests occur.

Incarceration in the county jail is sometimes discretionary and sometimes a mandatory sentence for a DUI offense. The California Vehicle Code delineates the sentencing schemes for first-time and multiple DUI offenders. A first-time DUI offender is eligible to receive up to 6 months in the county jail, however no minimum jail time is required. On the other hand, multiple offenders, those who get another DUI within a ten year span from the prior DUI, are required to serve a mandatory period in the county jail. Studies have proven that jail is among the least effective means of punishment for reducing recidivism among DUI offenders. In addition, the cost of incarcerating the DUI offender in jail is astronomical and adds to the already overcrowded and overburdened jail system.

The cost of being on an electronic monitoring program varies, and is paid for by the DUI offender. There are many different programs and companies who are licensed to provide electronic monitoring. These companies strive to make it as easy and stress-free as possible.
