In todays construction market general contractors need to run their companies lean and mean. This means you have to do more with less in order to make profit margins like the days of 2007.

Cellular Construction Cameras are a tool to help with this process. Most general contractors have more than one construction site going at one time. It is very difficult to be in multiple places managing these sites and more than likely they are not close to each other making the drive seem longer and longer every time it has to be done. Not only is this killing the efficiency of general management by taking up the time in the day but putting wear and tear on your truck and burning expensive fuel.

Every general contractor knows they have to be on site to answer questions and give directions but this is a delicate balance of how much time you spend on each site vs. running from site to site chasing sub-contractors and inspectors.

A cellular construction camera can solve this by allowing a general contractor to view other sites LIVE from their smart phone. Save yourself time and money by pulling up other sites on your smart phone before getting in your truck and making the drive. By looking at the live pictures a general contractor can determine if it is time to go to the next job-site or not.

Most general contractors can do this at the office as well. This is just one way a cellular construction camera can help make the construction process more efficient and ultimately save the general contractor time and money.

Jobsite theft is also a concern for most contractors. During the day and especially after hours at night jobsites are open markets for thieves to come and go un noticed. Eye Trax constructions cameras are manufactured with a standard PIR based motion sensor. PIR sensors measure changed in thermal temperature and not changes in pixels (most motion detecting cameras). It is very important to have a motion sensor that detects changes in thermal activity vs. changes in pixel change because the contractor is mainly concerned in viewing human activity and not the wind blowing trash or leaves on the trees. Human activity will trigger the motion sensor because the sensor sees the heat that is given off by the human body. When there is a human body on a jobsite after hours, this usually indicates there is activity that will concern any contractor. The construction camera will detect the human body day or night and send images as quickly as every five seconds to the contractor’s mobile phone and/or email. The construction camera is also equipped with Infrared Lights that are invisible to the human eye but will illuminate an area so that the camera lens will produce a high quality pictures for determination by the contractor. Construction has been an industry that has not evolved it’s method of jobsite surveillance. Typically a construction manager would arrive to a job site and stay for a while and then move on to another jobsite or pick up materials. The invention of the construction camera has drastically changed the way a jobsite is monitored.

Most construction cameras on the market today are either modified hunting cameras or high end time lapse video cameras that don’t offer motion sensing technology. If you are concerned with jobsite security and have a need for a time-lapse video camera that transmit pictures and events immediately then Eye Trax has the camera product for you.

A hunting camera is a decent cheaper alternative but lacks the picture quality and motion sensing area because it is designed to watch a deer trail and not a large area. Most hunting cameras require the end user to view the pictures by picking up the internal SD card to view the pictures on a computer. With this method, by the time you have found that your jobsite has been vandalized then it is more than likely too late to catch the perpetrators.

Wireless solar powered security cameras fill a void in remote areas where security and surveillance couldn't be performed before because of the costly expense in trying to provide power and an internet connection to those areas.  Eye Trax makes this void a thing of the past by offering a cellular based surveillance camera that is indefinitely powered by a solar panel and controlled by a web based User Interface.  

Wireless cameras are changing the face security and surveillance efficiency in remote areas where this was not a reality in the past. The motion sensor trigger allows the remote area surveillance camera to act as a digital security guard 24/7 by seeing changes in thermal activity, not the wind blowing trees.  

This motion activated security camera catches thieves who lurk in sensitive remote areas day and night.  The infrared lamps that automatically turn on at night are invisible to the human eye and don't not emit any light but can see up to 75 feet away.

If a solar powered security camera isn't what you are looking for, but a time-lapse video camera is then this dual-purpose wireless security camera and construction camera is a perfect combination to solve your entire wireless camera needs.  

Motion detection, time activation, and LIVE instant picture request are the trigger mechanisms for the wireless outdoor security camera to acquire pictures during the day or infrared pictures at night.

Pictures from the solar powered outdoor cameras are delivered to your cellular phone, email, and web based portal called the “User Interface” in 90 seconds or less.

The User Interface boasts features including time lapse video, picture overlay, unlimited picture storage, unlimited user logins, pictures categorized by date, and total control of picture acquisition rates and methods.

Marketing and branding your company with the solar powered wireless camera is also a very easy possibility. Each wireless camera is accompanied with a “snipit code” which can be found on the camera console and inserted into your company’s web site with little effort. Now your live remote surveillance camera is sending images automatically to your website, giving your customer and potential customers the ability to look live into your wireless outdoor camera.

Monitoring activity on a construction site provides a continuous report on progress, keeps staff and subs honest in terms of job performance, and helps ensure that safety precautions and proper regulatory measures are taken. The images captured on this construction camera provide an impressive marketing and branding message for use on the company website, social media, updates to clients, as well as motivation for internal staff.

No more driving from site to site to check on subs, deliveries and developments, you can easily check site conditions and construction progress from any computer, tablet or smartphone with our simple User Interface.

Nighttime notification is an option for the person or security division to receive these high definition pictures. In areas where there is heavy activity during day light hours and not supposed to be any when the sun goes down, the wireless security camera can be programmed to only send pictures at night. This will eliminate unnecessary pictures during the day and only alert the end user at night when typically these critical events take place. The infrared red lamps installed on the camera allow it to see up to seventy-five feet away and are completely invisible to the human eye.

Your construction cameras are under your control, you determine when you want them on, where you want them placed and what they need to record. Whether you need to document delivery times, eliminate employee theft or ensure that subcontractors follow OSHA standards, construction cameras are the solution.
