The development of high-definition cameras has pushed security surveillance to move towards the trend of 1080P at 25 frames per second.

In China, with the gradual highlighting of 720P 5MP pixel cameras, HD has become established. Although the traditional 1.3MP pixel camera is still dominant in the market, occupying 60% of the market share, but a large number of camera manufacturers have begun to gradually transition to 2MP, 3MP, or even 5MP pixel camera. Most 3MP or 5MP pixel cameras and some 2 million pixel cameras are already comparable to the 25 frame rate 1080P camera.

Further, a 3MP pixel camera has been able to support 2048x1536 pixels, while a 5MP pixel device can provide a 2560x1920 pixel image. Some equipment suppliers have correspondingly, as the price gradually declines, two or three million cameras can eventually replace the 1.3MP pixel camera. At the same time, the 5MP pixel camera market will continue to expand, with a slight 5% market share to 15%.

In 2010, sales of high-resolution products were estimated to have an annual growth rate of more than 15%, and their total sales were 150,000 pieces, of which standard products and IP types each exceeded the growth rate of 20 and 60%. The market share of the former rose from about 0.36% in 2009 to more than 0.75% last year. The improvement was mainly due to the increasing demand, especially the traffic and financial security management departments at that time, the reason for the decline was the second reason, the grass-roots units The cost of cost reduction from the original 200 to 300 US dollars to about 100 US dollars, the acceptance of the cost and acceptance of the speed of acceleration in turn stimulate the development of the industry.

In general, entry-level megapixel cameras cost about $100, and mid-range megapixel cameras range from $300 to $500. The market price for high-end product prices is $1,000. In general, the price of megapixel high speed balls is often more than 1,500 US dollars.

It can be said that the prospects for the future are very favorable, and a product supplier in the industry said when foreseeing this year's output value. According to an IMS survey, in 2014, more than half of the world's IP cameras will be HD cameras.
