Lesson 1Findin' key coverage areas: gates, loadin' docks, storage paths, office, guard roomFind dem key coverage areas wey dey push camera placin' in warehouses. Put first gates, loadin' docks, paths, offices, an' guard rooms base on risk, people comin' an' goin', an' past wahala to build strong, solid design.
Risk-based ranking of warehouse areasCoverage needs at vehicle and staff gatesLoading dock bays, ramps, and staging zonesHigh-value and restricted storage aislesOffice, guard room, and control room viewsLesson 2Lens, view field, an' resolution pickin': focal length, side FOV, height calculatin'Master lens, view field, an' resolution choosin' for big warehouse jobs. Use focal length an' mountin' height to figure coverage, pixel count, an' ID ranges for paths, docks, gates, an' tall storage spots.
Relating focal length to horizontal field of viewPixel density targets for ID vs overview viewsHeight, tilt, and distance calculation examplesChoosing multi-sensor vs single-sensor coverageBalancing resolution, bandwidth, and storageLesson 3Low-light an' WDR tech: pickin' rules for movin' areas an' high-contrast spotsKnow how low-light an' WDR features change picture quality in movin' areas an' high-contrast places. Learn read datasheets, compare tech, an' pick settings wey keep details in dark paths, dock doors, an' sky-lit zones.
Lux ratings, gain control, and noise trade-offsTrue day/night, IR-cut filters, and color modesWDR dB ratings and handling backlit dock doorsTuning shutter and frame rate for moving forkliftsTesting low-light performance during site surveyLesson 4Camera number guessin' an' place map: draw simple coverage drawin's an' sight sketchesGuess camera numbers an' make simple coverage maps for warehouse work. Learn sketch floor plans, mark sight paths, an' fine-tune place to hit operation goals while holdin' cost an' install trouble.
Creating scaled or approximate floor sketchesMarking camera icons, FOV cones, and rangesCounting cameras by task and risk categoryIterating layouts to reduce overlaps and gapsDocumenting final design for installersLesson 5Audio tings an' legal/privacy checks for inside/outside recordin'Know when an' how to use audio in warehouse watchin'. Check mic place, record rules, consent needs, an' privacy zones for inside an' outside to cut legal an' rule risks.
Use cases for audio in docks and guard areasMic types, placement, and noise challengesOne-party vs two-party consent fundamentalsSignage, policy, and worker notification needsMasking private areas and disabling audioLesson 6Mountin', aimin', an' sight plan: overlap, blind spot killin', anti-glare plansPlan mount spots an' aim angles to dodge blind spots an' glare. Learn design overlap coverage, handle shine from floors an' doors, an' check sights wid test views in warehouse survey.
Selecting structural mounting points safelySetting tilt and roll to avoid ceiling viewsDesigning overlap to cover blind spotsMitigating glare from doors, glass, and metalUsing test monitors to confirm sightlinesLesson 7Camera types an' shapes: fixed, varifocal, dome, bullet, turret, PTZ — good/bad for warehouseCheck fixed, varifocal, dome, bullet, turret, an' PTZ cameras for warehouse. Learn how each shape hit coverage, scare, fix-up, an' cost so you match types to warehouse risk ways.
Fixed vs varifocal lens use in aisles and docksDome, bullet, and turret pros and cons indoorsPTZ roles for yards, perimeters, and guard toursImpact of camera size and appearance on deterrenceMaintenance and cleaning needs by form factorLesson 8Vandal an' weather guard: IK an' IP rates, mount heights, tamper spotCheck vandal an' weather dangers for inside/outside warehouse cameras. Learn IK an' IP rates, mount height plans, an' tamper spot choices to cut damage, down time, an' blind spots from bad meddlin'.
IK impact ratings and typical warehouse risksIP weather ratings for docks and yard polesOptimal mounting heights to reduce tamperingUsing cages, housings, and anti-ligature optionsConfiguring tamper alarms and event responsesLesson 9Extra pickin': housin's, sunshields, mounts, conduit, junction boxesPick extras wey guard cameras an' easy install in warehouse places. Learn when use housin's, sunshields, mounts, conduit, an' junction boxes to handle wires, heat, shake, an' future fix access.
Choosing housings for dust, cold, and humiditySunshields and glare control on dock exteriorsWall, pole, and pendant mounts for high baysConduit, cable glands, and strain relief choicesJunction boxes for service loops and terminationsLesson 10Place an' light check: day/night light, back light, LED flash, IR spreadLearn check natural an' man-made light cross warehouse day an' night. Check back light, LED flash, IR shine, an' season changes so camera place an' settings keep good pictures all time.
Mapping daylight, skylights, and dark storage zonesRecognizing backlight from doors and windowsIdentifying LED flicker and selecting safe shutterManaging IR reflections, bloom, and hot spotsDocumenting seasonal and shift-based light changes
