Country Club Vista HOA purchased the cameras from Atlanta startup company Flock Safety in order to monitor an area covering 645 homes, according to company officials. The wireless outdoor cameras can read and record the license plates of passing cars during the day and night and will collectively store up to 500 hours of footage daily, according to the company.
A neighbor we spoke with Wednesday applauded the extra security, saying she has lost her medication to mail theft in the past.
Flock Safety cameras can be installed anywhere without existing infrastructure, according to the company. Another interesting function is they don’t require users to comb through 500 hours of footage. Like a Google search, the systems allow users to type in the time frame that a crime occurred into a search field, and even the color and model of a suspect vehicle, so the desired footage can be isolated with less effort.
