CCTV Camera

CCTV (Closed-Circuit Television) refers to a broad category of surveillance and security equipment rather than a single specific brand. The technology was first developed in Germany in 1942 for monitoring V-2 rockets and later evolved into a commercial industry globally.

Today, the manufacturing of CCTV systems is highly concentrated in China, which hosts some of the world's largest manufacturers like Hikvision and Dahua. However, production also takes place in South Korea, Taiwan, and the United States, depending on the specific brand and security requirements. Ownership of CCTV brands varies widely, ranging from government-owned entities to private multinational corporations and specialized security firms.
