- Market Opportunity
- MultiMedia Intelligence forecasts the consumer do-it-yourself home video surveillance market to grow from just under $300 million in revenue in 2008 to nearly $1 billion by 2012, with shipments exceeding 17 million cameras. Driving this growth is a dramatic shift to IP cameras backed by Web-based video services, away from today's CCTV/DVR-based systems.
