A good camera system subtly deters crime
Security cameras possess a conflicting interest relating to form vs. function. On the one side, you need your security equipment to be visible to dissuade a break-in. On the other side, you don't want the cameras to be an eyesore to your property. A poorly mounted camera, or one that doesn't match the space, may detract from your home's look.
Thankfully, there are a myriad of sleek cameras that can still become a hindrance to criminals. A professionally installed wireless security camera will look clean beneath your gutters or reside on a desk without sticking out -- unless you look for it. But, if you buy a Vivint that comes with a light or LED ring that activates, it will stick out to creeps, sending them away.
