A surveillance system having a multi-area motion-detection function is described. The surveillance system includes a display, an area selection device, and a threshold input device. The display shows a surveillance video. The area selection device selects a first area and a second area on the display screen. The threshold input device sets a motion-detection threshold of the first area and a motion-detection threshold of the second area. When the result of the motion-detection exceeds the motion-detection threshold of the first area, the surveillance video is stored in a storage medium. When the result of the motion-detection exceeds the motion-detection threshold of the second area, the surveillance video is stored in the storage medium.

Surveillance system having a multi-area motion detection function

A monitoring system including N cameras, a digital video recorder (DVR), a monitor, a remote controller, a receiver and a host is provided. N is a positive integer. The N cameras successively shoot N sceneries, and output N successive images accordingly. The DVR receives and stores the N successive images. The monitor displays a monitoring screen. The remote controller outputs a wireless remote signal. The receiver receives the wireless remote signal and outputs a wire transmit signal accordingly. The host controls the monitor to display at least the successive image in the monitoring screen. The host has an on screen display (OSD) program. When the controller receives the wire transmit signal, the host utilizes the OSD program to process the wire transmit signal to become a screen adjusting signal. The host adjusts the monitoring screen according to the screen adjusting signal.
