Description
What is a Local Time-Lapse Video System?
A Local (on-site) time-lapse video system documents every stage of a construction project using project-grade time-lapse cameras together with on-site storage and processing units. Footage is captured, stored and processed locally, with no internet connection or cloud service required. The system covers the full project duration — even beyond three years — without needing to export time-lapse clips repeatedly, and it is engineered for each project after a site survey.
- Storage & processing: On-site, no internet or cloud needed
- Coverage: Full project duration, three years or more
- System components: Project time-lapse cameras + storage & processing units
- Camera angles: One or more angles (optional) based on site size
- Footage processing: Fully on-device, no external software
- Time-lapse output: Customisable coverage period and final video length
- Power source: Site power or solar power systems (optional)
- Base & coverage: Riyadh and across Saudi Arabia

When should you choose the Local system?
The local system is the best fit for projects where a permanent, stable internet connection is hard to maintain on site, where recordings require a high level of privacy, or that run for many years. Instead of relying on uploading data to the cloud, all footage and processing stay on site, ensuring uninterrupted documentation with no monthly cloud-storage subscription fees.
System components and how it works
- Time-lapse cameras: Dedicated cameras that capture images at regular intervals throughout construction.
- Local storage & processing unit: An on-site device that stores, processes and renders the time-lapse video without external software.
- Power solutions: Powered by site electricity or an independent solar system for remote locations.
- Multiple angles (optional): Additional cameras to cover the project from different angles based on site area.
Benefits of the Local system
- Complete independence from internet and cloud.
- Continuous coverage for the entire project with no repeated clip extraction.
- No cloud subscription fees; storage and processing on site.
- Higher privacy for data and recordings.
- Professional, customisable time-lapse output for video length and coverage period.
How we design your system
A professional team of skilled specialists designs the time-lapse system and its components according to each project’s needs, following a site survey that reviews the project requirements, the scale of construction and the most suitable camera angles.
