Boston Bombing to Boost Security Camera Sales

EETimes quotes IHS' IMS Research predicting Boston bombing to spur a dramatic increase in video surveillance camera sales. "While it’s too early to tell exactly what impact the Boston bombing will have, past events—like 9/11 and the London Underground bombings—have led to increased government spending on video surveillance for public spaces, particularly in the transport sector," said Paul Everett, senior manager of video surveillance at IHS.
