IP cameras used to be more common in businesses rather than in homes, but that is no longer the case. Unlike consumer IP Cameras, Enterprise IP Cameras often offer higher video resolution, video analytics, and are mostly accessed though HTTP and real time streaming protocol (RTSP). They are generally connect to the internet through Wi-Fi or an Ethernet cable. Consumer IP cameras used for home security typically send live video to a companion app on a user's device. Network Cameras are developed for both enterprise and consumer use. Each group now has numerous additional members, thus cameras and recording hardware that operate under the same standard are compatible with each other. ONVIF was founded by Axis Communications, Bosch and Sony. PSIA was founded by 20 member companies including Honeywell, GE Security, and Cisco. To address IP video surveillance standardization issues, two industry groups formed in 2008: the Open Network Video Interface Forum ( ONVIF) and the Physical Security Interoperability Alliance (PSIA). IP cameras may differ from one another in resolution, features, video encoding schemes, available network protocols, and the API for video management software.

Since 2000, there has been a shift in the consumer TV business towards high-definition (HD) resolutions (e.g. Previous generations of analog CCTV cameras use established broadcast television formats (e.g. With the success of IP Cameras, other companies such as Nest (owned by Google, U.S.) released similar cloud-based devices. As of 2021, Ring has sold millions of units.

The device offered quick setup, cloud based recording, and motion detection. With advancements in cloud infrastructure, Ring (owned by Amazon, U.S.), released its first IP Camera doorbell targeted for home use in 2014. This camera was able to detect a number of different events, such as if an object was stolen, a human crossed a line, a human entered a predefined zone, or if a car moved in the wrong direction. In 2005, the first IP camera with onboard video content analytics ( VCA) was released by Intellio. The camera's Linux system contained video, alarm, and recording management functions. The first decentralized IP camera was released in 1999 by Mobotix.

The Axis Neteye 200 was not intended to replace traditional analogue CCTV systems, given that its capability was limited to just one frame per second in Common Intermediate Format (CIF), or a frame every 17 seconds in 4CIF resolution. Thus, it was aimed primarily at the tourism industry. The camera was considered incapable of operating as a motion camera due to enormous bandwidth requirements. It was limited to a snapshot image each time the camera was accessed due to the lack of powerful integrated circuits capable of handling image processing and networking. Though promoted based on its direct accessibility from anywhere with an internet connection, the camera could not stream real-time motion video. The first centralized IP camera, the AXIS Neteye 200, was released in 1996 by Axis Communications.
