I had originally planned to restrict the usual PR essays describing the core features and functions our component, not concentrating attention on the details. Of course, such a story would fully disclose all of the chips of our product. On the other hand, he certainly would have caused you yawn for about the third paragraph. Therefore, I will try to make this article was useful not only the author but also the readers. I will describe not so much what we did, how we did it. We begin, naturally, with the task that was standing before us. Task Imagine that you – web-programmer who implements a complex SCADA system, dashboard (sorry, but a clear translation of the word in Russian I have not met), the interactive control system of metrics, or simply you need to insert into your website the watch with a clever design. In this case you need to add all sorts of scale, whirlings arrow (...

To good not to disappear, and, at the same time to give the topic for discussion (all of a sudden it bothers someone else besides me?: o) I decided to publish the text of this document here. A suitable topic, I could not find, therefore let them hang in, "I'm a PR", and there, at the discretion of the moderators. Background DVRs are popular with car owners for obvious reasons. The controversial situation on the road, crime, the possibility of self-provision of evidence in court, etc., the Demand for these devices is constantly growing and currently the market features dozens of models.
