180 degree Camera Design in Scallop Imaging Booth 3935

The Digital Window D7-180 security camera streams and records in seven megapixel high resolution throughout its 180 degree field of view, without fisheye distortion. Digital Window distributes this imaging task across five powerful microsensors, providing an extraordinary increase in capability, at lower cost, and lower bandwidth requirements than traditional IP video cameras, according to the company.

The camera’s embedded CPUs process over 100 megapixels per second, synthesizing image data into a seamless, 180 degree field of view. Through its embedded web server, it services connection requests and provides three simultaneous video streams:

      A constant 180 degree view, without any fisheye distortion, at 15 fps;

      A high resolution, 15 fps detail window that is instantly repositionable; and

      A full seven megapixel, 180 degree video stream at one fps for storage and later review.

Check Out Enhanced Video in March Networks Booth 2865

Its VideoSphere Intelligent Video Management uses Shadow Archiving feature which allows users to remotely access video recorded on MegaPX IP cameras with SiteManager desktop application software. This not only simplifies access to video stored at the network edge, but also enhances system redundancy by protecting against periodic network loss. In the case of a network outage, for example, video recorded on the integrated SD cards is automatically identified by the VMS for convenient downloading. Shadow Archiving eliminates the need to extract video from the cameras manually or to switch to a different software application to retrieve the data.
