Panoramic Views and the Megapixel Value Prop @dw_cctv

What is the megapixel value proposition for surveillance cameras?

  • Better Image Quality (Higher Resolution)
  • System Savings through Camera Reduction (See More with Fewer Cameras)
  • Design Using Wide Area Surveillance and Choke Points

How do multi-sensor panoramic cameras fit into that proposition?

  • High Resolution 180° and 360° views from a single installation
  • Multiple sensors, but only one network connection and one recording license

In order to further increase that value proposition in a significant way, Digital Watchdog’s new MEGApix® Pano™ Three-Sensor 180° Panoramic Camera delivers the 180° view at up to 30fps.

The camera has three 1080p sensors. It is easy to understand how this camera works: it always delivers a 1080p stream. The 180° view is letterboxed in a 1080p window. When you zoom into the image, you can isolate any of the sensors up to a 1080p stream.

Oh, did we mention this industry-first bullet pano also has IR? It has IR. Smart IR™.

Key Features:

  • Streams Up to 30fps
  • Three-Sensor Panoramic as One Channel (window) and One Recording License
  • Smart IR° Up to 114-Feet
  • OnVIF Conformant (no need for special integration into VMS)
  • Image is Stitched (easy GUI adjustment of the sensors)
  • Program Virtual PTZ Tours in DW Spectrum™
  • Bullet Housing is IP67 Rated
