FLEXIDOME panoramic 5100i cameras improve situational awareness with audio AI

Places like border control or waiting areas in airports, bank entrances or other commercial buildings need a great overview. It’s important to track people from the moment they enter the building and follow them as they move around. Because all of their movements may be crucial for monitoring behavior or forensic search. Without exception. Zero blind spots. FLEXIDOME panoramic 5100i cameras do both. They also have the option to zoom in on objects of interest. And at a better resolution than ever before - even at the extreme edges of a scene. So you can minimize the risk of missing important information.

Get insights into anything from occupancy levels in a parking lot to recognizing and detecting stationary objects or objects that have been remove e.g. mandatory fire equipment in a logistics hall. Built-in Camera Trainer enables you to tailor built-in Video Analytics to detect the things that matter most to you. For even more accuracy and flexibility.

The FLEXIDOME panoramic 5100i are the first Bosch cameras to feature Intelligent Audio Analytics on the edge, besides the built-in Intelligent Video Analytics and Camera Trainer. Intelligent Audio Analytics help security staff see with sound, enabling them to quickly and appropriately respond to an incident. It is based on SoundSee technology used by the International Space Station where it identifies imminent failures by analyzing machine noise ─ it can hear when something is about to go wrong.

The first Intelligent Audio Analytics software licenses available are the Gunshot Detector and T3/T4 (Smoke and Carbon monoxide alarm) Detector for the FLEXIDOME panoramic 5100i and FLEXIDOME panoramic 5100i IR. Additional detectors are planned in the future firmware releases.

In schools and universities, panoramic cameras can give a complete overview and identify unusual situations in hallways, corridors, cafeterias, and other areas. By providing instantaneously detection, classification and direction of the source of an audio event without the need for additional server or external connectivity, Intelligent Audio Analytics will vastly improve situational awareness and strengthen the protection of people and property.

FLEXIDOME panoramic 5100i cameras are equipped with Intelligent Video Analytics, Camera Trainer, Intelligent Audio Analytics. The built-in audio and video AI enables the cameras to understand what they see and convert video and audio data into actionable insights. This ultimately improves security, delivers business insights and improves response times in emergency situations.

• Intelligent Video Analytics helps customer focus only on alerts that matter and track suspicious activity
• Camera Trainer teaches cameras to detect objects or situations that customers previously couldn’t detect
• Intelligent Audio Analytics precisely detects and classifies sounds and identifies the direction of the source. This enables security guards to confirm the alarm visually and act proactively. So they can respond fast and appropriately to an incident.

Bosch FLEXIDOME Panoramic 5100i IR cameras offer a 360-degree overview in a single image without blind spots, even in low-light conditions thanks to infrared light. By offering a detailed overview image of an area, the panoramic cameras enable users to simultaneously zoom in on an object of interest without losing the bigger picture. The close-up images are transmitted in a separate channel so that both overview and detail can be viewed at the same time – and all in high resolution. Edge or client-side dewarping ensures easy integration and flexible viewing and recording. With 12-megapixel sensor resolution at a frame rate of 30 frames per second, these cameras provide a 360-degree overview enabling the easy capture of objects to significantly improve the quality of a surveillance operation. Perfect exposure to capture objects of interest is achieved in every situation by Intelligent Auto Exposure. It automatically adjusts the exposure of the camera by dynamically adapting to the changing light conditions to deliver excellent front light and backlight compensation.

Designed for easy installation and mounting, the panoramic cameras also offer twist and click installation to reduce installation time. A rotatable imager enables easier alignment. For applications when it’s necessary to look down along the wall, the cameras can be easily mounted and tilted on a wall to achieve a 180-degree view.
