PTZ cameras (Pan-Tilt-Zoom)

Pan-tilt-zoom functionality allows PTZ cams to rotate left and right, tilt up and down, and zoom in and out. This versatility enables users to:

• Monitor large areas efficiently
• Obtain close-up views of suspicious activity
• Capture license plates and object details
• Eliminate blind spots in expansive spaces

Zoom capabilities are a standout feature of PTZ security cameras. Most models offer both optical zoom and digital zoom options:

• Optical zoom uses a motorized zoom lens to magnify images without loss of quality
• Digital zoom enlarges pixels, which may result in some digital pixelation

Auto tracking is an advanced feature that allows PTZ CCTV cameras to automatically follow moving objects or individuals. This functionality is particularly useful for:

• Monitoring parking lots
• Tracking suspicious activity
• Following vehicles in transit

Preset tours enable users to program predetermined pan, tilt, and zoom sequences. This automation feature ensures consistent coverage to safeguard critical areas without constant manual control.

Advanced video processing systems utilize real-time analysis to automatically generate descriptive metadata about the events occurring within a (moving) video feed. This capability enables PTZ surveillance cameras to execute various tasks, including:

• Detecting unauthorized individuals
• Classifying vehicles and interpreting license plates
• Counting people and vehicles
• Tracking moving objects

AUTODOME moving video cameras are made for high level security application with a robust ball form factor that enables undistorted, high-resolution video. A built-in closed loop positioning system ensures a position is never lost, which significantly improves reliability in challenging weather conditions.

The latest AUTODOME cameras, like the AUTODOME 7100i (IR), feature IVA Pro, an expert suite of application-specific video analytics offering reliable, precise classification for city surveillance, traffic monitoring and long-distance perimeter detection. When paired with IVA Pro Intelligent Tracking, the camera improves situational awareness by detecting and classifying persons or vehicles when the camera is panning, tilting, or zooming and follows continuously, even if the object stops moving.

To save valuable time while still maintaining safety standards, the cameras employ a simplified installation concept and require no calibration for person or vehicle detection.

MIC security cameras provide wide-area coverage, and are designed for surveillance applications beyond the mechanical capabilities of normal PTZ cameras. A robust, solid metal housing (rated to an industry-leading IP68, Type 6P, IK10) endures high impacts and protects against salt-water and corrosion. It is constructed to perform in any environment and withstands high winds, heavy rain, snow, 100% humidity and extreme temperatures.

An optional illuminator can light up areas without compromising video quality and significantly helps with deterrence in unmanned areas. Thanks to edge-based AI, the cameras are designed to resist false triggers like snow, wind, rain, hail, water reflections, and shaking.

The MIC IP fusion 9000i 9mm camera combines a thermal imager with an optical camera. With metadata fusion, it offers a unique technology to combine object detection data from both thermal and optical video analytics streams and display them together in one view.

Thanks to easy installation and maintenance, they deliver a lifetime of value, making them the most cost-effective choice to safeguard mission-critical applications.
