32 MP panoramic camera

Hikvision has added an ultra HD 32 MP panoramic camera to its PanoVu camera range. The new DS-2CD6984G0-IH(S)(AC) 32 MP PanoVu Series Panoramic Dome Camera uses four ½-inch Progressive Scan CMOS sensors to deliver a true 180 degree horizontal panorama, as well as a vertical field of view of 95 degrees. The four video images are stitched together by the camera itself, which intelligently outputs a single, seamless panoramic image.

The camera offers HD resolution with a maximum resolution of 8160 × 3616 pixels. Its 32 MP image at 30 fps ensures smooth video image preview and playback.

Engineered with low illumination capability and four embedded infra-red LEDs, the camera can deliver HD panoramic video in low-light environments and even under 0 lux conditions, up to a distance of 20 metres. The camera also has a range of display modes to suit user needs. In addition to the standard 32 MP panorama view, users can choose to output the panoramic image in 8 MP resolution to fit into a corresponding network video recorder. The camera can also deliver four, 8 MP standalone images from each lens, or four images in panorama view.

Thanks to its broad field of view, the DS-2CD6984G0-IH(S)(AC) is ideal for large, open areas such as stadiums, plazas, entertainment venues and industrial facilities. Just one camera can cover an area that previously required multiple cameras, reducing IP channels. This also makes installation and configuration much easier, faster and potentially more cost-effective.
