Future-facing cameras

Residential Estate Security Handbook 2019 Products & Solutions, Surveillance

The FLEXIDOME IP starlight 8000i fixed dome camera has been developed to streamline the video security process and save up to 75% of camera set-up time.

These future-facing cameras feature remote commissioning. When used with the Project Assistant app, the pan, tilt, roll and zoom (PTRZ) function can set the field of view even beyond the initial setup. They also provide water and vandal resistance, and can operate at temperatures of -50 to +60°C, while in low-light situations, Bosch’s Starlight technology (together with 1080p, 6 megapixel, or the 4K Ultra HD resolution) provides exceptional detail.

All FLEXIDOME IP starlight 8000i cameras feature built-in Intelligent Video Analytics, making them intuitive, and elevates their importance far beyond security alone. The setup of these video analytics is straightforward; simply enter the camera height and the video analytics will calibrate itself via information provided by the built-in gyro sensor.

When image detail matters, frame rates of up to 60 fps enables fast-moving objects to be easily captured, whilst the High Dynamic Range compensates for areas with a high variance of dark and light. And, when Intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction and intelligent streaming are combined with H.265 video compression, they can reduce bitrate by up to 80%, and the addition of various software and hardware measures keeps vital video data secure.
