Arecont Vision expands compact megapixel line

Arecont Vision has expanded its Compact MegaVideo line of box cameras from 10 models to 15, including a new 1,3 megapixel compact H.264 model (AV1115), a full HD1080p compact H.264 model (AV2115), a dual-mode 10 megapixel/1080p compact H.264 camera (AV10115), 3 megapixel H.264 (AV3115) and 5 megapixel H.264 (AV5115) compact cameras.

Like other models in the MegaVideo line, the new cameras are less expensive, smaller (with 45 percent less depth dimension) and 33% lighter than previous models. The new cameras are also easy to install and can fit into smaller housings. For example, the cameras can support 4,5-10 mm and 8-16 mm varifocal lenses and still fit inside a 4-inch dome housing.

Arecont Vision AV2115, the Full HD1080p compact H.264 model, can also operate in the company’s new Casino Mode which ensures continuous full-motion recording at 30 frames per second (fps) to comply with gaming industry regulations. Casino Mode guarantees that the frame rate will not dip below 30 fps by forcing automatic bit rate and exposure control to maintain specific predetermined settings.

An auto-iris lens is available at any resolution, whether 1,3MP, 1080p, 3MP, 5MP or 10MP. Compression includes H.264 (MPEG-4, Part 10) and Motion JPEG with 21 levels of quality. Multistreaming functionality (with eight non-identical streams) allows efficient use of bandwidth. Fast frame rates include 32 fps at 1080p, 14 fps at 5MP and 7 fps at 10 MP. MegaVideo image processing is capable of performing 80 billion operations per second to simultaneously deliver full resolution and region of interest streams.

An on-camera privacy mask feature enables video to be blocked in multiple regions in almost any arbitrary shape. Extended motion detection provides a higher-granularity grid of 1024 distinct motion detection zones. Forensic zooming allows close-up views of any region of interest, even on archived video.

The cameras are fully compatible with the PSIA (Physical Security Interoperability Alliance) industry standard and have passed PSIA conformance tests. Cameras can be powered by either power over Ethernet (PoE) or 12-48V DC/AC power supplies.
