Flexible, future-proof AutoDome

Bosch Security Systems has introduced an innovative high-performance surveillance system designed to keep pace with future technology.

The new AutoDome Camera System is based on a platform of interchangeable modules that allows users to quickly and cost-effectively migrate to advanced functionality, such as object tracking and TCP/IP connectivity, as new innovations become available. The new AutoDome system is compatible with the entire line of Bosch surveillance products as well as a number of competitive platforms.

AutoDome modules are fully interchangeable and 'hot swappable', for example, from fixed to PTZ or colour to day/night. Advanced capabilities, such as image stabilisation or motion detection with tracking, can be added by changing modules.

The new cameras also allow for hybrid connectivity - the ability to stream IP and analog video simultaneously. The cameras use MPEG-4 encoding and compression to deliver DVD-quality 4CIF (common intermediate format) video at rates of up to 30 frames per second.

Bosch offers AutoDome models that incorporate intelligent features such as built-in image stabilisation, motion detection and AutoTrack II automated motion tracking technology.

The cameras are offered in four models, ranging from basic level fixed-position, through two levels of PTZ, to the full-featured 500i-Series Intelligent PTZ camera.
