Day/night camera offers optimum clarity

June 2001 Perimeter Security, Alarms & Intruder Detection

The Philips G3 EnviroDome day/night camera switches from colour to monochrome when light levels drop and can be automatically programmed to switch in to night mode when the light drops to below a specified threshold. This switch to night mode will ensure that optimum clarity of picture is obtained in black and white.

This eye-in-the-sky unit offers a wide operating temperature range and its low profile makes it stable in windy conditions. Furthermore, the G3 EnviroDome is weather resistant and is manufactured with fewer moving parts making it ideal for high-usage perimeter applications.

This compact security system offers high-speed panning and tilting with 360° continuous rotation and 0,5° accuracy on presets in less than a second. By using a supplied option of fibre-optic transmission of both video and control signals over a single fibre, the G3 EnviroDome allows for fast and accurate transmission of information for distances of up to 4 km.

The Guard Tour feature allows the user to store two separate tours totalling 15 min in duration - these tours consist of control commands and can be played back when needed. The G3 EnviroDome makes use of the Philips patented AutoPivot feature that automatically rotates and flips the camera, so tracking a subject under the dome is quiet and undetected.
