Multi-lens panoramic camera

February 2017 Surveillance, Products & Solutions

Dahua Technology has introduced its multi-lens 180° panoramic network IR bullet camera. The IPC-PFW8601-A180 provides added flexibility for capturing wide-area video surveillance. With real-time image splicing technology, the camera has three 2-MP sensors working in tandem to create a comprehensive 180° view. This camera replaces multiple single-sensor cameras to lower cost of installation, storage and maintenance.

Adjustments can be made to each sensor on contrast and brightness to achieve a clear panorama view. The multi-lens camera supports day/night mechanical IR cut filter and true WDR (120 dB) which makes it ideal for applications in fluctuating lighting conditions. In addition, this camera deploys Dahua Starlight Technology to deliver usable video with minimal ambient light.

The camera is equipped with a built-in intelligent video analytic algorithm, which can realise functions like tripwire, intrusion, abandoned object and missing object, to accurately respond to events in a specific area. At the same time, the camera features face detection and intelligent tamper detection, which means more efficient security surveillance.

The camera has smart IR technology which can adjust the intensity of the camera’s infrared LEDs to compensate for the distance of an object. Smart IR technology prevents IR LEDs from whitening out images as they come closer to the camera.

With an operating ambient temperature range of -40°C to +60°C, IP67 and IK10 rating, this camera suits almost any outdoor applications including open and expansive areas like borders, coastlines, highways, squares and stadiums.
