IDIS, the South Korean video tech manufacturer, has launched four 8MP and 6MP PTZ cameras in the company’s NDAA-compliant line-up. The new outdoor-ready and vandal-resistant 8MP (DC-S6881HRX) and 6MP (DC-S6681HRX) models combine infrared (IR) with 31x optical zoom, autofocus lenses and 30 frames per second for broad coverage, even in low-light settings, the makers say.
Designed for wide-area surveillance operations, the new models give users the ability to identify objects and recognise faces at distances of up to 300m for forensic purposes. Two-way audio also provides operators with the ability to pre-configure alerts or issue verbal warnings. This makes them suitable the firm says for town and city surveillance, road junctions, parking areas, perimeter security, and open areas within shopping malls, sports facilities, hotels, logistics firms, and warehouses.
The cameras feature IDIS Smart Failover; built-in heaters; IDIS Intelligent Codec to deliver bandwidth and storage savings; true WDR, and electronic image stabilization to minimise the impact of vibration and shaking. They also come with motion detection, tampering alarms, and a range of smart PTZ features that can move between pre-set positions and zoom in automatically in response to detected objects or events.
Overcoming the jerkiness of PTZ (pan and tilt), operators can use IDIS Smart UX Controls, allowing them to follow moving objects in real-time, by panning at different speeds and in different directions, literally without lifting a finger. Patented and intuitive features include ‘Rubberband’ and ‘Slingshot’ using joysticks as well as keyboard and mouse ‘Quick Controls’ to speed up and simplify operation.
Like all IDIS network cameras, the new 8MP and 6MP PTZs offer plug-and-play with IDIS DirectIP network recorders (NVRs). Users can choose the cost-free IDIS Center or the modular, enterprise-class IDIS Solution Suite video management software (VMS) that comes without on-going license fees.
“These newest additions to our line-up offer powerful and advanced camera choices designed to meet a broader range of applications, including wide-area surveillance and mission-critical perimeter detection,” says James Min, Managing Director, IDIS Europe. “Because they are NDAA-compliant, they are the ideal choice for organisations looking to comply with the highest standards and give users the assurance of South Korean supply chain integrity.”
