360 degree overview

by Mark Rowe

The compact AXIS M3027-PVE is a new 5-megapixel fixed dome from Axis Communications. The product offers a 360 degree or 180 degree overview. The IK10 vandal resistant, day-night camera is for indoor or outdoor use, such as inside or outside hotels, boutiques, restaurants and offices.

Erik Frännlid, Director of Product Management, Axis Communications says: “With the introduction of AXIS M3027-PVE, we further strengthen our line-up of discreet and affordably priced fixed domes by adding a 360 degree / 180 degree panoramic outdoor-ready video surveillance solution. It offers price-sensitive market segments the option of using just one camera to get the big picture. The camera also has substantial capacity for intelligent video applications and supports a wide range of video management software including the complimentary AXIS Camera Companion .”

The M3027-PVE, which is the latest addition to the line-up of outdoor-ready M30-VE cameras, can be mounted on ceilings, soffits or under porches for a 360 degree overview and on walls for a 180 degree view, pictured. The dome provides de-warped views such as panorama, double panorama and quad views, as well as view area modes where users can digitally pan, tilt and zoom in on areas of interest. Multiple streams in H.264 and Motion JPEG can be sent simultaneously. The M3027-PVE offers I/O ports for connection to external devices.

All cameras in the M30 Series come focused at delivery, which means short installation time. They support Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af), which eliminates the need for power cables and reduces installation costs.

The M3027-PVE offers support for the installation of intelligent video applications through AXIS Camera Application Platform . The camera’s built-in microSDHC card slot enables several days of recording to be stored locally on a memory card. Using local storage together with the AXIS Camera Companion video management software provides users with a way to remotely view and manage video from up to 16 cameras per site.

The M3027- PVE is also supported by other video management software including AXIS Camera Station, hosted video offerings and third-party applications through Axis’ Application Development Partner. Client side de-warping of the 360 degree overview is supported by Axis’ video management software and also by some partners. AXIS M3027-PVE is ONVIF Profile S conformant.

The M3027-PVE is now available for order through the makers’ distribution channels.
