Grundig Security’s new IP camera range features Quad Scan wide dynamic range, and low light capability.
The range, shown at Security ESSEN, is designed by Grundig Engineering. The range includes compact, indoor and outdoor vandal-resistant domes, integrated bullet cameras and a 6 megapixel (MP) fisheye camera. The indoor domes, outdoor vandal-resistant domes and integrated cameras have 2 and 3MP options. The Quad Scan WDR is enabled by the Sony Exmor CMOS sensor, for low light sensitivity and Dual Noise Reduction (DNR) to reduce image noise. Sensitivity is improved further with an option to run the cameras at 60 frame per second.
The higher-spec camera models have Xarina digital signal processing (DSP), which allows analytics features such as facial detection. All the new cameras include infra-red LED illumination for night vision. The 2MP cameras have 3 to 10.5mm vari-focal lens. The 3MP models have a Tamron 3 to 9mm auto-focus zoom (AFZ) lens with P-Iris (an automatic ‘precise iris’ function), for image contrast, clarity, resolution and depth of field. The outdoor vandal domes are IK10, vandal-resistant rated and, as with the bullet cameras, are IP66 weather resistant-rated for outdoor use.
And the new Fisheye 360 panoramic view camera is designed for retail and overviews. It includes on-board “de-warping” software producing up to two corrected video stream views.
SD/SDHC card slots, Power over Ethernet (PoE) and ONVIF Profile S integration are standard across the new range, making the cameras compatible with most VMS (video management software). Webserver access for smartphone (iOS and Android) and tablets can be set up, allowing users to remotely view, monitor and control Grundig IP cameras from anywhere.
