IP mini-dome

by Mark Rowe

New from American Dynamics, part of the Security Products business unit of Tyco, is the Illustra compact IP mini-dome. It’s the most recent addition to its line of high-definition IP cameras. According to the manufacturers, these cameras are suitable for retail stores, commercial buildings, healthcare facilities, schools and banks. The camera delivers 720p and 1080p resolutions.

The compact size and discreet appearance blend into the background of any application, the company says. Features include motion detection, low-light performance with Soft Day/Night and DSS, digital wide dynamic range, 2D noise reduction, and for positioning a three-axis gimbal. The housing is IK10-rated, and can withstand severe impacts from anyone trying to disengage the camera, the makers add.

For surveillance of wide areas, the 1080p resolution model provides a 123 degree wide horizontal viewing angle. Stephan Beckmann, product marketing manager, Tyco Security Products EMEA, said: “The Illustra Compact Mini-Domes offer affordable, high-performance IP video that fit easily into new and existing surveillance applications. The discreet design is a perfect solution for companies who want cutting-edge IP video performance from a camera that preserves the integrity of its surroundings.”

The Illustra Compact Mini-Domes support the complete feature set of the ONVIF Profile S specification for IP cameras, which allows for a integration of recording platforms that comply with this specification. ONVIF Profile S aids end users and system designers in determining interoperable components of a security system.

As for installation , the Illustra mini-domes are supported by the latest version of the Illustra Connect camera configuration software. Using the Illustra Connect batch setup feature for IP address assignment makes the set up of multiple cameras automatic, saving time. And, to further save time, the Compact Mini-Domes lenses are factory-focused so there is no need for additional focusing.
