The cameras feature a full 360 degree field of view that
eliminates blind spots, and enables multiple users to have an
independent pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) experience. The cameras low-profile
design allows it to be deployed in spaces where conventional
motorized PTZ cameras will not fit. Key features include full 1080p
resolution at 30fps with Panasonic’s exclusive Mega Super Dynamic
processing, on-board image correction to minimize optical
distortion and ensure highly accurate images, and multiple
transmission modes for versatile monitoring of wide areas with a
single camera. Additional intelligent features include face
detection and the ability to be controlled remotely via a
Smartphone.
The new i-PRO SmartHD 360° panoramic 3.0 megapixel dome cameras
incorporate H.264 high profile compression technology to minimize
transmission and recording bandwidth requirements. Up to a 50
percent reduction in network bandwidth is further achieved with
Panasonic's UniPhier® proprietary System LSI platform. H.264
maximum bit rate/client and total bit rate control provides
flexible network management, and Frame Rate Priority mode adjusts
bit rate and compression ratio to ensure a specified frame rate.
Multiple H.264 (high profile) streams and JPEG streams ensure
simultaneous real-time monitoring and high-resolution
recording.
“Panasonic once again responds to the needs of our clients with
the release of the new 360o cameras. The 3.1 megapixel in the
outdoor (WV-SF458) in single PTZ mode is perfect for attended
viewing,” said Giacomo Catucci, president of Advanced Telesystems.
“The indoor (WV-SF438) is ideal for our retail store clients where
it can replace up to four legacy cameras while reducing the cost of
staging, installation and cabling.”
Additional performance features include Panasonic's Mega Super
Dynamic and Adaptive Black Stretch (ABS) technologies that deliver
128x wider dynamic range compared to conventional cameras; 3D-DNR
digital noise reduction; Day/Night operation; Video Motion
Detection (VMD) with four programmable detection areas, 15-step
sensitivity levels and 10-step detection sizes; an SDXC/SDHC/SD
memory card slot for H.264/JPEG on-board edge recording, alarm
recording and/or backup recording upon network failure (JPEG); plus
full duplex bi-directional audio, which allows interactive
communication between the camera site and monitoring site.
The new 360° panoramic 3.0 megapixel dome cameras are ideal for
growing markets such as healthcare, education, hospitality and
retail in providing a safer environment for staff and visitors. In
addition, video surveillance systems are increasingly being used
for business optimization purposes such as targeted marketing,
supply chain optimization and facilities monitoring, and to address
issues relating to risk management, fraud and loss prevention.
