The Honeywell HCD545X colour camera is ideally suited for use in 24/7 surveillance
applications. The HCD545X adapts to varying lighting conditions to ensure the
highest quality picture even in very low light. When the light level drops too low for
accurate video identification in colour, the camera automatically moves the IR cut
filter out of the optical path and then switches to black and white video to capture
more detail using the increased sensitivity of the CCD to IR light. The camera uses
internal logic or an external LAMP connector to control the switchover from colour to
black and white. This improves the reliability of the operation of the camera in difficult
installations or lighting conditions.
An on-screen text menu simplifies all set-up and adjustment options. Menu
navigation is simple and picture adjustments can be made in a matter of seconds
with easy-to-use pushbuttons on the back of the camera. The HCD545X includes an
automatic electronic shutter for changes in light level, and automatic backlight
compensation option for viewing backlit scenes. The HCD545X produces 540 TV
lines of resolution for applications requiring the highest level of sharpness in video
quality as well as providing reliable video quality even in low light conditions down to
0.1 lux, or 0 lux with auxiliary infrared lighting.
Market Opportunities
The HCD545X is designed for high resolution 24/7 surveillance applications,
including those using infrared illumination. This includes general indoor surveillance
applications in retail, financial, and other commercial markets. Combined with
the AVH environmental housing, the HCD545X can be used as a solution for outdoor
applications such as car parks, building entranceways, and driveways.
