MOBOTIX D12 Concept
High-Resolution Live Video (640x480) with up to 30 Frames/s
The second generation of cameras from MOBOTIX now delivers smooth live video
display in VGA format with synchronous live audio, yet it keeps the network load to
a minimum (approx. 2 Mbps). Live video display now match the performance of
analog video systems. When recording, MOBOTIX systems easily outperform ana-
log systems, since MOBOTIX cameras store the same resolution and quality with
the same frame rates as in the live display. MOBOTIX technology thus allows
si-
multaneously
recording the video from
30 cameras in continuous recording
mode on one standard PC at 30 fps each, including the audio channel
of the
cameras.
Low Bandwidth Requirements
MOBOTIX' patent pending
MxPEG
streaming format allows fast live video with
audio at extremely low network load (1 to 2 Mbps). Since the MOBOTIX camera it-
self detects movements in the image, video is only transmitted if movements occur,
and when the video and audio data are stored.
Voice over IP and ISDN
Moreover,
MxPEG
provides for synchronized audio and two-way communication
between the camera and your computer. Room surveillance with audio is possible
using Internet Explorer or MxControlCenter. Alarm notification on your mobile via
Internet (SIP) or ISDN telephony is just as easy as event-controlled voice messages
directly from the camera.
IP Telephony and Video SIP
All telephone features can be used via Internet telephony thanks to the integrated
SIP client. The SIP client allows remote-controlling the camera using the touchtone
keys and also places the alarm calls of the camera. Video SIP establishes audio/
video connections to the camera using Windows Messenger or similar applications
(e.g. CounterPath X-Lite/eyebeam).
Long-Term Storage Included
MOBOTIX cameras have an integrated long-term storage system for Linux, Win-
dows and Mac OS X computers. Every camera manages its own storage space as
a ring buffer on the shared folder. Thanks to this decentralized approach, 30 live
cameras can store images on a regular Pentium 4-class computer with
30 fps
each
, including audio (also depends on the operating system).
Event Storage on SD Card
An SD card can be inserted into the integrated slot to increase the internal memory
of MOBOTIX D12 cameras (SD cards will be supported in future software versions).
A 2GB card can permanently store up to 65,000 images in CIF format, 40,000 im-
