Features and Benefits
This is a cutting-edge digital video surveillance device. It can compress and transmit real time
images with outstanding image quality through a standard TCP/IP network. This device is your
best choice to build an intelligent IP surveillance system.
H.264/MPEG-4/MJPEG Triple Codec Dual Streaming
This device supports 3 compression formats, H.264, MPEG-4 and MJPEG. It brings superior
image quality at 30 frames per second in D1 (720 x 480) / VGA (640 x 480) / QVGA and
QQVGA. With hardware H.264 compression, the composite video inputs can be efficiently
compressed into H.264 stream without delay.
Wide Dynamic Range
This IP device includes a special process that enhances the view in the brightest and darkest
areas. This provides for more evenly illuminated image and brings out greater details to the
eye.
Built-in Hardware Motion Detection
No more external motion sensors are required. You may assign up to 3 video motion detection
areas. By tuning the object size and sensitivity, it will reliably detect objects passing though in
view. Hardware motion detection also offers better sensitivity and faster response time than
software motion detection.
Powerful Bundled Surveillance Software
To extend the capabilities of the device, a powerful surveillance program is included in the
package for free. Users can easily use an existing PC as a digital video recorder. Scheduled
recording and manual recording keep every important video recorded in the local hard disk.
Reliable and accurate motion detection with instant warning enables immediate response in
every condition. Quick and simple search and playback function lets you easily find the images
and video you want.
Software Development Kit Support
This device can be integrated or controlled by applications from third party software developers.
Software developers can save considerable efforts by using our Streaming Library or ActiveX
control. Please contact us for details on integration support.
