Features of the VB101
The VB101 is a system that distributes live videos via the Internet or an Intranet. It can be used in a wide
variety of applications such as distributing live videos or monitoring from a Web site. The system is
configured of the VB101 and viewer software. Please use the supplied viewer software to view videos
distributed from the VB101 or to control a camera.
■
Broad band Video Distribution Function
Video can be captured at a maximum of 30 fps. Motion-JPEG is used to compress the video
images. The network auto switches between Ethernet 100 MBPS and 10 Mbps, and if a PC card
modem is used, the analog public line network or the PFS network (PIAFS) can also be used.
Since video quality (1-99) and the frame rate (0.1-30 fps) can be freely set, video can be
distributed under conditions that best suit the network bandwidth.
■
Simultaneous video reception by up to 40 users
Up to 40 clients can view videos simultaneously with a single VB101 unit.
■
Remote camera control from the viewer
Two types of viewer software are provided: Helper Viewer and Java Viewer. These viewers can
be used to freely control the angle (pan and tilt) and the zoom magnification of cameras installed
in a remote location, enabling viewing videos with plenty of ambiance.
■
Control for up to 4 cameras
Up to 4 video cameras can be connected to the VB101, and videos that you view can be switched
from the viewer. If Canon Communications VC-C4/VC-C4R cameras are used, you will be able to
control all cameras (using the cascade function of the VC-C4/VC-C4R).
■
Panorama picture creation function and various settings
The camera's entire recordable area can be created as a panorama picture and saved. The saved
picture can then be used to easily and visually set view restrictions and presets.
■
Camera position preset function
When presets such as camera angles (direction in which camera is aimed or zoom position) are
stored in advance, the camera can be controlled by simply selecting the desired preset from the
viewer. Up to 8 sets of presets can be stored.
■
View restriction function
Restrictions can be applied to zoom magnifications and angle settings to
prevent viewers from seeing certain camera angles. When using the VB101 to
operate a fixed point camera over the Internet, for example, it is possible to
consider privacy when distributing videos (page 1, "Request Concerning the
Disclosure of Live Pictures").
■
Built-in Web server and FTP server
The VB101 has a built-in Web server. If Web page data is written onto a flash memory card (sold
separately), the VB101 will be able to distribute Web pages and videos over the Web. Since the
VB101 also has a built-in FTP server, Web page data can be sent from a remote location as a file
(FTP).
