The Honeywell HCD544 True Day/Night camera is ideally suited for use in 24/7
surveillance applications. The HCD544 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 color, 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 color 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 setup 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 HCD544 includes
an automatic electronic shutter for changes in light level, and automatic backlight
compensation option for viewing backlit scenes. The HCD544 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 HCD544 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 HHC12 environmental housing, the HCD544 can be used as a solution for
outdoor applications such as parking lots, building entranceways, and driveways.
