Extra Info
Seamless Stitching for Total Coverage
Unlike traditional multi-sensor cameras that produce disjointed images, the P3827-PVE delivers a seamless 180° panoramic view thanks to factory-aligned lenses and image stitching. This means fewer gaps, better situational awareness, and cleaner evidence in critical moments.
Optimized for Challenging Light
In environments where lighting changes drastically—like entrances or corridors with strong sunlight and shadows—Forensic WDR and Lightfinder work together to ensure details are captured clearly. Lightfinder gives you full-color imaging in low light, while WDR balances extremes of brightness and dark.
Built for the Outdoors
Its tough design withstands both natural elements and human tampering. IP66-rated for water and dust, IK10-rated for impact resistance, and NEMA 4X-certified, it’s ideal for public-facing deployments, including transportation hubs and building exteriors.
Smarter Surveillance with Built-In Analytics
The camera supports edge analytics—meaning it can detect motion, count people, or identify perimeter breaches without needing external processing. Installers and users alike benefit from faster deployment and fewer false positives.
Efficient Without Compromise
With Axis Zipstream and H.264/H.265 support, this camera offers high-quality footage without draining network resources. It’s ideal for systems with multiple cameras or long-term video retention requirements.
