Extra Info
AI-Powered Face Detection & Attributes
This advanced face analytics system does more than just detect a face—it can identify a range of demographic and behavioral attributes, including:
- Gender
- Age group
-
Facial expressions (emotion)
-
Eyewear detection (glasses/sunglasses)
- Beard or no beard
- Face mask presence
These insights can support business intelligence, access control, or visitor behavior analysis, making it suitable for smart retail, offices, and public surveillance.
Perimeter Protection with Target Filtering
Combines AI-powered classification to identify people and vehicles and ignore irrelevant motion. Detection capabilities include:
- Tripwire crossing
- Intrusion into zones
- Loitering detection
- Fast-moving object alerts
- Illegal parking detection
- People gathering monitoring
This makes it highly effective for event-driven surveillance with fewer false positives.
Motorised Lens (2.7–12 mm)
The integrated motorised varifocal lens allows you to remotely adjust the field of view:
-
2.7mm – for wide-angle shots covering entrances or courtyards
-
12mm – for zoomed-in views of gates, fences, or distant areas
This flexibility means you can fine-tune the scene without needing to physically access the camera.
Smart IR Night Vision (up to 50 m)
The camera adjusts IR brightness based on the distance of subjects, delivering evenly lit, detailed black-and-white images in complete darkness. Paired with Starlight technology, it also maintains color video in low-light for:
- Clearer face and vehicle identification
- Reduced overexposure of close objects
Queue Management & In-Area Alerts
Set up rules to monitor:
- Wait time
- Number of people in a line
- People staying too long in a defined zone
Triggers alerts when thresholds are exceeded—ideal for retail checkout lines, bank counters, or public entryways.
ePoE for Long Cable Runs
Supports Enhanced Power over Ethernet (ePoE) for long-distance data and power transmission—up to:
-
800 meters over Ethernet
-
1,000 meters with coaxial cable (when paired with ePoE switches/extenders)
This reduces the need for multiple repeaters or local power supplies, making it perfect for large sites like warehouses, parking lots, or campuses.
