Bosch FLEXIDOME IP Starlight 7000 VR 1080p FM Dome Camera, 3-9mm SR Lens
This camera provides clear images 24/7 - even at night or under low-light conditions. The exceptional starlight sensitivity enables this camera to work with a minimum of ambient light. The extended dynamic mode provides detailed images in scenes with challenging lighting.The camera is available in 1080p or 720p resolution versions and provides up to 60 images per second. The aesthetic vandal-resistant housing makes the camera suitable for indoor or outdoor installation.FunctionsExceptional low-light performanceThe latest sensor technology combined with the sophisticated noise suppression results in an exceptional sensitivity in color. The low-light performance is so good that the camera continues to provide excellent color performance even with a minimum of ambient light.Fast performanceThe 60 images-per-second mode provides for optimum performance in fast action scenes and is particularly suitable for casino and banking applications.Extended dynamic range modeThe extended dynamic range mode is based on a multiple-exposure process that captures more details in the highlights and in the shadows even in the same scene. The result is that you can easily distinguish objects and features, for example, faces with bright backlight.The actual dynamic range of the camera is measured using Opto-Electronic Conversion Function (OECF) analysis according to IEC 62676 Part 5. This method is used to provide a standard result which can be used to compare different cameras.Content Based Imaging TechnologyContent Based Imaging Technology (CBIT) is used to radically improve image quality in all lighting conditions and to identify areas for enhanced processing. The camera examines the scene using Intelligent Video Analytics and provides feedback to retune the image processing. This provides better detail in the areas that matter and better all-round performance. With IVA, the Intelligent Auto Exposure technology, for example, allows you to view moving objects in bright and dark areas of a scene.Intelligent Video AnalyticsThe built-in video analytics is both robust and intelligent. The Intelligence-at-the-Edge concept now delivers even more powerful features: Simple calibration False alarm reduction Extended range identification Crowd and queue management Density and flow counting The mission critical video analytics reliably detects, tracks, and analyzes objects, and alerts you when predefined alarms are triggered. A smart set of alarm rules, together with object filters and tracking modes, makes complex tasks easy.The system is also extremely robust and is able to reduce false alarms, for example from foliage or shaking objects, even in harsh weather conditions. Metadata is attached to your video to add sense and structure. This enables you to quickly retrieve the relevant images from hours of stored video. Metadata can also be used to deliver irrefutable forensic evidence or to optimize business processes based on people counting or crowd density information.Calibration is quick and easy - just enter the height of the camera. The internal gyro/accelerometer sensor provides the rest of the information to precisely calibrate the video analytics.Intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction reduces bandwidth and storage requirementsThe camera uses Intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction which actively analyzes the contents of a scene and reduces noise artifacts accordingly.The low-noise image and the efficient H.264 compression technology provide clear images while reducing bandwidth and storage by up to 50% compared to other H.264 cameras. This results in reduced-bandwidth streams that still retain a high image quality and smooth motion. The camera provides the most usable image possible by cleverly optimizing the detail-to-bandwidth ratio.Area-based encodingArea-based encoding is another feature which reduces bandwidth. Compression parameters for up to eight user-definable regions can be set. This allows uninteresting regions to be highly compressed, leaving more bandwidth for important parts of the scene.Multiple streamsThe innovative multi-streaming feature delivers various H.264 streams together with an M JPEG stream. These streams facilitate bandwidth-efficient viewing and recording as well as integration with third-party video management systems.Regions of interest and E-PTZRegions of Interest (ROI) can be user defined. The remote E-PTZ (Electronic Pan, Tilt and Zoom) controls allow you to select specific areas of the parent image. These regions produce separate streams for remote viewing and recording. These streams, together with the main stream, allow the operator to separately monitor the most interesting part of a scene while still retaining situational awareness.Intelligent Tracking can follow objects within the defined regions of interest. Intelligent Tracking can autonomously detect and track moving objects or the user can click on an object which the tracker will then follow.Storage managementRecording management can be controlled by the Bosch Video Recording Manager (Video Recording Manager) or the camera can use iSCSI targets directly without any recording software.Edge recordingInsert a memory card into the card slot to store up to 2 TB of local alarm recording. Pre-alarm recording in RAM reduces recording bandwidth on the network, and extends the effective life of the memory card.Cloud-based servicesThe camera supports time-based or alarm-based JPEG posting to four different accounts. These accounts can address FTP servers or cloud-based storage facilities (for example, Dropbox). Video clips or JPEG images can also be exported to these accounts.Alarms can be set up to trigger an e-mail or SMS notification so you are always aware of abnormal events.Automatic image rotationThe integrated gyro/accelerometer sensor automatically corrects the image orientation in steps of 90 degree if the camera is mounted at right angles or upside down. The sensor image can also be rotated manually through steps of 90 degree.To efficiently capture details in long hallways without loss of resolution, mount the camera at right angles. The image is displayed upright at full resolution on your monitor.Scene modesThe camera has a very intuitive user interface that allows fast and easy configuration. Nine configurable modes are provided with the best settings for a variety of applications. Different scene modes can be selected for day or night situations.Hybrid operationA surge-protected analog video output allows full hybrid operation. This means that high resolution IP video streaming and an analog video output are available simultaneously. The hybrid functionality offers an easy migration path from legacy CCTV to a modern IP-based system.Aesthetic vandal resistant designThe compact aesthetic design is suitable for installations where housing size and appearance are important. The cast-aluminum housing, polycarbonate window, and hardened inner liner can withstand the equivalent of 55 kg (120 lbs) of force (IK10). The camera is also protected against water and dust. Using the proprietary pan/tilt/rotation mechanism, installers can select the exact field of view. Mounting options are numerous, including surface, wall, corner, and suspended-ceiling mounting.True day/night switchingThe camera is a true day/night camera with a mechanical filter for vivid daytime color and exceptional night-time imaging while maintaining sharp focus under all lighting conditions. The filter can be switched remotely, or automatically via a light level sensor or contact input.Data securitySpecial measures have been put in place to ensure the highest level of security for device access and data transport. The three-level password protection with security recommendations allows users to customize device access. Web browser access can be protected using HTTPS and firmware updates can also be protected with authenticated secure uploads.The on-board Trusted Platform Module (TPM) and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) support, guarantee superior protection from malicious attacks. The 802.1x network authentication with EAP/TLS, supports TLS 1.2 with updated cipher suites including AES 256 encryption.The advanced certificate handling offers: Self-signed unique certificates automatically created when required Client and server certificates for authentication Client certificates for proof of authenticity Certificates with encrypted private keysComplete viewing softwareThere are many ways to access the camera's features: using a web browser, with the Bosch Video Management System, with the free-of-charge Bosch Video Client or Video Security Client, with the video security mobile app, or via third-party software.Video security appThe Bosch video security mobile app has been developed to enable Anywhere access to HD surveillance images allowing you to view live images from any location.
