More About SurroundVideo® OmniCapturing a full 360° field-of-view, AV Costar® SurroundVideo® 360° panoramic IP megapixel cameras can be strategically placed to capture important details.
AV Costar® IP megapixel technology delivers superior image quality and reduces overall system cost by covering large areas with fewer cameras with outstanding clarity. An area typically requiring multiple pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) or fixed cameras can be covered with a single SurroundVideo® series camera. SurroundVideo® panoramic multi-sensor cameras easily capture moving objects throughout the day and night, delivering comprehensive coverage and forensic detail all without the need of an operator. SurroundVideo® series cameras are available in 5MP, 8MP, 12MP, 20MP, and 40MP resolutions.
The SurroundVideo G5 Mini housing features magnetic strips around the base to make mounting a snap. The top of the camera’s base magnetically attaches to the pre-installed surface mount plate, while the bottom of the base magnetically snaps to the bubble. This temporary magnetic solution holds the components in place while applying the screws and freeing your hands for a faster, easier installation. This makes SurroundVideo G5 Mini one of the easiest panoramic cameras to install on the market.
Beginning in 2006, AV Costar® pioneered the first 180° and 360° multi-sensor megapixel (MP) panoramic IP cameras, and has been leading the industry in multi-megapixel, multi-sensor technology ever since.
The SurroundVideo® G5 series features a P-iris motorized lens to easily focus each of the camera's sensors. Once mounted, the operator can quickly focus and position the camera remotely. This eliminates the need to adjust the camera while on a ladder. The simplicity of clicking “short range focus” or “full range focus” saves both time for installers and money for end users.
SurroundVideo® G5 IP megapixel cameras feature a factory-installed precision iris or “P-iris” lens. This ensures the best possible depth of field and image clarity for precise performance from each individual sensor. The P-iris lens provides an automatic, precise iris control for applications with varying lighting conditions.
The SurroundVideo® series incorporates a mechanical IR (infrared) cut filter for the highest image quality at any time of day. The true day/night technology ensures vivid images during the day and optimum monochrome performance at night. It instantly switches between modes based on the scene’s illumination.
SurroundVideo ® is designed for demanding environments. Subjected and certified to rigorous dust and water tests, the IP66 rating, and its extended low operating temperature range make it ideal for outdoor applications. The IK-10 rated, rugged cast-aluminum dome housing is perfect for deterring vandals since it can withstand the equivalent of
55 kg (120 lbs) of force.
