Cameras & Optics

The AUTODOME IP starlight 7000i camera incorporates the latest in Video Analytics, starlight technology, and video streaming. With starlight imaging technology for excellent low-light sensitivity and the most robust Intelligent Video Analytics on the market, the camera delivers unmatched picture quality. Even under the most challenging light conditions, the 30x PTZ dome camera delivers highdefinition (HD) 1080p video. Easy to install, the camera is available in either a field-proven, outdoor pendant housing or an indoor, in-ceiling housing.

Functions

Exceptional low-light performance
The 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.

High dynamic range
The dynamic range of the camera is outstanding and is obvious in real-world performance comparisons. In extended dynamic range mode, the camera uses an electronic shutter to capture four images with different exposure time and reproduce a high-contrast frame. The result is that you can view details in both the bright areas (highlights) and the dark areas (shadows) of a scene at the same time. You can easily distinguish objects and features (for example, faces) with bright backlight.

H.265 high-efficiency video encoding
The camera is designed on the most efficient and powerful H.264 and H.265/HEVC encoding platform. The camera is capable of delivering high-quality and high-resolution video with very low network load. With a doubling of encoding efficiency, H.265 is the new compression standard of choice for IP video surveillance systems.

Snap to zoom
Drawing a box in the image will trigger the camera to zoom to the correct position.

Intelligent Video Analytics on the edge
With built-in video content analysis (VCA), the camera reinforces the Intelligence-at-the-Edge concept where edge devices become increasingly intelligent. The camera comes with the state-of-the-art VCA method by Bosch, Intelligent Video Analytics, that reliably detects, and analyzes moving objects while suppressing unwanted alarms from spurious sources in the image. With this method, the camera is able to detect idle and removed objects as well as loitering, multiple line crossing, and trajectories. This method also supports BEV (Bird's Eye View) People counting.

Video analytics while camera is moving
Outside of pre-positions and even while the PTZ camera is moving, whether on guard tours or manually, the Intelligent Video Analytics application can detect and start alarms when objects are in alarm fields. These alarm fields are defined once across all PTZ camera views. The camera can automatically trigger an alarm if any part of a field within the camera's view becomes active while on a guard tour sweeping across the monitored areas.

Camera Trainer
Based on examples of target objects and non-target objects, the new Camera Trainer program uses machine learning to allow the user to define objects of interest and generate detectors for them. In contrast to the moving objects that the Intelligent Video Analytics application detects, the Camera Trainer program detects both moving and non-moving objects and classifies them immediately. Using Configuration Manager, you can configure the Camera Trainer program using both live video as well as recordings available through the respective camera. The resulting detectors can be downloaded and uploaded for distribution to other cameras.

Functions

Ruggedized design for extreme applications
The camera is designed to last in surveillance applications that are beyond the mechanical capabilities of conventional positioning systems. Theentire metal body is anodized and has been engineered to withstand high-impact, low-frequency vibration. The camera models comply to IK10 rating forimpact resistance and to the IEC 60068 standards applicable to vibration and shock.
The camera has a closed-loop positioning system. The system allows the camera to maintain its positionunder continuous vibration or after an extreme shockevent, even without homing or pre-position calibration.The camera benefits from Bosch domain knowledge inmaterial engineering and coatings. As a result, the superior metallurgy and the finish of the cameraprovide unprecedented protection against corrosion.

The camera has been tested to and meets the ISO 12944:6 standard C5-M - very high (marine) on Aluminum Housing Components.

Defroster on the viewing window

The window defroster helps to decrease or to prevent a build-up of ice on the camera window. Even in very cold environments, where other cameras suffer from frosted windows, the MIC camera lets you see more and see better.

Robust design rated to an industry-leading IP68, Type 6P, IK10
Subjected and certified to rigorous dust and immersion tests (IP68, Type 6P) and impact test (IK10), MIC cameras are perfectly suited for installation in even the most unforgiving environments. Anodized aluminum housing and robust, powder coat paint give unequalled corrosion protection to each MIC camera. Reliable O-ring seals completely protect the internal components from the external environment, meaning that there is no need to pressurize the camera. To guarantee unit integrity, the factory tests each MIC camera for leaks before shipping.

Fast performance
The 60 frames per second mode provides for optimum performance in fast action scenes that ensures no critical data is lost.

High Dynamic Range
The camera has High Dynamic Range. This 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.

Essential Video Analytics
The built-in video analysis reinforces the Intelligenceat-the-Edge concept and now delivers even more powerful features. Essential Video Analytics is ideal for use in controlled environments with limited detection ranges.
The system reliably detects, tracks, and analyzes objects, and alerts you when predefined alarms are triggered. A smart set of alarm rules makes complex tasks easy and reduces false alarms to a minimum. 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 Auto Exposure
Fluctuations in backlight and front light can ruin your images. To achieve the perfect picture in every situation, Intelligent Auto Exposure automatically adjusts the exposure of the camera. It offers superb front light compensation and incredible backlight compensation by automatically adapting to changing light conditions.
