Honeywell launches Pixim’s Seawolf chip powered security cameras

Pixim Inc., a leading provider of imaging chips for enterprise security cameras, announced that Honeywell, based in Morris Township, N.J., has released a new dome camera series, the HD4US and HD4USX, integrating Seawolf, Pixim's latest chip technology. The cameras are designed for optimised image quality in locations where low light, high contrast, and variable light conditions exist.

The weather-tight housing is engineered for both indoor and outdoor installations. The new vandal domes are available immediately through multiple distribution partners including ADI, the largest camera distributor worldwide, which supports over 80,000 security installers.

Based on Seawolf, Honeywell's HD4US camera family has an effective resolution of 690 HTVL as well as the industry's proven best wide dynamic range. In addition, the new dome cameras require just 0.1 lux of illumination to produce usable, colour images at a full 30 frames per second
