Digital Watchdog (DW), the industry leader in digital recorders, surveillance cameras and related management software, announces the availability of the world’s first AHD (Analogue High Definition) multi-sensor camera. The new STAR-LIGHT AHD PANO™ 6MP Camera offers 3x1080p AHD image sensors to provide panoramic 180° views. The camera will be demonstrated at the ISC West Security Industry Trade Show, April 6-8, 2016, in Las Vegas, Nevada, Booth 17089.
Panoramic camera benefits for existing CCTV installations
With user-friendly features such as UTC for full OSD control using existing coaxial cables, Digital Watchdog AHD high resolution solutions have been engineered to utilise an existing analogue system, increasing ROI by reducing installation time and complexity to provide an HD surveillance solution in minutes.
“Until now, the multi-sensor value proposition that lets you see more from one installation has only been available in IP cameras,” said Mark Espenschied, Director of Marketing, Digital Watchdog. “Digital Watchdog has again pioneered video surveillance technology by bringing the benefits of panoramic cameras to existing CCTV installations with stunning 6MP HD resolution and image clarity.”
Groundbreaking STAR-LIGHT AHD™ High Definition Cameras use existing coaxial cables to transmit crystal-clear detailed 1080p images at up to 30fps. The PANO models have three BNC connectors, one for each sensor, plus a fourth BNC out that provides a stitched 180° view perfect for display on a public monitor. The video streams can be brought into the CMS ina 180° view by placing them side by side (three across). The cameras offer fixed 4.3mm lenses and powerful features such as Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) and True Day/Night with Mechanical IR Cut Filters.
The STAR-LIGHT AHD cameras are engineered to work with VMAX AHD DVRs, offering an easy upgrade from analogue to high definition surveillance using existing or new infrastructure for a cost-effective, high resolution surveillance solution.
Digital Watchdog will begin shipping the cameras in May 2016.
