At GSX 2019, on booth 251, Hanwha Techwin America, a supplier of IP and analogue video surveillance solutions, will announce its latest multi-sensor cameras. The new cameras feature motorised varifocal lenses for precise control of focal length, angle of view and zoom for each direction.

Each sensor supports remote PTRZ (pan, tilt, rotate, zoom) control for efficient installation and easy adjustment. The 2MP PNM-9084RVQZ and 5MP PNM-9085RVQZ feature built-in IR illumination for each sensor while the PNM-9084VQZ is a compact and cost efficient four channel PTRZ camera. Focused on cost savings for both installers and end users, multi-sensor cameras use less cable, conduit and mounting hardware and require fewer ports on the switch and VMS licenses due to their single IP connection.

Multi-sensor cameras

Our multi-sensor cameras offer savings beyond just reduction in camera placements and network"

Unlike fisheye lenses, multi-sensor cameras have more pixels focused in each direction with a broad range of customisable angles and zoom settings per lens. All sensors feature up to 60fps per channel for smooth motion capture and up to 150dB WDR (wide dynamic range) for enhanced image quality and a suite of license-free onboard analytics powered by Hanwha’s Wisenet 5 chipset.

“Our multi-sensor cameras offer savings beyond just reduction in camera placements and network,” said Ray Cooke, Vice President of Solution & Product Management, Hanwha Techwin America. “The PTRZ varifocal lenses make installation adjustment more efficient than ever – and all the more so for adjusting the view after installation. Plus with WiseStream II compression technology and H.265 you can see reduced bandwidth and storage”

Multi-sensor camera models and their key features are as follows:

  • PNM-9084QZ: 2MP x 4ch, 3~6mm motorised-varifocal lenses, PTRZ
  • PNM-9084RQZ: 2MP x 4ch, IR, 3.2~10mm motorised-varifocal lenses, PTRZ
  • PNM-9085RQZ: 5MP x 4ch, IR, 3.6~9.4mm motorised-varifocal lenses, PTRZ
