VIVOTEK releases 5-megapixel box-type security cameras IP8172/72P

VIVOTEK has announced its first 5-Megapixel box cameras IP8172 and IP8172P (with P-iris lens). The 5-Megapixel box cameras deliver 1080p Full HD video to meet the requirements of even the most demanding surveillance applications. With its introduction of the IP8172 and IP8172P, VIVOTEK now fields a comprehensive line-up of 5-megapixel security cameras, which also includes fisheye, fixed dome, and bullet models.  In addition to their high-resolution video capabilities, VIVOTEK's new cameras offer a full complement of other features to enhance picture quality and extend functionality. Built-in focus assist allows users to adjust focus precisely, while the IP8172P's P-iris lens utilizes a built-in stepper motor to maintain the lens iris at an optimal aperture even when lighting conditions change, for superior clarity and depth of field. Both models provide WDR enhancement to ensure detail is captured throughout the field of view even when both bright and dimly illuminated areas are present. Multiple streams support, SD/SDHC/SDXC card storage, and bundled 32-channel recording software add further to these cameras' appeal.  Director of Brand Business at VIVOTEK, William Ku, stated, "We're extremely pleased to offer our customers these new cameras. The incredible Full HD picture quality will make challenging surveillance applications like monitoring crowds in wide-open spaces such as train stations or shopping malls much easier and reliable. And we're equally happy that the IP8172 and IP8172P now make our line-up of 5-megapixel security solutions complete."

VIVOTEK CC8130(HS) height strip network camera for facial recognition

The VIVOTEK CC8130(HS) is a height-strip network camera equipped with a 180 degree wide-angle lens, delivering clear images for reliable facial recognition. An ideal installation height of 170cm (5.5 ft) allows the CC8130(HS) to capture clear facial images at eye view, even when the subject is wearing a hat or hood. In addition, the plug and play design makes the CC8130(HS) installation simple and rapid. Combining low-profile and high- level features, the CC8130(HS) is ideal for discreet indoor applications, such as retail, banks, restaurants, small businesses and particularly in cashier areas. To dramatically reduce file sizes and conserve valuable network bandwidth, the CC8130(HS) supports the industry-standard H.264 compression technology. Combined with the ST7501 multi-lingual 32-channel recording software, users can quickly and easily set up an IP surveillance system that's simple to operate but hard to beat. "Capturing clear facial images is one of the most critical issues in surveillance. One solution is to mount the camera at eye-level, but this increases the risk of vandalism. VIVOTEK, the professional solution provider, is proud to release the CC8130(HS) with discreet eye-level mounting, allowing capture of clearer facial images than ceiling-mounted cameras, even when subjects wear hats or hoods," said Tim Su, Director, Marketing Division at VIVOTEK. "Additionally, the CC8130(HS) offers graduated and color-coded height measurements in both U.S. and Metric units to meet the needs of users all over the world."

VIVOTEK‘s first megapixel WDR fixed domes make debut at ISC West
VIVOTEK‘s first megapixel WDR fixed domes make debut at ISC West

VIVOTEK proudly presents FD8135H and FD8335H, two of its first megapixel fixed dome network cameras with Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) technology. Both models were on display at ISC West, where they made their first appearance.  Not only are VIVOTEK FD8135H and FD8335H both 1 megapixel with 720p viewing resolution up to 30 frames per second (fps), they come with HD WDR CMOS sensor to cope with challenging lighting conditions. The WDR feature allows the camera to capture both the dark and bright parts of an image and combines the differences to generate a highly realistic image representative of the original scene, enabling it to provide video quality close to the capabilities of the human eye. The implementation of WDR technology allows the FD8135H and FD8335H to be widely applicable in high contrast environments such as lobby entrances, parking lots, ATM machines, loading areas and much more. The P-iris lens controls the iris with extreme precision; with its built-in stepper motor, it maintains the iris opening at an optimal level at all times, resulting in superior image clarity and depth of field as well as image quality.“We are absolutely thrilled about the launch of our first megapixel fixed domes with WDR technology. ISC West is the perfect place for them to make their debut,” said Harry Hu, President of VIVOTEK USA. “Although there are many choices when it comes to network cameras, none of them comes close to the usability, affordability and reliability of VIVOTEK.” Other models and technology to be showcased at the VIVOTEK booth include the newly launched 5-Megapixel line-up from VIVOTEK, enabling users to take a new level of detail with VIVOTEK’s 5MP solution. ISC West took place in Las Vegas, Nevada from March 28 to March 30 at Sands Expo & Convention Center.
