Compact Dome Cameras Offer Flexibility

January 19, 2012
Panasonic compact dome camera

For transportation applications in buses, trains, subways, ambulances, taxis and armored cars, Panasonic System Networks Company of America announced a line of low-profile, compact dome network cameras. Panasonic’s i-PRO SmartHD WV-SW155 is a vandal-resistant Super Dynamic HD compact dome network camera combining full-frame 1280 by 960 H.264 images with Super Dynamic and ABS technologies to deliver 128X wider dynamic range when compared to conventional cameras, according to the company. The Face Super Dynamic Range technology allows for clear capture of facial images. The Panasonic i-PRO SmartHD WV-SF135 (pictured) is a HD dome network camera that provides full frame transmission of 1280 by 960 images using a 1.3 megapixel high-sensitivity MOS sensor. Additional features of the WV-SW155 and WV-SF135 include light sensitivity with day and night (electrical) function of 0.8 lux (color) and 0.6 lux (B/W) at F2.2. The cameras provide up to 16X electronic sensitivity enhancement and Variable Image Quality on Specified areas (VIQS), a technology that allows a designated area to retain higher image quality while excluding areas that have decreased image quality to lower the image file size and bit rate.
