Axis Communications once again used a little bit of magic to introduce its new and innovative products. This year’s press breakfast featured Haken Hansson, the company’s global product manager, audio who entertained those in attendance with magic tricks.
Martin Gren, founder of Axis Communications and Fredrik Nilsson, Vice President, Americas, joined the fun by incorporating a game of Security Industry Jeopardy, to discuss several new products, including the AXIS Companion Eye mini L, a fixed mini dome with a compact design for indoor use, and AXIS Companion Bullet mini LE, an outdoor-ready fixed, bullet-style camera. In addition to built-in IR for surveillance in dark conditions, both cameras offer high-quality video in HDTV 1080p and 2 MP resolution, wide dynamic range technology to handle scenes with complex light conditions and require AXIS Companion Recorder for system completion. The cameras, which are designed for the small business market to use with AXIS Companion Video Management Software, are 70% smaller than the existing AXIS Companion cameras, making them ideal for discreet installations in small business environments such as restaurants, small boutiques shops and office spaces.
