Panomera V8 from Dallmeier receives the iF Design Award 2026

The Panomera V8 from Dallmeier has been awarded the prestigious iF Design Award 2026. This award is recognized as one of the world’s most renowned design honors.
 

International recognition for design and functionality

The iF Design Award is presented by iF International Forum Design GmbH, one of the world’s longest-established independent design institutions. For over 70 years, it has been recognized globally as a symbol of outstanding design excellence. This year, more than 10,000 submissions from 68 countries were entered into the competition. The Panomera V8 from Dallmeier impressed the international jury of 129 independent design experts with its holistic concept combining form, function, and technological performance.
 

Award-winning product design

The award was granted in the product discipline, category cameras, recognizing the innovative and exceptional design of the Panomera V8.
 
The Panomera V8 is part of a modular product family with a strong visual identity, designed to integrate seamlessly into a wide range of architectural environments. A distinctive design element is the integrated light indicator, which signals the operating status (recording or standby mode), thereby contributing to greater transparency for the public. Equipped with eight lenses, the Panomera V8 delivers seamless 180° coverage without blind spots. Sunshields separate the lens levels and protect them from environmental influences. At the same time, usability has been optimized holistically – from production and transport to installation, operation, maintenance, and upgrades.
 

Design meets technological innovation

The Panomera cameras from Dallmeier are based on patented multifocal sensor technology and enable high-resolution capture of large areas with minimal hardware requirements. This allows operators to benefit from a particularly low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), as both installation and operating costs are significantly reduced.
 
By combining intelligent system architecture with sophisticated product design, the Panomera offers a powerful and future-proof solution for modern security applications.
