Sony Electronics continues to expand its range of outdoor security applications with two new infrared (IR) bullet cameras, the SNC-EB632R and SNC-EB602R.
Both IPELA ENGINE EX IP cameras come equipped with Sony's Exmor CMOS sensors for exceptional light sensitivity performance, and also feature Sony's unique Wide Dynamic View-DR technology working together with built-in IR illuminators to capture objects clearly even under severe backlight or highlight conditions, and in very dark conditions as well. The Advanced IR Technology is also able to deliver clear B/W images of close and distant objects without overexposure.
For colour images, the 1080p SNC-EB632R camera can produce color video with a minimum illumination of 0.1 lux at 50 IRE. The SNC-EB602R is a 720p camera which can produce color video with a minimum illumination of 0.05 lux at 50 IRE. At 50 IRE, the SNC-EB602R supports IR illumination up t25 meters, while the SNC-EB632R supports IR illumination up to 30 meters.
True to its outdoor surveillance purpose, both cameras are IP66 rated to be water-proof and dust-tight, have adjustable sunshade to prevent lens flare effect, and are built to withstand extreme temperatures of -30 to 50 ℃. Both have also been fitted with image stabilization technology to minimize unnecessary camera shake from ambient vibrations, and deliver smooth images.
Both are expected to be available in the third quarter of 2014, and will be supported by major VMS providers, including Aimetis, DVTEL, Envysion, Exacq Technologies, Genetec, Milestone Systems, OnSSI, Salient Systems and Video Insight.
