CHELMSFORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Axis Communications, the market leader in network video, today launched new visual, bispectral and thermal positioning cameras.
Features in the new positioning cameras include:
- High speed and smooth PTZ movements with continuous pan
- Built-in electronic image stabilization (EIS), helping against vibration caused by an unstable mounting surface or a wind-sensitive mast.
- SFP slot for easy cable management, and quick and effective installation for fiber-optic connection over long distances
- Powerful positioning capabilities during high wind and wide temperature ranges
- Flexible mounting options
“Our customers need to be able to rapidly identify and respond to incidents and breaches along perimeters,” said Ryan Zatolokin, Senior Technologist, Axis Communications, Inc. “These new range of positioning cameras provide faster pan and tilt capabilities which results in faster response time and a more secure perimeter.”
The new range includes thermal positioning cameras, visual PTZ positioning cameras and bispectral PTZ positioning cameras.
AXIS Q8641-E and AXIS Q8642-E PT Thermal Network Cameras
The
thermal positioning cameras offer outstanding thermal contrast and 10°
field of view, which together with analytics, enables long-range
detection and immediate visual confirmation for the operator.
AXIS Q8685-E/-LE PTZ Network Cameras
The visual PTZ
positioning cameras, offer high-video quality with HDTV 1080p, 30x zoom
with focus recall, and extreme light sensitivity. The combination of
Axis’ Forensic Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) and low-light sensitivity
ensures the highest image usability in challenging lighting conditions.
AXIS Q8741-E and AXIS Q8742-E Bispectral PTZ Network Cameras
The
bispectral PTZ positioning cameras, offer a combination of two live
video streams, one from a thermal sensor – used for detection and
verification - and one from a high-definition visual sensor - for
identification of colors and details. The cameras also feature 30x zoom,
Forensic WDR as well as low-light sensitivity.
Additionally, AXIS Q8741-LE, AXIS Q8742-LE and AXIS Q8685-LE include long-life and long-range IR for improved visibility at night. In places where there is a high risk of window contamination from dust, salt, sand and fuel emissions these cameras are equipped with remote-maintenance against rain and dirt using a wiper and washer.
The cameras will be available through Axis’ standard distribution channels in Q2 – Q3 2017. The suggested retail price for AXIS Q8641-E and AXIS Q8642-E ranges from $5,799 to $9,499; AXIS Q8685-E and Q8685-LE ranges from $3,599 to $5,199 and AXIS Q87 Series ranges from $9,999 to $14,599.
