Bosch MIC IP fusion 9000i

MassMediaLink India LLP SecurityLink IndiaSeptember 2, 2018November 14, 202404 mins

The Bosch MIC IP fusion 9000i camera has been nominated as a finalist at the Benchmark Innovation Awards 2018, a scheme which recognizes and rewards innovative thinking and smart design. Made for the extremes When developing the MIC IP fusion 9000i, Bosch went to extreme measures to ensure it performs at its best even when the weather is at its worst. That’s why the camera body is constructed from solid metal, capable of withstanding high winds, rain, fog, dust and 100% humidity (UL Type 6P and IP68), extreme vibrations (IEC60068) and high impacts (IK10). The MIC IP fusion 9000i is also designed to be fully operational in extremely cold conditions – down to -40°C – with the added protection of a window-defrosting function, so it continues to capture high quality video at very low temperatures. Maximum situational awareness Just as the weather is unpredictable, there are scenarios that nobody can ever foresee such as the sudden torrential downpour that reduces visibility on the roads, the busy railway yard gripped by arctic temperatures, the national border crossing shrouded in desert dust and so on. In these extreme instances, when objects can become ‘invisible,’ the MIC IP fusion 9000i has been proven to remain effective thanks to metadata fusion. This unique capability is made possible by the camera’s two built-in imagers – optical and thermal – in conjunction with the built-in intelligent video analytics. By fusing the metadata of both imagers, users are provided with full situational awareness, regardless of whether it’s the optical or thermal video stream that’s being monitored. For example, should a situation arise when the optical imager is obscured, like in a smoke-filled tunnel, data from the event will still be captured by the thermal imager. If an event is detected but not sufficiently visible in the video stream being watched, an alarm is always triggered notifying users to simply click the alarm overlay box. The user will then see the video data related to that event. Another standout innovation of the MIC IP fusion 9000i is the ability to use video analytics whilst moving, so when the camera is performing a panning, tilting or zooming move and detects a mobile object in a prohibited area it delivers an alert which activates the intelligent tracking feature to automatically track the object and dynamically adjust the field of view, to capture objects in great detail. Like all Bosch cameras, the MIC IP fusion 9000i is fully equipped to join the vast infrastructure of lighting, sensors and smart devices that will make daily security operations completely seamless, intuitive and protected.

MassMediaLink India LLP SecurityLink IndiaSeptember 1, 2018November 14, 202404 mins

Hikvision has won the Video Surveillance Hardware category in the Benchmark Innovation Awards 2018. The winning Hikvision product was the iDS-2CD8426G0/B-I DeepinView dual-lens behaviour analysis camera, which uses cutting-edge deep learning algorithms to analyse human movement for improved safety inside buildings. Technology magazine Benchmark holds its Innovation Awards every year. The 2018 Video Surveillance Hardware category was strongly contested, with Hikvision competing against four other providers for the title. Gary Harmer, Sales Director for Hikvision UK & Ireland says, “Innovation is at the heart of our business, driven by our extensive research and development. We’re thrilled that Benchmark recognises how the innovative features we deliver with the iDS-2CD8426G0/B-I make a real difference to the safety of our end customers.” The features behind the winning camera The iDS-2CD8426G0/B-I provides a broad range of cutting-edge features that are not found in typical indoor surveillance systems. Instead of just detecting moving targets, it uses deep learning, stereo imaging algorithms and high speed GPU processing to analyse human body movements. As a result, it can be used to identify a potential human threat or a personal safety issue in real time. For example, the camera can iden tify when people have fallen down, and this is gaining interest particularly among retail and healthcare organisations and for lone worker applications. Another feature is loitering detection, by setting up a specific distance within a defined region of interest. If a person’s movement exceeds the pre-set distance, an alarm will be triggered. Innovation across the product range The iDS-2CD8426G0/B-I is part of the broader Hikvision DeepinView series of cameras, which is designed to boost surveillance system performance across a range of security and management applications. The Hikvision DeepinView series cameras offer features such as: Human body detection, which can detect human bodies while filtering out other movements, in order to reduce false alarms. Facial recognition, which uses facial image modeling and similarity calculation to alert system operators to the presence of persons of interest. People counting, which uses video analytics to track the number of people who enter and exit a particular area, enabling businesses to improve their profitability and site management. Illegal parking detection, whereby the system user is able to set illegal parking zone or the maximum parking time. As soon as the vehicle enters the zone, or its parking time surpass the limit, the camera is triggered to collect the evidence. Queue detection, whereby the camera is capable of providing real time alerts and historic information post event on queue waiting time, queue density, etc.
