AMGPanogenics has announced the development of a series of new 360 degree, 5 megapixel security cameras. The PanoCam360 range, which has no moving parts whatsoever, streams 12.5 frames per second and the on-board de-warping reduces the processing requirement back in the control room. AMG claims that offering up to 14 de-warped video streams/independent camera views simultaneously alongside the full-resolution fish-eye view, makes the PanoCam360 the most powerful and versatile 360 degree camera range available, providing complete situational awareness from a single camera.

According to Dr Alan Hayes, founder and MD of 558 AMG Systems: “To the best of our knowledge, there is no other 360 degree camera available offering such a high number of simultaneous streams from the camera combined with a 12.5fps frame rate. PanoCam360 is already fully integrated with a number of renowned NVR/video management products.”.

    David Crawford reviews developments in temporary ITS. Widespread take-up of technologies such as Bluetooth and wi-fi are encouraging the emergence of more sophisticated, while still cost effective, ITS responses to the traffic issues posed by temporary road situations such as work zones and special events. Andy Graham of traffic solutions specialists White Willow Consulting says: “A machine-to-machine radio link is far easier and cheaper than reading characters on a plate.” There can be other plusses.
