Thermal camera manufacturer SightLogix has partnered with Videotec to integrate its SightTracker PTX~Z controller with Videotec’s Ulisse compact HD PTZ cameras, providing users with real-time detection for tracking and assessing outdoor intrusions.


The integration enhances SightTracker from supporting 1950 Videotec analogue cameras to controlling Videotec IP-based compact HD PTZ cameras, using ONVIF profile S. When used in conjunction with SightLogix smart thermal cameras, users can detect intruders over large areas and instantly verify targets with HD video from Videotec’s Ulisse compact domes.

The Ulisse compact HD offers a full HD image coupled with fast and accurate positioning and a 30x motorised zoom lens. In low light environments the camera’s coverage is up to 180m (600ft).

SightTracker uses GPS-based target information provided by an associated SightSensor detection camera to automatically guide the Ulisse compact HD to follow detected targets for greater detail without human intervention.

While machine vision techniques have been applied to traffic management applications for some years, in some areas there can still be a shortage of knowledge about what the technology can offer transportation professionals. The image processing and interpretation functions of machine vision enables control room staff to be immediately alerted to occurrences requiring attention which, in turn, enables each person
