Japanese optics manufacturer 8146 Tamron has released two motorised high-power (36x) zoom lenses for C-mount box-type cameras, which it says assure 24-hour day-and-night surveillance in full-HD image quality for security applications. 

Both the M118ZG36X10IRPF and M118ZG36X10IRP lenses feature a long focal length of 10-360 mm for use in a wide range of applications that mandate day-and-night surveillance over a wide area. Their wide aperture of F/1.6 enables high-sensitivity image capture at large zoom ratios, assuring surveillance under dim and low light illumination. Both accommodate the 1/1.8-inch imagers widely adopted in the market and are equipped with a preset function for focus and zoom. In addition, the M118ZG36X10IRPF has a fog-removal feature.

    It would be easy to fall into the trap of seeing machine vision as the vision-based solution for ITS and traffic, however Patrik Anderson, Director Business Development Transportation of Axis Communications, notes that many of the applications which are coming to be associated with machine vision – and, indeed, many of the characteristics, such as at-the-edge analytics and image processing – are also possible with open-standard networked video. Networked video brings a whole host of advantages, such as the

    Advances in vision technology are enhancing traffic surveillance and enforcement applications. Variable lighting conditions have long been a stumbling block for vision technology applications in the transport sector. With applications such as ANPR, the read-rate may vary between daylight and night and can be adversely affected by glare and low sun. Madrid, Spain-based Lector Vision had these considerations in mind when designing its Traffic Eye ANPR system, which combines off-the-shelf and custom hardware
