The latest V9360 hemispheric cameras from network video management systems supplier 547 Vicon Industries provide high-resolution, continuous 180-degree or 360-degree coverage. An integral fisheye lens and four megapixel sensor captures a complete 360-degree view, which is delivered as two 180-degree panoramic images visually stacked on top of each other within a single video stream. All de-morphing is performed within the cameras prior to transmission, so a distortion-free image is delivered to the video management system (VMS) ready for live display and recording. The cameras transmit a choice of H.264, MPEG-4 SP and M-JPEG compressions with dual streaming.

Available in indoor and outdoor models with a range of mounting options, the devices are true day/night cameras that perform extremely well in a wide range of lighting conditions, thanks to advanced WDR and a mechanical IR cut filter. A microSD/microSDHC card slot allows for local storage. Power-over-Ethernet eliminates the need for power cables.

  • Temporary CCTV poses more challenges than permanent installations
    June 12, 2015
    Long-term roadworks pose particular problems for temporary surveillance installations. Converting the hard shoulder to a running lane, either full- or part-time, is the UK Highways Agency’s solution to ease motorway congestion. This is leading to a number of long-term projects where large stretches of the hard shoulder are closed off by temporary concrete barriers and during these roadwork programmes, temporary CCTV cameras are deployed to monitor and record vehicle traffic and workers.
