IP Camera's
Why
Use High-Resolution Systems?
The higher the resolution, the more details are in an image.
Using traditional (analog) technology, a live image has no
more than 0.4 megapixels and a recorded image only has 0.1
megapixels (CIF). On the contrary, a MOBOTIX camera with 3.1
megapixels records around 30 times more detail. As a result,
larger image areas with up to 360° panorama are possible,
thus reducing the number of cameras and therefore the costs.
For example, four lanes of a gas station can be recorded using
one MOBOTIX camera instead of four conventional cameras.
Disadvantages
Of The Old Centralized Solution
Usually cameras only supply the images while the processing
and recording is done later on a central PC using video management
software. This traditional centralized structure is unsuitable
for high-resolution video systems, since it requires not only
high network bandwidth, but also needs enormous PC processing
power to support several cameras. An HDTV MPEG4 film already
puts considerable strain on a PC, so how can it be expected
to process dozens of high-resolution live cameras? Traditional
centralized systems are therefore neither cost-efficient nor
suitable due to the large number of PCs required for high-resolution
systems.
The Decentralized MOBOTIX Concept
Unlike other systems, the decentralized MOBOTIX concept incorporates
a high-speed computer and, if necessary, a digital memory
(SD card) for long-term recording in every camera. The PC
is now used only for viewing, not for analysis or recording.
As a result, MOBOTIX cameras can record events even without
a running PC and digitally record videos with sound for archiving
purposes.
The
Benefits
MOBOTIX video solutions therefore require significantly:
- fewer
cameras due to the more accurate detail of wide-angle images
with megapixel technology,
- fewer
PCs/DVRs, because around 40 cameras can store high-resolution
video with sound efficiently on a single PC, or no PC at
all when recording on the camera's digital storage (USB,
SD card),
- lower
network bandwidth, because everything is processed in the
camera itself and the high-resolution images therefore do
not have to be constantly transferred for analysis.
Robust
And Low-Maintenance
MOBOTIX cameras do not require any lens or positioning motors.
Without any moving parts, they are so robust that maintenance
is reduced to a minimum. The unique temperature range from
-30° to +60°C (-22° to +140°F) is achieved
without heating or fan at only 3 watts power consumption.
Since no PC hard disk is required for recording, there are
no parts that wear out in the entire video system.
Software
Included - For Life
There are no software or licensing costs with MOBOTIX, because
the software is always supplied within the camera - for an
unlimited number of cameras and users. The software package
supplied with the camera also includes a professional control
center software used at soccer stadiums, for example. Updates
are supplied free of charge on the website.
