ISC East booth No. 612 — Canon U.S.A. Inc., Melville, N.Y., a provider of digital imaging solutions, added four new Full HD resolution network cameras to its product lineup — the VB-S30D PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) Micro Dome Full HD Network Camera, VB-S31D PT (pan-tilt) Micro Dome Full HD Network Camera, VB-S800D Fixed Micro Dome Full HD Network Camera and VB-S900F Micro Box Full HD Network Camera. The new ultra-compact S-series network cameras have been designed for indoor environments that require sensitive monitoring of specific areas or items, such as in the retail, education, commercial and hospitality sectors. PoE (Power over Ethernet) and ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum) Profile-S Conformance allow system integrators easy installation of all four new lightweight full HD cameras as part of a new or existing security network.
With high-sensitivity CMOS sensors, large-apertures, wide-angle lenses and dual DIGIC processors, the new S-series cameras offer a combination of Full HD resolution, detailed image quality, wide-angle of view and excellent low-light performance. The new S-series of network cameras features two processors — DIGIC DV III and DIGIC NET II — enabling all capturing, processing, encoding and transmitting of outstanding images with life-like colors and tonal accuracy, simultaneously in both H.264 and M-JPEG at 1920 x 1080 up to 30 frames per second. The S-series of network cameras offer low-light performance, even in difficult lighting conditions, with Day/Night operation.
The processing architecture of the DIGIC DV III and DIGIC NET II processors, featured in the new S-series cameras, was engineered to deliver multiple H.264 and/or M-JPEG streams in a selection of resolutions including Full HD (1920x1080). In addition to multi-streaming, the cameras can also do simultaneous streaming. The full range supports edge recording on microSD cards (up to 64GB) and features a new utility that can playback directly from the microSD card without the need to download content to a PC first.
Compatible with major third-party solutions and ONVIF v2.2 and Profile S compliant, the new S-series cameras are expected to start shipping at the end of 2013.
