Analysis at the camera head relieves loading real-time video to backroom servers
Lumenera Corporation, a leading manufacturer and developer of high performance digital cameras and custom imaging solutions for security, industrial and scientific markets, today unveiled the Li045 - Lumenera's first intelligent family of cameras featuring onboard video analytics.
Lumenera's new intelligent cameras greatly enhance the ability to detect potential threats and events in real-time, providing the opportunity for security personnel to interrupt a crime or attack while in progress. ObjectVideo video analytics heighten the effectiveness of digital video surveillance by offering automated, real-time detection, tracking and analysis of objects of interest and identification of potential threats. Equipped with TI's DaVinciTM technology-based processors, the Li045 makes use of Pixim Incorporated's Orca Chipset - an ultra-wide dynamic range (120+dB) sensor which overcomes the issue of washed out images in challenging lighting environments, and offers excellent color rendition and image quality in any lighting conditions. Additionally, the Li045 is the first intelligent camera to market with selectable MJPEG and H.264 compression to address user requirements for higher quality images or lower bandwidth to stream video data.
Streaming full 720x480 resolution at up to 30 frames per second, these cameras deliver outstanding picture quality and performance across a standard 10/100BaseT network interface. A 1/3" sensor CCD sensor is capable of scanning 540+ lines of resolution using progressive scan technology -an ideal solution for capturing moving object across broad scenes. This camera is available in both colour or monochrome and is offered with optional environmental enclosures.
"Lumenera is excited to now be sampling the first of its intelligent camera series," stated Greg Bell, Vice President Business Development, Lumenera Corporation. "Pushing intelligence to the camera dramatically reduces overall system complexity and maintenance, improves system performance, and lowers implementation and lifecycle costs as no back servers are required."
