Hikvision’s expansive lineup of PanoVu panoramic cameras allows facilities to monitor vast coverage areas without having to invest in purchasing and installing dozens of surveillance cameras. The expansive PanoVu series features up to 32 megapixels of resolution and are available in a variety of 180° or 360° configurations and feature sets.

Our PanoVu panoramic cameras provide wide area coverage with outstanding value by enabling one camera to replace up to four standard cameras. In addition to reducing the cost of purchasing multiple cameras, these competitively priced panoramic cameras also greatly reduce installation costs,” said John Xiao, Vice President Marketing, Hikvision USA.

Video compression technology

Hikvision PanoVu cameras are available with 180° or 360° fields of view in 8 MP, 20 MP, or 32 MP resolution and feature supplemental IR and panoramic lighting to capture clear images in extremely dark environments.
