With the new RDF6100DN dome cameras, Dallmeier is expanding its successful Domera product family. The new model series is characterized in particular by its edge analytics capability, enhanced security features and an attractive price-performance ratio.
The cameras of the RDF6100DN series were specially developed for applications requiring a balance of functionality and cost-effectiveness. As a high-performance entry-level solution within the Domera product family, the cameras offer high resolution and light sensitivity.
In combination with modern encoder technology and sophisticated image processing, the cameras produce brilliant real-time images with high color fidelity and excellent contrast. Adaptive IR illumination ensures optimal scene illumination, even in darkness, without creating annoying reflections. Additional features include WDR support, switchable day/night presets, and EdgeStorage or EdgeRecording.
PTRZ function enables remote adjustment
Thanks to the PTRZ function, known at Dallmeier as RPoD (Remote Positioning Dome), the camera's alignment, as well as its zoom, focus, and aperture, can be conveniently configured via the network without any mechanical intervention on site.
This not only reduces the effort required for initial installation but also simplifies later adjustments when requirements change. Remotely adjusting settings reduces personnel and operating costs, shortens project durations, and frees specialists from time-consuming routine tasks, further contributing to the solution’s overall cost-effectiveness.
Intelligent analytics
The RDF6100 cameras feature AI analytics based on a neural network for object classification. They analyze the scene in real time, reliably detecting relevant objects, such as people or vehicles, independently of background movements (e.g., green spaces or water areas) or complex scenes.
Typical applications include intrusion detection, counting, parking management, and loitering monitoring. These intelligent functions help security teams respond more quickly, evaluate events more effectively, and streamline processes.
AI Made in Germany
Dallmeier takes a unique approach to the development of its AI technologies: The neural networks are trained on the company’s own test site under real-world conditions. This ensures that both the training data and the networks themselves remain under continuous control.
This approach guarantees that the AI features of the cameras operate reliably, transparently, and with practical relevance—laying the foundation for trustworthy technologies Made in Germany.
Secure Boot and FIPS compliance
With the RDF6100 series, Dallmeier reinforces its strong commitment to IT and cybersecurity. The cameras offer advanced security features, including support for Secure Boot: Only the signed Domera OS operating system can be started, effectively preventing manipulation by rootkits or malware.
In addition, the cameras are equipped with a Trusted Platform Module (TPM 2.0), meeting the requirements for FIPS 140 compliance. FIPS 140 is a standard issued by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and is mandatory for U.S. government agencies.
However, the strict requirements are increasingly gaining international relevance, especially for tenders involving sensitive areas such as government agencies, energy supply, and critical infrastructure. For customers, this translates into significantly enhanced data security and long-term investment protection.
High performance at an attractive price
Dallmeier’s new RDF6100DN dome cameras are a powerful solution for professional applications where cost-efficiency, image quality, AI-supported analytics, and maximum IT security are equally essential.
In 1984, Dieter Dallmeier founded what is now Dallmeier electronic – not in the proverbial garage, but in a garden shed in Regensburg, Germany. Today, the company, which can justifiably call itself a hidden champion for video information technology "Made in Germany", has several hundred employees worldwide, more than 250 of them at the company headquarters in the center of Regensburg alone.
