Virtual Reality Camera

GeoVision showed off the VR 360, the world’s first Virtual Reality camera that can provide a 720° view. President David Huang said it’s the only camera with two Fisheye lenses to provide a floor to ceiling, 720° view with no blind spots.

It’s ideal for security environments such as airports, train stations, city streets, harbors and highways. The camera uses advanced computer vision technology to simulate a three-dimensional, highly realistic, and practical 3D space. It’s water-proof, vandal-proof and dust resistant, making it ideal for outdoors. It also boasts IR Night Mode for clear images even in dark environments.

Huang also demonstrated new facial recognition IP dome camera with cutting-edge AI. It can recognize human faces in 1.5 seconds, making possible identification of authorized versus un-authorized personnel, creation of blacklists for restricted personnel, and VIP lists to improve relationship management.
