Fukuoka, JAPAN (December 4th, 2020) – Panasonic i-PRO Sensing Solutions, formerly Panasonic Security Group, is announcing a launch of industry's first[1] 360-degree fisheye network camera with a transparent heater for use in winter and cold regions[2].
In cold regions, rain or snow in winter may freeze water drops on the camera surface, causing problems with video surveillance. In particular, 360-degree fisheye network cameras use a fixed lens to monitor a wide angle of view, so even if the freezing range is small, the effect on the shooting range is quite serious.
The newly launching 360-degree fisheye network camera is equipped with a transparent heater, which prevents ice coating by heating the dome cover uniformly, enabling stable monitoring even in snowy areas. It can be used not only for monitoring outdoor in winter and cold regions, but also for monitoring in refrigerated warehouses.
In addition, this new network camera supports 4K resolution. There are major 2 benefits of 4K resolution: when compared to full HD or HD resolution, a larger area can be captured if the image is of the same detail (resolution). Also, when the shooting range (angle of view) is the same, higher definition shooting can be performed.
We i-PRO will continue our search for better products and continue to contribute to the realization of a society in which people can enjoy themselves with smiles through security and safety initiatives.
