International. Tyco Security Products, part of Tyco introduces the new 2-megapixel Illustra PTZ Pro 30x camera, which features a powerful 30x optical zoom to deliver better forensic detail over greater distances.
The new Illustra PTZ Pro camera offers 30x optical zoom and 12x digital zoom, compared to the 20x zoom of the previous Illustra PTZ model. The PTZ camera's combination of advanced optical capability and high-quality HD video resolution allows users to identify important details, such as reading vehicle license plate numbers more than 300 meters away from the camera.
For better control accuracy and accuracy, the Illustra PTZ uses zoom adjusted program (ZAP) technology to automatically control scrolling and tilt speed in proportion to the amount of zoom used. Sensor-controlled direct-attach motors and innovative design of the set of exceptional gears and brakes give the camera industry-leading status in terms of precision return-to-position performance, at a speed of 512 degrees per second generating 835 pixels per degree.
Available in indoor and outdoor models, the Illustra PTZ Pro 2MP 30x also ensures enhanced low-light video performance and wide true dynamic range, ensuring premium surveillance even in the toughest conditions. The optimal video quality offered by this camera is maintained using advanced features including fog or rain effect removal, whiteout and noise reduction. The 30x PTZ also includes electronic image stabilization to reduce vibration effects caused by wind and other sources when using long-range optical magnification.
The Illustra Pro 30x PTZ introduces a new intelligent guard tour feature, using built-in intelligence to track, zoom in and record suspicious events or activity autonomously. This function unites motion detection, automatic tracking and preset sequences, which allow the PTZ to operate independently of a control room operator. While the camera performs pre-set tours in the absence of an operator, the intelligent guard feature allows the camera to record video evidence needed to identify key details that often make a difference in forensic investigations.
"We continually strive to push the boundaries in video quality, reliability and performance of our Illustra Pro cameras," said Mauricio Cañas, Tyco Security Products Video Product Marketing Manager for Latin America. "The enhanced imaging features, integrated intelligence and industry-leading control accuracy of the new Illustra Pro 30x PTZ deliver a premium PTZ camera, ready to meet customers' needs in mission-critical surveillance applications."
The Illustra PTZ camera is compatible with American Dynamics exacqVision and Video Edge video management systems (VMS) and recorders and can be easily configured in a security video system. In addition, a complete line of interior covers and outdoor mounting options is available for quick installation in any environment.
