The MegaDome® 2 IP megapixel (MP) camera family is loaded with features and options. With SNAPstream™ technology for low bandwidth, groundbreaking STELLAR™ low light technology, 4K, Wide Dynamic Range options, True Day/Night, IR, image down scaling, and CorridorView™ to name a few of the many standout features included, MegaDome 2 has an adaptation for almost any environment or scenario.
Arecont Vision® megapixel technology delivers superior image quality and reduces overall system costs by covering larger areas with fewer cameras. An area typically requiring multiple fixed cameras can be replaced with a single MegaDome series camera. A 10 megapixel MegaDome 2 is roughly 30 times the resolution of a VGA analog camera. While using efficient H.264 video compression to manage bandwidth and keep storage requirements low, the cameras deliver exceptional detailed video without sacrificing image quality.
SNAPstream™ technology, or Smart Noise Adaption and Processing, reduces bandwidth without sacrificing image quality. This breakthrough technology adapts to changes in the scene on the fly, and only pushes through necessary information, meaning that MegaDome 2 cameras do not use excessive bandwidth.
MegaDome 2 cameras can be installed without locally adjusting the focus or zoom of the lens. Remote focus and zoom can be controlled through the camera webpage, or through industry leading video management system (VMS) platforms.
MegaDome 2 10MP models can run at either 10MP or 1080p thanks to its dual mode functionality. The latter mode benefits from the ability to run at a smooth 30 frames per second.
1.2MP MegaDome 2 cameras with STELLAR (Spatio Temporal Low Light Architecture) technology offers detailed color imaging in near complete darkness. This advanced feature has best-in-class light sensitivity that captures details in extreme low-light at an incredibly high frame rate. STELLAR performs algorithms to collect relevant information from multiple video frames to reduce both noise and motion blur as new video is recorded, resulting in reduced storage requirements and excellent image quality.
In addition to the standard wide angle lens, MegaDome 2 cameras have the option of telephoto lens models to cope with farther mounting distances from areas where high detail is required, such as a vehicle entrance from across a large retail store parking lot.
MegaDome 2 cameras have the option of a powerful IR illuminator with 24 850nm LEDs. When active in the dark, there is almost no visible glow from Arecont Vision IR LEDs. Wide angle and telephoto lens models have a 50ft (15m) and 120ft (36m) LED range respectively.
For applications with strong backlighting or reflections from wet or shiny flooring, wide dynamic range technology is available on select 1080p and 3MP MegaDome 2 cameras. Arecont Vision WDR cameras deliver a dynamic range of up to 100db at full resolution and maximum frame rates producing clear images in challenging lighting conditions by maximizing the amount of detail in both bright and dark areas of a scene.
