Samsung has introduced the SCV-2081R, a high performance, compact, vandal-resistant dome camera which has built-in IR LEDs enabling it to capture 600 TV lines resolution images at night, without the user incurring the cost of providing supplementary lighting.
Suitable the makers say for a range of internal and external applications such as offices, retail stores, schools and hospitals, the IP66 rated SCV-2081R will work it’s claimed in more demanding places that are prone to severe or varying weather, besides tampering or physical attack.
The dome’s built-in IR LEDs equips it to capture images of objects even when the scene is in total darkness. The intensity of the IR LEDs is automatically adjusted according to the distance to the subject it is viewing in order to eliminate bright highlights and to ensure a balanced foreground and background image.
The product has a built-in 3.6X varifocal lens (2.8 ~10mm) and incorporates Samsung Techwin’s W-V DSP chipset to deliver features including eight motion detection zones, twelve privacy masking zones, third generation Samsung Super Noise Reduction (SSNRIII) technology and coaxial control compatibility allowing the 15 language on-screen display menu to be accessed from the comfort of the control room via a compatible DVR, such as selected Samsung SRD series DVRs, without the need to install more cabling.
Other features include Highlight Compensation (HLC) technology, which identifies and neutralises excessively bright areas in an image, such as car headlights, enabling the operator to view detail that would normally be completely washed out due to the strong light source. The dome also has Samsung Super Dynamic Range (SSDR), a progression of backlight compensation which automatically enhances detail in dark areas across the entire scene to reveal objects hidden in shadow.
The dome is available from all Samsung distributors and is offered with full support services from Samsung Techwin Europe Ltd., including free system design, free technical support and a full three-year warranty. For further information – visit:
