At IFSEC 2011, Vista is showing its range of High Definition (HD) CCTV products, including cameras, static and PTZ domes, DVRs and HDMI monitors.
Delivering high definition in 4:3 or 16:9 (widescreen) formats, Vista HD CCTV products can be used to deliver HD CCTV over IP (Cat5), or over coaxial cable networks, using HD-SDi technology from the broadcast industry.
Vista’s OnVif-compliant IP range, which includes the VK2-600PTZ high speed dome offering user control and D1 resolution, include features such as multistreaming, PoE, plus IE and Safari browser support – to provide customers with the company says a choice of products that are suitable for most surveillance applications.
With 720p roughly corresponding to megapixel imagery (and equating to Sky TV’s HD broadcast resolution), Vista’s 1080p product portfolio corresponds to 2 megapixel the firm says.
From a security and risk management perspective, the deployment of High Definition CCTV brings with it the firm says tangible benefits; in particular, it allows the delivery of more detailed images than has been previously possible. With this in mind, HD CCTV is it’s claimed suitable for high-risk applications, for example; in cash handling environments, where the identification of faces is a prerequisite; or within public space, retail, corporate headquarters, and high-security or sensitive installations.
"Vista’s portfolio of 1080p High Definition CCTV products provide a comprehensive platform for customers considering the deployment of IP or coaxial borne HD CCTV imaging," says Mark Prichard, Vista’s divisional director. "The capability of Vista’s HD CCTV range, specifically in terms of image quality and detail, can provide the potential to accurately identify suspects and achieve successful convictions. Fundamentally, the range can furnish users with situational awareness and facial recognition / identification of incidents across a much wider area than was previously possible."
