Tyco Security Products introduces the brand new Illustra Pro 2 megapixel mini-dome cameras, featuring new UltraVision low light technology to capture prime quality color video within the most extreme low light conditions.

The new Illustra UltraVision technology allows the camera to effectively maintain color video well below 1 lux. This drastically improves the facility to spot people and objects of interest in environments near total darkness. Illustra UltraVision is perfect for applications akin to parking lots, alleyways, warehouses and other lowlight settings where maintaining color and video quality is important to the surveillance operation. In low light mode, UltraVision provides the colour detail needed for users to more quickly find clear video evidence for investigations. 

Beyond the UltraVision low light performance, the Illustra Pro 2MP mini-domes also feature advanced on-board analytics, including motion detection, face detection, blur detection and tampering. To attenuate bandwidth use, storage requirements and to optimize performance and video quality, users can program as much as five individual regions of interest to maximise the detail clarity in those specific areas identified as most significant.  

Available in vandal-resistant IK-10 indoor and outdoor models, the Illustra Pro 2MP mini-dome cameras operate within the most extreme temperatures, as little as -30 degrees Celsius when powered using standard PoE network power. Outdoor models are IP66-rated to offer durability and protect against water and mud damage.

Other features include:

• Automatically increases video quality around people’s faces using face detection region of interest intelligence
• True wide dynamic range (100db) to optimize video in extreme bright and dark areas
• Blur detection intelligence to alert users when camera focus or cleaning is important so cameras will also be refocused immediately, reducing downtime and upkeep calls
• Motorized 9-22 mm lens option available for installations with longer range field of view needs 

“In many security scenarios today, it’s critically important in an effort to identify people and objects of interest in extreme low light situations,” said Steve Carney, senior director of product marketing, video and integration platforms, Tyco Security Products. “With the introduction of Illustra Ultravision, Tyco Security Products is in a position to provide exceptional low light color video quality 24/7 for our customers.”

Compatible with American Dynamics VideoEdge and exacqVision video management system (VMS) software and recorders, the Illustra Pro mini-dome cameras may also be easily configured right into a video security system saving installation money and time. The camera is exacqVision Edge ready, so exacqVision video management system (VMS) software may also be installed directly at the camera for an entire high definition IP video solution. Also, an entire line of indoor plenum caps and mounting clips can be found for recessed flush installation. Various outdoor mounting options can be found in addition for speedy installation in any setting.
