Vandal Resistant Dome Camera

Bosch has launched the Flexidome HD VR. The VR suffix stands for vandal resistant, as this new camera is characterized by robust, compact dome-housing allowing for different imaging platforms in one unified design. The camera offers a choice of imaging modules: 720p60 for superior, lowlight performance, 1,080p for full HD resolution, and 1,080p HDR for even the most challenging wide dynamic range scenes.

All three modules make use of the same design, providing a unique freedom of choice and a unified esthetic for the latest in video security installations. In addition, the camera features Content Based Imaging Technology (CBIT), providing intelligent dynamic image optimization. The CBIT-enabled cameras include two special modes: Intelligent Auto Exposure (iAE), which results in optimal details for objects of interest, plus intelligent dynamic noise reduction (iDNR) that lowers bandwidth requirements by up to 30 percent compared to other cameras. For ease of use, the system is equipped with an automatic varifocal (AVF) lens. This simplifies and halves the installation time since several cameras can be focused and zoomed remotely from the comfort of the control room.
