Product Profile

Arecont Vision has expanded their full line of H.264 cameras with the addition of the MegaDome™ series, integrating the camera, lens and housing into an all-in-one solution. Available in color or day/night versions and with 1.3M to 5 megapixel sensors, the dome cameras incorporate Arecont Vision's fully compliant implementation of H.264 (MPEG 4, Part 10) compression that uses up to 10 times on average less bandwidth and storage compared to megapixel counterparts using MJPEG compression.

Arecont Vision is the leading manufacturer of high-performance megapixel IP cameras (8MP, 5MP, 3MP, 2MP and 1.3MP) and associated software. The products are made in the USA and feature patented low-cost massively parallel image processing architectures MegaVideo® and SurroundVideo® that represent a drastic departure from traditional analogue and network camera designs.

Arecont Vision's cameras feature a proprietary implementation of a fully compliant H.264 codec, which provides full resolution megapixel video at full frame rates for the entire range of Arecont cameras from 1.3 to 8 megapixels. Additionally, bandwidth and storage efficiencies of up to 10X on average are achieved over MJPEG implementations. Arecont Vision systems deliver unparalleled clarity at an unbeatable price providing vastly superior alternative to analogue CCTV.

ViDiCore KG is the authorised exclusive representative for Arecont Vision, Pivot 3, Mirasys and Veracity in Europe.
