Dahua Technology, the globally renowned video-centric company and provider of smart IoT solutions, has announced their new Night Color 2.0 Fusion Camera.
Dahua’s Night Color 2.0 Fusion Camera is the only 4 MP camera on the market that has dual-lens technology, providing full-colour images in poorly lit scenes.
Night Color 2.0 Fusion Camera
The Night Color 2.0 Fusion Camera (N45DUD2) has two 4 MP sensors. “One sensor extracts detail from the visible spectrum and the second extracts brightness from the infrared spectrum,” explains Jennifer Hackenburg, the Product Marketing Director at Dahua Technology USA.
Jennifer Hackenburg adds, “Then, these two images are completely fused, using frame-by-frame mapping at the pixel level. The result is a brightness close to visible-light brightness. In fact, the final image is 36% brighter than that of a standard 4 MP camera.”
Night Color Fusion Technology
Night Color Fusion Technology is ideal for low-light applications, where covert security and full-colour images are needed
Night Color Fusion Technology is ideal for low-light applications, where both covert security and full-colour images are needed. For interiors, this can include theaters and bars – environments that need dim lighting for technical reasons or ambiance.
For exteriors, this can mean areas without high ambient light at night and areas, where white light illuminators are undesirable. The Night Color 2.0 Fusion Camera offers the benefit of less insect attraction as well.
Featuring Dahua’s Analytics+ algorithms
Other features of the Night Color 2.0 Fusion camera are Ultra Wide Dynamic Range, triple-stream encoding, an IP67 rating, and ePoE. The camera has Analytics+ functions at the edge, performing complex real-time perimeter protection security, Smart Motion Detection, etc. Dahua’s Analytics+ algorithms significantly improve accuracy and reliability.
The new Night Color 2.0 Fusion Camera is designed to improve quality for security operators, from analytics that help them make better-informed decisions to advanced imaging and sensor technology. The suitable applications for this new camera include parks, restaurants, bars and perimeters.
