Axis Communications offers detection in complete darkness with its new AXIS Q1910 thermal camera

AXIS Q1910 Thermal Network Camera is a perfect complement to any network video system that needs to secure an area 24 hours a day, seven days a week.The camera uses thermal imaging, which allows users to detect people, objects and incidents in complete darkness and difficult conditions such as smoke, haze, dust and light fog.H.264 video compressionAXIS Q1910 Thermal Network Camera supports H.264 video compression, which reduces bandwidth usage and storage needs by up to 80% compared to Motion JPEG. The camera provides multiple, individually configurable video streams in H.264 and Motion JPEG. Each stream can have its own colour palette setting.Two-way audio supportAXIS Q1910 is the first thermal camera on the market with two-way audio support, which allows the user to communicate with visitors and intruders.Intelligent video capabilities Since thermal cameras are immune to problems with light conditions and normal shadows, they can achieve higher accuracy than conventional cameras in most intelligent video applications. AXIS Q1910 Thermal Network Camera offers motion detection, audio detection, and detection of tampering attempts. The camera also provides capacity for third-party analytics modules, including support for AXIS Camera Application Platform.        Power over Ethernet for easy installationInstallation is made easy and cost-effective with Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af), which eliminates the need for power cables.Global standardizationAXIS Q1910 Thermal Network Camera supports ONVIF for interoperability between network video products.

Superb video qualityMultiple H.264 streams Image setting adjustment Intelligent video capabilities Power over Ethernet Audio support Local storage High-performance, single-channel solutionAXIS Q7401 Video Encoder is a high-performance, single-channel solution that integrates an analogue camera into an IP-based video surveillance system.  With outstanding video processing capabilities, AXIS Q7401 delivers superb video quality and significant savings in bandwidth and storage.Reduced bandwidth and storage needsAXIS Q7401 offers the highly efficient H.264 video compression, which drastically reduces bandwidth and storage requirements without compromising image quality.  Motion JPEG is also supported for increased flexibility. Full frame rate in all resolutionsAXIS Q7401 can deliver multiple, individually configurable video streams simultaneously at full frame rate in all resolutions up to D1 (720x480 in NTSC, 720x576 in PAL).  This means that several video streams can be configured with different compression formats, resolutions and frame rates for different needs.Wide range of analogue PTZ cameras supportedAll Axis video encoders connect to analogue pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) cameras to allow for easy operation of these PTZ cameras across the IP network.  Axis' open policy ensures simple and fast integration with most analogue PTZ cameras on the market by including software drivers for more than 25 different analogue cameras, including products from American Dynamics, Bosch, Canon, Panasonic, Pelco, Philips, Samsung, Sensormatic and Sony.Easy installationSupport for Power over Ethernet (IEEE802.3af) enables the unit, as well as the analogue camera that is connected to it, to receive power through the same cable as for data transmission.  This makes for easy installation since no power outlet is needed.
