Speed Dome for Night Vision

Extreme CCTV, suppliers of Active Infra-Red Night Vision surveillance equipment, has shown the PX100 at Ifsec 2006, the only pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) speed dome designed specifically for absolute night vision under Infra-Red. While most conventional speed domes are designed primarily for PTZ functionality, the PX100 was developed for outstanding night vision when used with Infra-Red. In test trials the PX100 delivered 180 m (~600ft) of high resolution night vision surveillance when used with dual IR illuminators. Performance at 180m (~600ft) was achieved at a full 30 frames per second, eliminating the jerky, blurred images usually produced by conventional speed domes using frame integration. Featuring mechanical IR-cut filter technology, the PX100 has a 23x LXR zoom module for vivid daytime images and superior low light performance. Optical performance is outstanding, resulting in images with low smear, low streak and excellent anti-blooming characteristics. PX100 provides comprehensive speed dome functionality, including presets, touring, on-screen display, variable speed control, privacy zones and built-in clock, almost all camera functions can be ac
