6.2-megapixel dual dome surveillance camera in a weatherproof and shock-resistant housing

Mobotix has released it’s D14 Dualdome Camera, a weatherproof and shock-resistant 6.2-megapixel surveillance camera that is the successor to the Mobotix D12 camera. With two separately adjustable camera modules, each with 3.1 megapixels, the camera offers a variety of ways to examine a scene because the two modules can be combined to create one image. It also provides a digital PTZ and has no mechanical moving parts.

Equipped with a 90° wide angle and tele lenses, the camera can monitor an entire scene and, at the same time, the tele lens can record portrait photos in front of a particular area, such as an entrance. With one of the cameras installed on the wall, the two 90° lenses even allow 180° recording when monitoring an entire parking lot, for example. With the addition of a digital sensor switching function, the camera can also be used as a day/night camera since it can be equipped with one color and one black/white module ensuring the most brilliant color during the day and high sensitivity at night.

The camera includes motion detection that can trigger recording and alarm notifications can be sent via email or VoIP. It is also compatible with the SIP audio protocol. The integrated DVR includes up to 64 GB memory and records for weeks without a PC. If needed, the memory can be extended to terabytes with an external NAS drive.
