Airlive introduces outdoor IP camera with IR

Taipei, Taiwan

Airlive has launched a new outdoor IP camera, BU-720, with HD resolution and IR LEDs.
Airlive's BU-720 is the latest innovation in the field of IP cameras for outdoor use, combining a high technical level, IP66 weatherproofing, IR LED illumination and a favourable cost, allowing it to be used in smaller systems and in applications where cost may have previously been an obstacle for the use of devices of this level.

The robust aluminum enclosure of the Airlive BU-720 camera complies with IP66 weatherproofing standards for outdoor spaces and gives it not only a pleasing modern design, but also protection against harsh weather conditions, such as rain, moisture and dust, and also effectively protecting it against vandalism and mechanical damage. One of the new enhancements of this design is also the ability to hide the required wiring within the mounting arm. The camera housing also includes infrared LED night-time illumination with up to 25 metres of effective distance.

The Airlive BU-720 camera is equipped with a low-lux CMOS sensor with a maximum resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels at 30 frames per second, so the resulting image is sharp and detailed even in difficult conditions, and it also contains four times the amount of image data compared with many standard CCTV cameras with VGA resolution. The automatically adjustable IR filter allows precise settings for different lighting conditions.

Other features of the Airlive BU-720 include support for advanced H.264 compression, which significantly reduces the use of bandwidth in the network and the required space for data storage. Wide dynamic range technology ensures automatic balance of light and dark areas within the picture, so even with strong baclighting the reference object still remains easily recognisable and detailed. Clear motion ttechnology in turn prevents blurring of fast moving objects, which works great for example when monitoring passing vehicles. The camera is also equipped with a slot for a microSD memory card, which serves as a local storage location and prevents data loss. Moreover, the BU-720 naturally supports active PoE (802.3af) to minimize mounting effort and cost.

The BU-720 is supplied with standard utility software Campro Express 64, which allows live monitoring and video recording for up to 64 Airlive cameras included in the system simultaneously. For especially demanding applications the Campro Professional surveillance software is available as developed by Airlive, which includes sophisticated methods of image analysis, thus allowing greater automation of monitoring and saving human resources.

Thanks to its durability in outdoor environments, and its modern and functional design and favorable price the Airlive BU-720 is genuinely universally applicable for almost any modern system requirements.
