American Dynamics cameras integrate with Genetec
Heathrow, London (UK) and Montreal Canada
“Our integration with the Genetec solution demonstrates Tyco Security Products’ commitment to incorporating third party technologies so that customers have access to the most appropriate solutions for their particular application,” said Cheryl Shea, product manager, Tyco Security Products. “With this integration, current Genetec Omnicast customers can now leverage Illustra’s quality resolution and low cost of ownership for both large and small camera projects by easily adding Illustra cameras for new or expanded surveillance deployments.”
Illustra cameras feature a unique facial detection capability - the ability to automatically detect faces in a live scene and improve the image quality around the face, whilst conserving bandwidth in the rest of the scene. Other user-friendly features include auto-focus, which allows users to remotely control the image and automatically focus on the area required with a click of a mouse, saving security integrators time and money on every job. In addition, the outdoor camera has a Theia wide-angle lens option that provides ultra clear views and avoids “barrel-distortion”, especially at the farther angles of an image where events can easily take place.
