This is the third time Bosch has won this award, affirming the high level of innovation and quality embodied in the company's products. In 2008, the company's Hemi Directional Loudspeakers won Best Alarm & Detection Product Award and its IVA (intelligent Video Analysis) software version 3.5 received a Highly Commended Award.

The award is presented annually by the global security magazine Detektor International in recognition of products that meet the criteria of outstanding innovation and outstanding contribution to developments in the security industry. According to the panel of judges, the IP camera 200 Series proves Bosch's ability to develop and produce high-quality out-of-the-box network surveillance solutions that appeal to a mass-market.

The IP camera 200 Series is the first of a new series of compact cameras introduced earlier this year by Bosch that operate as completely self-contained surveillance systems. Ready to use straight from the box, the series is a cost-effective yet professional standard CCTV solution that enables small businesses and enterprises to protect and monitor their property.
