The indoor/outdoor camera addresses diverse security functions including remote or unmanned wide-area surveillance and deterrence beyond property borders. Featuring self-driven, vision-guided, PTZ-based autonomous tracking to ensure a continuous image of the target, the xptz100dn also enables step-and-stare detection over presets - detecting and looking at one predefined area before jumping to another. As a result, the xptz100dn delivers 24/7 monitoring of perimeters, compounds, industrial facilities, construction sites, and other large areas typically secured by patrols, sensors or other expensive solutions.

The xptz100dn is suitable for a wide range of users facing the most demanding conditions and challenges. Based on intelligent, video-edge-device architecture, the camera does not require hardware modification or centralized, software-based detection processing like alternative software solutions, and reduces cabling and installation needs. Up and running just minutes after easy installation, the xptz100dn offers immediate selected detection, is network-independent, and utilizes bandwidth - for sending video images to the operator - only upon alert. Simply configurable via a web browser, the user-friendly camera is also ideal for securing remote and unattended locations, since all maintenance and adjustments can be conducted off-site.

Embedded with analytics time-tested by the Israel defense forces under harsh environmental and security conditions, the camera provides a high probability of detection (PoD) with a low false alarm rate. With its automated 18x/26x optical zoom, the camera generates a magnified image that can be used for verification and identification. The xptz100dn also maintains automated camera hand-off, whereby a suspect is picked up on one camera and then passed over to another after leaving the original camera's range.

"Designed for simplicity, the xptz100dn eliminates the traditionally high expenses of security automation and tracking, making it a cost-effective solution for today's most demanding safety challenges," says Roni Kass, CEO of ioimage. "The release of this highly innovative IP PTZ camera is another step in ioimage's continued efforts to provide intelligent video appliances that meet the diverse security needs of public and private organizations throughout the world."
