Pixim chipsets take top placements in test

Mountain View, California (USA)

In recent test results published by Protector magazine, a physical security publication in Germany, surveillance camera entries with Pixim chipsets claimed four of the top five rankings for best wide-dynamic range security cameras, out of a total of sixteen cameras tested.

Dallmeier, Honeywell, JVC, and Verint cameras, all enabled with Pixim's award-winning chipsets with Digital Pixel System (DPS) technology, were ranked at the top of the wide dynamic range scale in the competition. Each of the four cameras are differentiated with unique feature sets, but the overriding factor in determining excellence of wide dynamic range image quality is the Pixim chipset integrated into each product offering.

Pixim's DPS image sensor converts light to a digital signal at each pixel, enabling each pixel to have independent, optimized exposure times to deliver the highest image quality and color accuracy. DPS technology's image consistency and accuracy is known for overcoming typical impediments of existing analog CCD sensors, which have trouble producing positive subject identification caused by image blooming and smear, as well as limited colour fidelity.

Frost & Sullivan recently named Pixim, Inc. as the recipient of the 2006 Technology Innovation & Leadership of the Year Award in the field of video surveillance technology in recognition of its development of the Orca chipset.
