David Westwood, External Sales Manager for Pro-Vision told us, "The Idis five megapixel (MP) Super Fisheye camera has received ‘recommended’ status in independent testing by Benchmark Magazine - the UK-based publication dedicated to ‘driving innovation in the security industry’.”

“Idis’ Super Fisheye provides total 360° panoramic surveillance in HD to give operators complete situational awareness without any blind spots. The camera also increases security by eliminating the delays associated with manually panning, tilting and zooming. Featuring dual camera and client-side dewarping (including via mobile devices) operators are able to split the 360° view into smaller, more focused images for areas such as entrance points or other places that require close surveillance – such as cash registers - whilst simultaneously maintaining a panoramic view.”

David added, “As a result businesses require fewer cameras to cover any given environment and the lack of moving parts within the camera means less maintenance. This makes the Idis Fisheye cost-effective to both install (versus the multiple cameras it replaces) as well as for reliability.”

Benchmark lists the DC-YI513W as a ‘recommended’ product noting the robust features and functionality of the camera. The magazine awards a ‘recommended’ status to products that have “no obvious flaws or performance issues, do not lack credibility and have been designed for simple installation and operation.”
