The camera provides up to 120 meters (394 feet) of classification level imaging and 33 meters (108 feet) of recognition level imaging in darkness. The IP66 and IK10 ratings ensure water/dust and vandal resistance making it ideal for demanding applications.

Designed for critical infrastructure applications, the rugged infrared imager consistently delivers high quality 1080p HD images at 30 ips in any lighting conditions.


NAI-90022-AAA System overview

The wide dynamic range sensor gives high quality 1080p HD images during the daytime and provides exceptional night-time performance with the integrated IR. The SR (Super Resolution) lens is designed to provide improved image resolution and sharpness, and better depth-of-field while avoiding the diffraction issues which can occur with megapixel sensors. Its advanced SR-iris design ensures the sharpest image possible, even in the corners.

The highly integrated all-in-one solution, with integrated illuminator and junction box, reduces installation time. This, together with remote lens adjustment and remote IR level control makes installation a lot easier and more convenient. The reliable, rugged construction makes the imager suitable for tough environments and demanding applications such as perimeter surveillance, critical infrastructure surveillance and public area surveillance.

The camera contains the Bosch Intelligent Video Analysis (IVA) application making it a very powerful tool in unmanned perimeter surveillance applications. IVA also contributes to the content-based scene analysis which optimizes image processing and reduces bandwidth and storage requirements.


NAI-90022-AAA Functions

Content Based Imaging Technology

Content Based Imaging Technology (CBIT) is used to radically improve image quality in all lighting conditions and to identify areas for enhanced processing. The camera examines the scene using Intelligent Video Analysis (IVA) and provides feedback to re-tune the image processing. This provides better detail in the areas that matter and better all-round performance. With IVA, the Intelligent Auto Exposure technology, for example, allows you to view moving objects in bright and dark areas of a scene.

High performance IR illumination

The integrated high-power infrared illuminator operates at a wavelength of 850 nm which provides semi-covert illumination with an excellent range. IR intensity is remotely adjustable. The illuminator can be tilted, and the width of the IR beam is adjusted by placing the 3D diffuser in the IR illumination path. This ability to adjust the IR beam pattern in the field gives a broad coverage and greatly reduces setup time and effort. Variable field illumination also provides even illumination not only across the horizontal field of view but also from foreground to background.

IR on/off and camera day/night switching is controlled by the image brightness level and the ambient visible light sensor. The switch point is also remotely adjustable.

To ensure this performance never fades over time, the IR imager features constant light technology, using closed-loop feedback to control infrared performance throughout the life of the unit.

Excellent DCRI performance

The Detection, Classification, Recognition, Identification (DCRI) framework is a set of definitions for image quality applicable to optical imaging equipment under different lighting and environmental conditions day and night. The DINION IP imager 9000 HD has excellent range performance when evaluated according to these standards as shown in the following table:

 

DCRI values are narrow IR beam configuration at maximum focal length.

 

Installer friendly

The IP66-rated waterproof and dustproof junction box can be preinstalled and the camera can be hung and connected in seconds, reducing time and energy on the ladder. If PoE+ power is used, a single cable is all that is needed to stream images and to carry power and control signals.

The AVF (Automatic Varifocal) feature means that the zoom can be changed without opening the camera. The automatic motorized zoom/focus adjustment with 1:1 pixel mapping ensures the camera is always accurately focused. The automatic zoom/focus lens wizard makes it easy for an installer to accurately zoom and focus the camera for both day and night operation. The wizard can be activated remotely from the PC or from the on-board camera push button making it easy to choose the workflow that suits best.

Hybrid mode

An analogy video output enables the camera to operate in hybrid mode. This mode provides simultaneous high resolution HD video streaming and an analogy video output via a BNC connector. The hybrid functionality offers an easy migration path from legacy CCTV to a modern IP-based system.

All-weather, vandal-resistant design

The integrated cast-aluminium housing can withstand the equivalent of 20 joule of impact force (IK10), equivalent to a 5 kg (12 lbs) steel ball dropped from 40cm (IK10 not for lens and IR windows), and is protected against water, dust and corrosion to IP66 and NEMA 4X standards.

This makes it ideal for outdoor use in demanding environments. Using the proprietary pan/tilt mechanism, installers can select the exact field of view. Mounting options are numerous, including pole, wall and corner mounting.

Video analytics

With built-in video content analysis, the camera reinforces the Intelligence-at-the-Edge concept where edge devices become increasingly intelligent. The latest generation of the Bosch Intelligent Video Analysis (IVA) software is the guard-assistant system of choice when reliable indoor or outdoor video analytics is needed. The state-of-the-art system reliably detects, tracks, and analyzes moving objects while suppressing unwanted alarms from spurious sources in the image.

The face detection feature detects faces in the scene and forwards a high quality JPEG image of the best shot of each face when the face disappears from the scene.

Retrospective forensic search capabilities are available remotely from the web browser or the

Bosch Video Client.

Intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction reduces bandwidth and storage requirements

The camera uses Intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction which actively analyzes the contents of a scene and reduces noise artefacts accordingly.

The low-noise image and the efficient H.264 compression technology provide clear images while reducing bandwidth and storage by up to 50% compared to other H.264 cameras. This results in reduced-bandwidth streams that still retain a high image quality and smooth motion. The camera provides the most usable image possible by cleverly optimizing the detail-to-bandwidth ratio.

Area-based encoding

Area-based encoding is another feature which reduces bandwidth. Compression parameters for up to eight user-definable regions can be set. This allows uninteresting regions to be highly compressed, leaving more bandwidth for important parts of the scene. The average typical optimized bandwidth in kbits/s for various image rates is shown in the table:

 

Multiple streams

The innovative multi-streaming feature delivers various H.264 streams together with an M‑JPEG stream. These streams facilitate bandwidth-efficient viewing and recording as well as integration with third-party video management systems.

Regions of interest and E-PTZ

Regions of Interest (ROI) can be user defined. The remote E-PTZ (Electronic Pan, Tilt and Zoom) controls allow you to select specific areas of the parent image. These regions produce separate streams for remote viewing and recording. These streams, together with the main stream, allow the operator to separately monitor the most interesting part of a scene while still retaining situational awareness.

With IVA, Intelligent Tracking can follow objects within the defined regions of interest. Intelligent Tracking can autonomously detect and track moving objects or the user can click on an object which the tracker will then follow.

Tamper and motion detection

A wide range of configuration options is available for alarms signalling camera tampering. A built-in algorithm for detecting movement in the video can also be used for alarm signalling.

A hardware tamper switch detects the opening of the junction box.

Storage management

Recording management can be controlled by the Bosch Video Recording Manager (VRM) or the camera can use iSCSI targets directly without any recording software.

Edge recording

The MicroSD card slot supports up to 2 TB of storage capacity. A microSD card can be used for local alarm recording. Pre-alarm recording in RAM reduces recording bandwidth on the network, or — if microSD card recording is used — extends the effective life of the storage medium.

Cloud-based services

The camera supports time-based or alarm-based JPEG posting to four different accounts. These accounts can address FTP servers or cloud-based storage facilities (for example, Dropbox). Video clips or JPEG images can also be exported to these accounts. Alarms can be set up to trigger an e-mail or SMS notification so you are always aware of abnormal events.

Access security

Password protection with three levels and 802.1x authentication is supported. To secure Web browser access, use HTTPS with a SSL certificate stored in the camera. The video and audio communication channels can be independently AES encrypted with 128-bit keys by installing the optional encryption site license.

Complete viewing software

There are many ways to access the camera’s features: using a web browser, with the Bosch Video Management System, with the free-of-charge Bosch Video Client, with the video security mobile app, or via third-party software.

Video security App

The Bosch video security mobile App has been developed to enable Anywhere access to HD surveillance images allowing you to view live images from any location. The App is designed to give you complete control of all your cameras, from panning and tilting to zoom and focus functions. It’s like taking your control room with you.

This App, together with the separately available Bosch transcoder, will allow you to fully utilize our dynamic transcoding features so you can play back images even over low-bandwidth connections.

System integration

The camera conforms to the ONVIF Profile S specification. This guarantees interoperability between network video products regardless of manufacturer. Third-party integrators can easily access the internal feature set of the camera for integration into large projects.
