Dinion NBN-71027-BA Description
The DINION IP dynamic 7000 HD camera is a 1080p30 progressive scan CMOS
camera that uses Bosch designed digital imaging technology to achieve a very
high dynamic range.
The camera uses an internal feedback system based on the intelligent analysis of
the scene, to re-tune the video processing. This provides better detail in the
areas that matter and better all-round performance, day or night. Features such
as multicasting, internet streaming and iSCSI recording are fully supported.
System overview
High Dynamic Range
The High Dynamic Range (HDR) of the camera means that you can view details in
the bright and the dark areas of a scene at the same time. HDR is based on a
dual exposure process that captures more details in highlights and shadows even
under challenging lighting conditions. The result is that you can distinguish
objects and features easily.
Hybrid operation
A surge-protected analogue video output allows full hybrid operation. This means
that high resolution IP video streaming and an analogue video output via an SMB
connector are available simultaneously. The hybrid functionality offers an easy
migration path from legacy CCTV to a modern IP-based system.
Functions
Content-Based Imaging Technology
Content-Based Imaging Technology (C-BIT) 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 analytics and
provides feedback to retune the image processing. This provides better detail in
the areas that matter and better all-round performance. With IVA, the
intelligent Automatic Exposure (iAE) technology, for example, allows you to view
moving objects in bright and dark areas of a scene.
iDNR reduces bandwidth and storage requirements
The camera uses intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction (iDNR) 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 30% 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:
IPS | 1080p | 720p | 480p |
30 | 1600 | 1200 | 600 |
15 | 1274 | 955 | 478 |
12 | 1169 | 877 | 438 |
5 | 757 | 568 | 284 |
2 | 326 | 245 | 122 |
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.
An upright mode can be selected for the second stream. In this mode an image of
400 x 720 (9:16 aspect ratio) is cropped from the full sensor image. When the
scene to be monitored is suitable to this mode, the bandwidth and storage
requirements are reduced.
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, the Intelligent tracker can follow objects within the defined regions
of interest. The Intelligent tracker can autonomously detect and track moving
objects or the user can click on an object which the Intelligent tracker will
then follow.
Simple set-up
The camera has a very intuitive user interface that allows fast and easy
configuration. Six configurable user modes are provided with the best settings
for a variety of applications:
- Indoor – general day-to-night changes without sun highlights and street lighting
- Outdoor – general day-to-night changes with sun highlights and street lighting
- Motion – monitoring traffic or fast moving objects; motion artefacts are minimized
- Lowlight – optimized for sufficient details at low light.
- Intelligent AE – for people moving in front of a bright background
- Vibrant – enhanced contrast, sharpness and saturation
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.
Video analytics
With built-in video content analysis, the camera reinforces the
Intelligence-at-the-Edge concept where edge devices become increasingly
intelligent. The MOTION+ video motion analysis system that is built into all
camera versions is the perfect solution for applications where standard video
content analysis features are required.
The IVA version of the camera uses the latest generation of the Bosch
Intelligent Video Analysis (IVA) software. This IVA system 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.
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 (Open Network Video Interface Forum) 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.
True day/night switching
The camera incorporates mechanical filter technology for vivid daytime colour
and exceptional night-time imaging while maintaining sharp focus under all
lighting conditions.
Easy installation
Power for the camera can be supplied via a Powerover-Ethernet compliant network
cable connection. With this configuration, only a single cable connection is
required to view, power, and control the camera. Using PoE makes installation
easier and more cost effective, as cameras do not require a local power source.
The camera can also be supplied with power from +12 VDC/24 VAC power supplies.
To increase system reliability, the camera can be simultaneously connected to
both PoE and +12 VDC/24 VAC supplies. Additionally, uninterruptible power
supplies (UPS) can be used, which will allow continuous operation, even during a
power failure.
The auto-focus lens wizard makes it easy for an installer to accurately focus
the camera for both day and night operation. The wizard is activated from the
web browser or from the on-board camera push button making it easy to choose the
workflow that suits best. The automatic motorized back focus adjustment with 1:1
pixel mapping ensures the camera is always focused accurately.
