- Intelligent noise reduction reduces bandwidth and storage requirements by up to 30%
- Auto back focus for fast installation
DINION Starlight Description
The DINION starlight HD 720p60 camera provides clear images 24/7 – even at
night or under low-light conditions.
High sensitivity in colour (0.017 lx) and monochrome mode (0.0057 lx) enables
this camera to work with a minimum of ambient light. This exceptional light
sensitivity combined with Content-Based Imaging Technology (C-BIT) ensures
crisp, clear, detailed images in all lighting conditions. The 720p HD can also
provide up to 60 images per second.
DINION Starlight System overview
Advantages over SD cameras
Compared to SD cameras, the DINION HD 720p60 offers, at no higher cost,
motorized autofocus, higher resolution, better sensitivity, higher frame rates,
and improved picture quality, and is still more bandwidth efficient. Video
storage costs are significantly reduced.
DINION Starlight Functions
Exceptional low-light performance
The latest sensor technology combined with the sophisticated noise suppression
results in a sensitivity of 0.017 lx in colour. The low-light performance is so
good that the camera continues to provide excellent colour performance even with
a minimum of ambient light.
The camera is a true day/night camera with a mechanical filter for truly
outstanding nighttime performance (0.0057 lx in monochrome). The filter can be
switched remotely, or automatically via a light level sensor or contact input.
Low bandwidth consumption
The intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction (iDNR) actively analyzes the contents of
the scene to reduce bandwidth and storage requirements. This removes noise
artefacts so effectively that compression efficiency is very high (up to 30%
improvement). 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 via temporal and
spatial noise filtering.
Compression parameters for up to eight user-definable regions can be set. This
allows uninteresting regions to be highly compressed, thus lowering bandwidth
consumption and storage requirements. Important regions can be tuned for best
image quality, thus allowing the user to allocate bandwidth to important parts
of the scene.
Fast performance
The 60 images-per-second mode provides for optimum performance in fast action
scenes and is particularly suitable for casino and banking applications.
Simple installation
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:
• Outdoor – general day-to-night changes with sun highlights and street lighting
• Indoor – general day-to-night changes without 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 (BLC on non-IVA models) – for people moving in front of a
bright background
• Vibrant – enhanced contrast, sharpness and saturation
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.
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.
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 internal 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.
Intelligent Video Analytics
IVA versions of the cameras use 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 included Bosch Video Client.
Regions of interest
Two Regions of Interest (ROI) can be user defined. The remote 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 an overall view.
The IVA Intelligent tracker can also 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.
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.
Surveillance software
There are many ways to access the camera’s video and IVA-based features: using a
web browser, with the Bosch Video Management System, with the Bosch Recording
System, with the free-of-charge Bosch Video Client, or with the video security
mobile App. The Bosch Video Client PC surveillance software offers a
user-friendly interface to support easy installation and configuration. It also
provides easy live viewing of multiple cameras, playback, forensic search and
export.
Access to IVA metadata is available to integrators via RTSP.
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.
Connections
The camera conforms to the ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum) Profile S
specification. This guarantees interoperability between network video
products regardless of manufacturer. For trouble-free network cabling, the
camera supports Auto-MDIX which allows the use of straight or cross-over cables.
Camera power is supplied via PoE (Power-over- Ethernet) or via the 24 VAC/12 VDC
connector. Third-party integrators can easily access the internal feature set of
the camera for integration into large projects.
