Ultra-Compact Mobile Megapixel 360° camera launched for ISC West


360° OF VISION A high-resolution, hemispherical view of your world. No blind spots. Crisp images. Digital clarity. FullSight mini or FS-IP1000 is the worlds smallest rugged 360-degree immersive camera designed for mobile applications such as buses, trains, police vehicles and emergency responders. This camera is also used in smaller room applications such as counting rooms, interrogation rooms, hallways, and lobbies. The FullSight IP is a ceiling- or wall-mounted digital video camera that uses a fisheye lens to provide complete situational awareness. Our immersive imaging technology lets you see, record and playback an entire 360° field-of-view. Not only is the FullSight Mini ultra compact and ready for a wide range of applications but it is delivered at a ground breaking price that brings total cost of ownership down dramatically. The FullSight IP camera integrates with a wide range of available products for video analytics, digital video recording as well as archival and storage needs. Include the FullSight IP camera as part of your video surveillance solution.

Rugged Reliability The durable enclosure has the strength of 10-gauge steel and can withstand 120-lbs of force, making the FullSight IP camera virtually vandal-proof. The FullSight IP camera is sealed for all-weather outdoor use and can withstand temperatures of -40°C. No moving parts means FullSight IP provides long-term performance and reliability.

Digital PTZ Our patented technology enables you to digitally pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) either the live feed or recorded archives. The 360° image gives you an exceptional level of situational awareness with 7x digital zoom capability. This ensures that activity is recorded anywhere in the scene at all times.

Low-Light Performance Even in low light, our multi-megapixel sensors operate at full video frame rates to deliver crisp images. Easy-to-use controls adjust image light and color settings to enhance the image quality, ensuring that you are capturing the necessary detail regardless of available lighting.

Secure Viewing, Remote Monitoring The FullSight IP is desinged to be used alone or securely managed over a network by multiple authorized users via a standard web connection. The integrated server means that there is no PC required for transmitting images over networks or the internet.

Sentry 360 Security, Inc. publicly releases its open architecture Software Development Kit (SDK) to the IP Video security industry. For years 360-degree immersive video has had its ups and downs, technologies have come and gone but Sentry 360 believes it has put a stamp on the future for this breed of high resolution wide angle technology. 360-degree panoramic video solves the problem of blind-spots and poor resolution by reducing camera counts and delivering complete situational awareness. Two forms of Sentry 360's SDK have been developed; a high-level and low-level API. The high-level API is designed to work exclusively with Sentry 360 devices. By combining the best megapixel sensor technology with optimized wide angle fisheye lenses, Sentry 360 has created application driven appliances designed to meet specific applications for indoor, outdoor, covert, extreme temperature, low-light and mobile surveillance. The high-level API allows for easy integration into 3rd party software products and is provided in the following forms: C library/C++ class library for Microsoft Windows or Linux Operating Systems, ActiveX control (Windows including Visual Basic), and .NET assembly. We have already formed partnerships with some of the industry's leading Network Video Recording Software companies such as JDS Digital Security whom has completed the integration and is exhibing 360-degree technology on their SoftSite32 Enterprise Series at this years ISC West conference in Las Vegas, Nevada, booth 17135. The low-level API has been designed to give the maximum possible flexibility and performance for video management system developers. It provides means for direct input of image data, setting dewarping and image parameters and direct output for processed image data. The API can be used with any raw image data, regardless of resolution, pixel format or color space. Third-party system integrators can use panoramic technology with a single camera license on their favorite NVR or DVR solution. Simply put, this is a software plug-in that is 100% Camera Neutral, Lens Neutral, Software language Neutral and Operating System Neutral. In today's world of convergence in the video surveillance market and the craving for standards in network cameras, Sentry 360 has laid the path for open architecture 360-degree panoramic display of high resolution images with full retrospective PTZ (Pan Tilt Zoom). This is a cost effective "Green Technology" that delivers no-blind spots and no moving parts with a single camera. Sentry 360 will be exhibiting this SDK and its FullSight series of application driven 360-degree megapixel cameras at the International Security Converence in Las Vegas, Nevada, April 1-3 at booth 17148.
