Arecont Vision Surveillance Camera Capabilities

Securing large areas with complete surveillance coverage can be challenging, and often, the use of pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras doesn't suffice. A PTZ camera can only be pointed in one direction at a time, and can easily miss security-threatening events in another part of the coverage area. Panoramic view cameras don't miss anything with a 180° or 360° view, allowing the use of one camera instead of many. 

High definition megapixel security cameras can cover larger areas with fewer cameras while also delivering footage with superior detail. These cameras enable the user to view and record while simultaneously digitally zooming into multiple areas of interest, which a PTZ cannot accomplish. This provides lower infrastructure costs along with improved ROI as users achieve better performance with less expensive video systems and megapixel cameras. 

Arecont Vision panoramic view cameras are available with both 180° and 360° views, and with 8- or 20-megapixel resolutions. Resolutions will continue to increase with model updates. The latest 8- and 20- megapixel panoramic view cameras are also enhanced with day/night functionality, and automatically switch from color during the day to black and white at night. 

Many real-world examples show how the Arecont panoramic view surveillance camera can simplify and lower the cost of a video surveillance system. 

• In New York State, Arecont Vision 8-megapixel, 180° cameras are installed at the front and back entrance of a police department for exterior video coverage. The wide panoramic field-of-view eliminates the costs for additional cameras and pan-tilt-zoom units. Arecont Vision security cameras automatically switch from color to black and white at night, enabling the best visibility. 
• At a Pennsylvania waste center, an Arecont Vision 180° megapixel camera provides a complete view for police to monitor illegal dumping. The Arecont system provides a clear image of faces and license plates for police to identify and issue citations. 
• At a Colorado supermarket distribution center, an Arecont Vision 180° panoramic camera is installed outdoors on the side of the building to watch the shipping/receiving area. The 20-megapixel day/night panoramic camera provides a complete view of the property. A heater-blower enables the camera to operate in extreme temperatures. 

In surveillance, complete and continuous coverage and resolution are of utmost importance. Arecont Vision panoramic megapixel security cameras provide continuous panoramic coverage and high resolution for the best ROI and the best results.
