The WV-X86531-Z2 is the smallest and lightest outdoor rated multi-PTZ of its kind in the industry. It features powerful edge AI capabilities, advanced cybersecurity, and vandal resistance for the widest possible deployment options.
Traditional multi-sensor + PTZ cameras tend to be heavy and bulky which has relegated their deployments to exterior, elevated mounting positions.
The new outdoor-rated and vandal-proof WV-X86531-Z2 camera is nearly half the weight of competing multi-directional PTZ cameras. At only 8.4 lbs. (3.8 kg) and is 9.8 x 7.5 inches (250 x 195 mm), it is the most discreet camera of its type currently available. By deploying a smaller camera, operators benefit from lower mount heights and improved viewings angles for better AI performance.
The camera supports up to four 5MP multi-sensors in addition to the 2MP PTZ sensor. Each multi-sensor has a 3.2mm focal length and a 97° field of view supporting up to 360° of panoramic coverage. The in-built auto-tracking PTZ camera features a 21x optical zoom and 4.0 to 84.6mm focal length. The camera is completely integrated so there’s no need for double assembly, and no calibration is required between the multi-sensor cameras and PTZ camera to set the angle of view.
The WV-X86531-Z2 is the only multi-directional + PTZ camera currently available with AI edge-based analytics, supporting four unique applications on the multi-sensor array and two unique applications on the PTZ for high accuracy notifications and forensic search. The camera comes pre-installed with a robust set of free AI-assisted analytics. AI-based object recognition enables a seamless hand-off from the multi-directional lenses to the PTZ while AI auto-tracking ensures the PTZ doesn’t lose lock on the subject.
Because colors are so important to accurate object recognition and tracking, the multi-sensor cameras support a minimum illumination of .12 lux while the PTZ camera supports illumination down to .011 lux. This enables the camera to deliver color images in the lowest light environments.
The WV-X86531-Z2 contains a secure element which complies with the FIPS 140-2 level 3 standard for cybersecurity resiliency. It also comes with a digital certificate issued by GlobalSign. The camera is IP66, IP67 and IK10 rated allowing it to be mounted in a variety of indoor or outdoor areas for complete flexibility without fear of damage from the environment or vandals.
For increased versatility and discreet use indoors, accessories can provide an embedded ceiling mount that takes a significant portion of camera into the ceiling, decreasing the height by around 30%.
Many PTZ cameras utilize a belt drive system which deteriorates with use. Belts stretch over time leading to less precision when panning to the desired area in the scene. i-PRO PTZ cameras rely on gears to deliver consistent, repeatable panning accuracy and require no routine maintenance.
