LOUISVILLE, Ky., July 7, 2010 – Honeywell (NYSE:HON) today released a rugged,
indoor/outdoor mini-dome IP camera that provides three times the image
resolution of standard analog cameras, yet with similar network bandwidth
requirements. The HD4MDIP is the latest addition to Honeywell’s line of
high-definition, IP cameras that provide high-quality images to help operators
complete investigations faster while reducing the infrastructure needed to
support the overall surveillance system.
The true day/night, vandal-resistant, fixed mini-dome provides 720p
resolution at full frame rate. It also helps save money with its low
power-consumption rate and ability to be retrofitted on many existing digital
and network video recorder installations without requiring additional storage
capabilities. This dramatically decreases the cost of infrastructure and total
cost of ownership.
“When it comes to video surveillance, the top two things on end users’ minds
today are picture quality and cost,” said Roberto Testani, product manager,
Honeywell Security Group. “HD4MDIP is another example of how Honeywell continues
to deliver on the promise of IP by addressing both of those concerns. It
provides extremely crisp images at minimal bandwidth, reducing the number of
hardware servers needed to manage the system.”
Like the indoor-version HD3MDIP, which Honeywell released earlier this year,
the HD4MDIP features an externally accessible web-based menu that lets operators
view and control cameras from virtually anywhere. It also features built-in
motion detection capabilities and camera tamper detection features that notify
users when the camera’s field-of-view is altered, obstructed or blurred. The
HD4MDIP also decreases installation and training costs through its simplified
set up, which includes the same programming requirements as interior cameras.
Because of this, operators can cover a wider range of applications without
having to learn new products.
In addition to the HD4MDIP and HD3MDIP cameras, Honeywell’s growing line of
IP video technology includes a complete selection of recording solutions and the
MAXPRO®
VMS video management platform. The company will soon expand its camera line
to include a bullet camera and box camera options.
