Eclipse CCTV Inc., one of the world’s leading suppliers of high performance electronic security equipment for over 15 years, today announced the introduction of many breakthrough products that have been released.
Dome Camera
The ECL-557 Series domes are the first cameras in the industry to offer onboard strobe technology.
“We received rave reviews from installers and integrators during our initial market test and soft launch. The strobe technology has caught on with many end users and customers.”
The strobes are used as deterrents and remind those entering a building or residence that they are being monitored and recorded. Installers will have a choice of activating or deactivating the strobe function via a dip switch on the domes.
“During our initial research and case study we found that 92% of the people entering a building with our strobe technology immediately looked directly at the cameras. This allowed our DVRs to record a perfect picture of the person's face as they entered. A common problem within the industry is the inability to obtain a facial recognition image with ceiling mounted cameras.”
The ECL-557 Series also offers Smart IR Technology which allows the dome camera to automatically adjust the IR strength according to distance. As an object gets closer the Smart IR Technology automatically reduces the amount of IRs used to eliminate white wash and produce a true color picture.
Bullet: The strobe technology is also offered in the form of a bullet camera. The ECL-599H and HT models. These models offer 1/3-inch high resolution Sony CCD sensor built into a water proof case. Features include auto exposure, aperture correction, anti-color rolling and a vandal-resistant housing made of zinc alloy built to withstand attacks.
Alarm: Integrating the ECL-599T/HT bullets with the new Nubix RT DVRs allows for emergency strobe activation. The normal state of the strobes would be off but in the event of motion sense, alarm or sensor trigger the strobes would immediately begin flashing all at once indicating an alarm has occurred.
