IP cameras with facial recognition available at Norbain 
(24/01/2012)
The Illustra 600 series, from American Dynamics, part of Tyco Security Products, offers an excellent choice for applications requiring exceptional HD video quality in all lighting conditions. Features include free auto-configuration software included with the cameras and hands-free, remote auto-focus and zoom capability. The cameras also feature a unique facial detection capability - the ability to automatically detect faces in a live scene and improve the image quality around the face, while conserving bandwidth in the rest of the scene.
Norbain can now offer customers the new Illustra 600 Series of High Definition (HD) IP cameras from American Dynamics, part of Tyco Security Products.
“Capturing quality facial images is important, particularly in businesses that are monitoring places like cash registers, entrances, and teller lines,” said Steve Carney, senior product manager for IP cameras at Tyco Security Products. “Unlike other cameras on the market, the Illustra 600 has the ability to detect a face and increase the bit rate around it, without cropping out important background images. This unique handling of ‘regions of interest’ allows the camera to save on bandwidth and storage costs.”
Anna Dewhurst, Norbain’s business development executive for Tyco Security Products, comments: “The Illustra 600 series has a range of features that can help save installers time and money on each job, with a simple click of a mouse. For example, the auto-focus feature allows users to control the image and immediately focus on the area required – without having to go to the site of the camera, stand on a ladder, or open the housing of the camera. It’s clever features such as this that really make a difference to our customers and they efficiency with which they can work.”
