Bosch DINION thermal 8100i NBT-8700-F18QF
Product Type: Bullet Thermal Camera
Key Features: QVGA Thermal Imaging, IVA Pro Perimeter, Long-Distance Detection, Rugged, Cybersecure
Product Overview
The Bosch DINION thermal 8100i camera (model NBT-8700-F18QF) is a robust bullet thermal camera designed for mission-critical applications. It excels in long-distance monitoring and reliable perimeter intrusion detection by sensing heat signatures, enabling operation without visible light. This makes it highly effective for identifying potential threats across large perimeters, even in challenging conditions like complete darkness, smoke, or fog. The camera integrates Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA) Pro Perimeter for high-accuracy detection of intruders and minimizing false alarms. Its AI-driven autocalibration simplifies installation, ensuring quick and precise setup. The rugged, corrosion-resistant housing provides robust reliability in any outdoor environment.
Key Features & Capabilities
- Offers versatile lens options from telephoto to wide-angle to suit diverse monitoring needs.
- Thermal imaging combined with IVA Pro Perimeter achieves an ultra-low false alarm rate.
- Features QVGA thermal imaging resolution.
- Provides rugged housing and cybersecure capabilities.
- AI-based (3D) autocalibration ensures a fast and simple installation process.
The DINION thermal 8100i camera's key differentiator is its long-range detection capability, allowing reliable identification of people and vehicles at great distances, unaffected by environmental distractions like headlights or shadows. It is an ideal solution for critical infrastructure security. The camera offers intuitive user-adjustable settings for contrast, brightness, sharpness, and noise reduction, along with user-selectable thermal color modes for optimal image clarity and customization.
Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA) Pro
The camera includes pre-installed IVA Pro Buildings and IVA Pro Perimeter. These features provide highly reliable deep-learning based detection and tracking of persons and vehicles in various scenarios, from sterile zones to crowded areas. The system is highly resistant to false triggers caused by challenging environmental conditions such as rain, wind, snow, shadows, and small animals. It reliably detects, tracks, and classifies objects. Smart alarm and counter rules enable alerts for predefined events and facilitate efficient forensic searching of recordings. Configuration is minimized and simplified.
Range Performance
The camera's detection performance is theoretical, based on minimal object resolution requirements for Intelligent Video Analytics, and assumes optimal conditions. It features a versatile lens portfolio adaptable to various monitoring needs.
