Bosch NBN-733V-IP DINION Starlight HD 720p60 Camera, IVA

The DINION starlight HD 720p60 camera provides clear images 24/7 - even at night or under low-light conditions.

High sensitivity in color (0.017 lx) and monochrome mode (0.0057 lx) enables this camera to work with a minimum of ambient light. This exceptional light sensitivity combined with Content-Based Imaging Technology (C-BIT) ensures crisp, clear, detailed images in all lighting conditions. The 720p HD can also provide up to 60 images per second.

System overview

Advantages over SD cameras
Compared to SD cameras, the DINION HD 720p60 offers, at no higher cost, motorized autofocus, higher resolution, better sensitivity, higher frame rates, and improved picture quality, and is still more bandwidthefficient. Video storage costs are significantly reduced.

Functions

Exceptional low-light performance
The latest sensor technology combined with the sophisticated noise suppression results in a sensitivity of 0.017 lx in color. The low-light performance is so good that the camera continues to provide excellent color performance even with a minimum of ambient light.

The camera is a true day/night camera with a mechanical filter for truly outstanding nighttime performance (0.0057 lx in monochrome). The filter can be switched remotely, or automatically via a light level sensor or contact input.

Low bandwidth consumption
The intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction (iDNR) actively analyzes the contents of the scene to reduce bandwidth and storage requirements. This removes noise artifacts so effectively that compression efficiency is very high (up to 30% improvement). This results in reduced-bandwidth streams that still retain a high image quality and smooth motion. The camera provides the most usable image possible by cleverly optimizing the detail-to-bandwidth ratio via temporal and spatial noise filtering.

Compression parameters for up to eight user-definable regions can be set. This allows uninteresting regions to be highly compressed, thus lowering bandwidth consumption and storage requirements. Important regions can be tuned for best image quality, thus allowing the user to allocate bandwidth to important parts of the scene.

Fast performance
The 60 images-per-second mode provides for optimum performance in fast action scenes and is particularly suitable for casino and banking applications.

Simple installation
The camera has a very intuitive user interface that allows fast and easy configuration. Six configurable user modes are provided with the best settings for a variety of applications:

• Outdoor - general day-to-night changes with sun highlights and street lighting
• Indoor - general day-to-night changes without sun highlights and street lighting
• Motion - monitoring traffic or fast moving objects; motion artifacts are minimized
• Lowlight - optimized for sufficient details at low light.
• Intelligent AE (BLC on non-IVA models) - for people moving in front of a bright background
• Vibrant - enhanced contrast, sharpness and saturation

The auto-focus lens wizard makes it easy for an installer to accurately focus the camera for both day and night operation. The wizard is activated from the web browser or from the on-board camera push button making it easy to choose the workflow that suits best. The automatic motorized back focus adjustment with 1:1 pixel mapping ensures the camera is always focused accurately

Streams
The innovative multi-streaming feature delivers various H.264 streams together with an M-JPEG stream. These streams facilitate bandwidth-efficient viewing and recording as well as integration with third-party video management systems.

An upright mode can be selected for the second stream. In this mode an image of 400 x 720 (9:16 aspect ratio) is cropped from the full sensor image. When the scene to be monitored is suitable to this mode, the bandwidth and storage requirements are reduced.

Storage management
Recording management can be controlled by the Bosch Video Recording Manager (VRM) or the camera can use iSCSI targets directly without any recording software.

Edge recording
The internal MicroSD card slot supports up to 2 TB of storage capacity. A microSD card can be used for local alarm recording. Pre-alarm recording in RAM reduces recording bandwidth on the network, or - if microSD card recording is used - extends the effective life of the storage medium.

Intelligent Video Analytics
IVA versions of the cameras use the latest generation of the Bosch Intelligent Video Analysis (IVA) software. This IVA system is the guard-assistant system of choice when reliable indoor or outdoor video analytics is needed. The state-of-the-art system reliably detects, tracks, and analyzes moving objects while suppressing unwanted alarms from spurious sources in the image.

The face detection feature detects faces in the scene and forwards a high quality JPEG image of the best shot of each face when the face disappears from the scene.

Retrospective forensic search capabilities are available remotely from the web browser or the included Bosch Video Client.

Regions of interest
Two Regions of Interest (ROI) can be user defined. The remote electronic pan, tilt and zoom controls allow you to select specific areas of the parent image. These regions produce separate streams for remote viewing and recording. These streams, together with the main stream, allow the operator to separately monitor the most interesting part of a scene while still retaining an overall view.

The IVA Intelligent tracker can also follow objects within the defined regions of interest. The Intelligent tracker can autonomously detect and track moving objects or the user can click on an object which the Intelligent tracker will then follow.

Access Security
Password protection with three levels and 802.1x authentication is supported. To secure Web browser access, use HTTPS with a SSL certificate stored in the camera. The video and audio communication channels can be independently AES encrypted with 128-bit keys by installing the optional encryption site license.

Surveillance software
There are many ways to access the camera s video and IVA-based features: using a web browser, with the Bosch Video Management System, with the Bosch Recording System, with the free-of-charge Bosch Video Client, or with the video security mobile App.

The Bosch Video Client PC surveillance software offers a user-friendly interface to support easy installation and configuration. It also provides easy live viewing of multiple cameras, playback, forensic search and export.

Access to IVA metadata is available to integrators via RTSP.

Video security App
The Bosch video security mobile App has been developed to enable Anywhere access to HD surveillance images allowing you to view live images from any location. The App is designed to give you complete control of all your cameras, from panning and tilting to zoom and focus functions. It s like taking your control room with you.

This App, together with the separately available Bosch transcoder, will allow you to fully utilize our dynamic transcoding features so you can play back images even over low-bandwidth connections.

Connections
The camera conforms to the ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum) Profile S specification. This guarantees interoperability between network video products regardless of manufacturer. For trouble-free network cabling, the camera supports Auto-MDIX which allows the use of straight or cross-over cables. Camera power is supplied via PoE (Power-overEthernet) or via the 24 VAC/12 VDC connector.
