360° hemispheric and panoramic fisheye views at real-time 30fps

360° fisheye view IP cameras with IR monitor an entire room with a single camera, providing the ultimate ROI. Using DW Spectrum, the camera's view can be dewarped to 90°, 180° and 360° panoramic images.

Next Generation IR Technology

The camera’s IR LEDs sit apart from the lens, beneath a smoked dome. This delivers 360° IR coverage and a sharp black-and-white image in any lighting or weather, while minimizing IR reflection and hotspots.

Complete situational awareness with a single camera

Fisheye cameras can cover complete room monitoring with situational awareness and a 360 hemispheric image that can be dewarped with minimal loss of pixels. The result is a more efficient way to monitor indoor spaces with one solution replacing multiple cameras.

All-in-one cameras that do not require NVR’s, DVR’s or on-premise servers

MEGApix® CaaS™ cameras act as an all-in-one solution, handling recording, notifications, management and monitoring all accessed remotely, with no need for a dedicated server or remote recorder.

Camera as a System

The CaaS™ solution supports multiple cameras in the same network, and unlimited systems all accessible and manageable via DW Spectrum® client, app, and DW Cloud™.

Easy setup (no manual analytics calibration)

DW’s Ai allows operators to choose what to detect and where; with a user-friendly and straightforward UI, users can set up multiple scenarios specific to their monitoring needs without complex calibration.

Object Classification

DW's Ai software processes video streams to detect and classify every object appearing in the detection zone. Our AI-based engines perform object detection, automatically classifying the objects in the scene: people, cyclists, cars, buses and vans, trucks, motorcycles, bicycles and bags.

Ai Analytics Rules

DW Ai solutions include object and person detection, classification, and tracking, as well as specialty plugins for vehicle details detection and tracking.

AI-Based Analytics

DW’s Ai intelligent algorithms offer better object detection and identification of environmental elements. The result is a substantial reduction in false alarms for control room operators and security personnel. Allowing only valid events to filter through increases efficiency and productivity, and reduces unnecessary costs.
