The system, specified by the University in conjunction with specialist consultants Global MSC Security, is an entirely Bosch-based solution comprising primarily fully-functional high-speed domes and associated transmission and digital recording technologies.
The CCTV system to date includes some 70 cameras, primarily EnviroDomes and FlexiDomes as well as a handful of fixed cameras. EnviroDomes are an integral part of Boschs AutoDome range, featuring its innovative motion tracking capability AutoTrack. Rugged in design and ideally suited for perimeter surveillance, car parks and other similar outdoor applications, EnviroDomes feature Day/night cameras that automatically switch from colour to monochrome when light levels decrease to give extra sensitivity, whilst high-resolution cameras with optical zoom of up to 25x capture the finest detail.
FlexiDomes utilise advanced 15-bit imaging technology, already proven in its Dinion cameras to exploit the full potential of todays imaging chips. With their 540 TV-line resolution, FlexiDome cameras are able to produce extremely sharp and detailed images and handle difficult lighting conditions, including an Auto Black feature to counteract the effects of fog or glare, NightSense to compensate for fading light, and backlight compensation to ensure clear images when viewing entrances.
As well as cameras, Bosch provided single channel encoders, eight channel encoders, Networked Video Recorders (NVRs), Raid 5 storage units, and pre-configured workstations with all ancillaries such as keyboards. As well as hardware, it also provided all of the appropriate operational software and storage management software.
