Axis Communications of Sweden has brought to market the AXIS 207 Network Camera, a true bandwidth-efficient network camera that utilizes MPEG-4 image compression to provide the best image quality of any camera in its class. At about the size of a deck of cards — 2x1x3 inches — the AXIS 207 is the world’s smallest MPEG-4 network camera. It is designed for indoor surveillance and remote monitoring applications and is ideal for securing small businesses, home offices and residences.
Unlike web cameras, the AXIS 207 operates independently of a PC and contains a built-in web server. This enables users to access live images from anywhere in the world via the Internet. The camera provides full-motion video (up to 30 frames a second) using advanced MPEG-4 compression or Motion JPEG video streaming. It also contains a built-in microphone that enables users to hear intruders or visitors, and its input/output port allows for the control of alarms, doors and locks.
The AXIS 207 comes with a high-quality progressive scan CMOS image sensor to provide excellent images in lighting conditions as low as one lux. Additional features include alarm and event management, video motion detection and multiple user access levels with password protection. For further information click to www.axis.com.
