Field of View
|
In many installations one
OKIQeye multi-megapixel camera can
replace two, four or even more cameras.
Mechanical PTZ units can be replaced with a
multi-megapixel
OKIQeye with a wide field of view lens.
Greater Field of View reduces cost
three ways:
1. Fewer devices to install and
manage - up front and ongoing cost
savings
2. Smaller file sizes so less disk
required for archival
3. Fewer network nodes - smaller
switches and less wiring

Every installation
has unique requirements for camera placement
and lens selection. There are handy circular
calculators available from CCTV suppliers
that are a big help, and there are some good
links on the Internet that explain how to
calculate field of view and pixels per
subject at different camera to subject
distances.
Here is an excerpt
from the U.S. Department of Justice report
intended for use by schools when designing
surveillance systems:
For observation
of a camera scene to determine only if a
human is in the scene (or to be able to
distinguish between a person and an
animal), a minimum criteria of 6
horizontal TV lines across a 1-foot-wide
object within the scene is used. (In
terms of active picture elements, this
means that a 1-foot-wide object would
cover 8 horizontal active picture
elements for each row of picture
elements for the height of the object on
the camera imager.) For identification
of a person by facial features, 16
horizontal lines (21 pixels) of
resolution subtending a 1-foot-wide
object is needed.
To test this, we
took some pictures with an OKIQeye.
The area highlighted as the face below is
about 10" high, so the DOJ report would
allow the use of the smallest image
represented. We think it gets fuzzy long
before that, and our consensus was to use
twice as many lines as the minimum standard.
Wouldn't you rather have good image detail?

Methodology: Using
an
OKIQeye
and a 6.5 mm lens we increased distance and
took an exposure until the face was
unrecognizable. Then the head and shoulders
was cropped from the large image. We used
Photoshop to copy the face and enlarged it
to 92 by 110 (the native resolution of the
largest face) using bicubic interpolation.

Protecting Critical Government Infrastructure, Military and Homeland
Surveillance
IP Video solutions are the next wave in CCTV surveillance. The ability to
monitor your systems from anywhere, IP video solution.
Keep an eye on your critical facilities at all times.
With OkSolar’s OkIP Video Anywhere, you can monitor sites several thousand miles
away as if they were across the street. Our system facilitates remote site
surveillance through energy-independent operation and allows video to be
transmitted over IP without any physical lines being installed. Companies with
remote or hard to access assets, such as oil and gas pipelines, bridges or rural
properties, have not had an effective, economical solution for protecting those
assets. Some of the features like automated archiving allow you not only to
track construction progress in real time but also to retrieve past images which
can be used to resolve issues quickly. Remote Control for Video IP Any Where!
Applications

IP Video Anywhere! Solar Powered, wireless Got facilities you need to keep an
eye on? Oftentimes they're several miles from your headquarters and, worse, you
can't get any electricity (let alone Ethernet) to an exterior location where
you'd like to mount a camera. Companies with remote or hard to access assets,
such as oil and gas pipelines, bridges or rural properties, have not had an
effective, economical solution for protecting those assets.
