Pixim,
Inc.'s Digital Pixel System (DPS) technology is integrated into Speco
Technologies' new family of wide dynamic range security box, bullet and
dome cameras. Speco's Pixim-enabled surveillance cameras will sell
through security distribution channels to a wide variety of markets
that include industry, business, education and government, as well as
high-end residential.
Pixim's DPS image sensor converts light to a digital signal at each
pixel, enabling each pixel to have independent, optimized exposure
times. DPS technology's image consistency and accuracy overcomes
typical impediments of existing analog CCD sensors, which have trouble
producing positive subject identification caused by image blooming and
smear, as well as limited color fidelity.
Speco's new family of Pixim-enabled cameras include the WDR-T6, a
traditional "box style" camera, the WDR-B1 bullet camera that is
weatherproof with a 2.8-10-mm varifocal auto iris lens, and the WDR-D3
dome camera that is both weatherproof and tamperproof with a 2.8-10-mm
varifocal auto iris lens for wall or ceiling mount.
