i-PRO Unveils High Zoom Bullet Camera Range

The i-PRO High Zoom Bullet camera lineup includes 10x and 30x zoom options, complemented by long-range (up to 250m/820ft) infrared (IR) LED capabilities for optimal performance in low-light or nighttime conditions. Available in 2MP, 5MP, and 4K resolutions, the range offers 20 new models across the X- and S-series.

“The High Zoom Bullet camera’s superior performance, combined with AI-powered analytics and an industry-leading 200-meter IR distance, sets a new standard for long-range security monitoring in mission-critical environments, including city surveillance, critical infrastructure, and transportation hubs,” says Gerard Figols, chief product officer at i-PRO.

High Zoom Bullet Camera Lineup Incorporates State-of-the-Art Surveillance Technologies

The company points out that its latest product line offers several features that include:

AI-Driven Object Detection: Featured on X-series models, the powerful Ambarella CV52 SoC incorporates nine pre-installed edge applications, enabling enhanced object detection, AI on-site learning, and smarter incident detection in all conditions. With its open AI development platform for third parties, i-PRO provides the flexibility to tailor the system to meet specific operational needs.

X-series models also include the ability to add AI analytics to non-AI network cameras, including cameras from other manufacturers. Each X-series camera can collect AI metadata from up to three additional non-AI camera streams, giving advanced situational awareness to legacy cameras in potentially difficult-to-reach areas.

i-PRO Active Guard: When paired with the i-PRO Active Guard intelligent search application, a wealth of metadata describing the unique attributes of humans and vehicles is delivered to popular Video Management Systems (VMS) like Milestone, Genetec, Video Insight, and others. This not only allows deep forensic search from edge-based AI analytics but this X-Series feature also enables real-time proactive monitoring of important events that require immediate attention.

LPR-Optimized Models: Four LPR-optimized models are available for capturing plates at high speeds (up to 130 km/h) during the day or night. The camera’s inclusion of advanced Long Wavelength Pass Filter (LPF) is said to enhance plate capture in various lighting conditions, such as reducing glare from vehicle headlights at night, ensuring improved levels of accuracy even in challenging lighting conditions. Vaxtor’s LPR software is bundled with the camera and licensed separately.

“It’s the first time we are launching a third-party application bundled with our powerful edge computing cameras. The native integration of Vaxtor with i-PRO Active Guard demonstrates how our hardware and third-party software partners bring unparalleled value to mission-critical applications like city surveillance and traffic monitoring,” adds Figols.

Additional X-Series Features and Benefits:

• Cybersecurity: NDAA and TAA compliant, the line-up is FIPS 140-2 Level 3 certified and features secure boot (X-series) and GlobalSign digital certificates for robust cyber security.
• Gyro-Based Stabilization: The integrated gyro sensor is said to improve image stability during long-range zoom operations, reducing vibration and ensuring sharp images, even in challenging conditions.
• Easy Installation: i-PRO asserts the installation of the cameras is simplified with a ball-joint mechanism for flexible angle adjustment and a temporary holding structure. The cameras’ sunshade design reduces the impact of external light and rain, further ensuring optimal image quality.
