Night Time Is the Right Time for IC Realtime’s Newly Updated I-Sniper Surveillance Cameras

The I-Sniper line of products have been improved with greater levels of light gathering to enable the products to remain in color mode for a longer length of time.

Many electronics professionals know IC Realtime for its 360-degree cameras, 720-degree cameras, and 4K NVRs, so it’s easy to overlook its traditional products such as its selection of bullet, dome and pan/tilt/zoom (p/t/z) cameras.

Redesigning its I-Sniper line of products, which provides a choice of bullet, dome and p/t/z cameras, IC Realtime’s new product line update enables the eight products to produce high levels of nighttime clarity. 

Andrew Nassar, general manager, IC Realtime, points out the cameras employ large 1-2/8-inch CMOS sensors that “achieve higher levels of light gathering, enabling them to remain in color mode for longer lengths of time.”

The cameras produce quality images in dim environments and range in cost from $898 to $6,398.

“Beyond the extraodinairly low sensitivity to light, the new generation of I-Sniper [cameras] achieve up to a sutnning 140dB of true WDR [wide dynamic range],” comments Nassar. “This dynamic range extends beyond any other camera in our lineup currently. The I-Sniper technology works extremely well for various lighting, back lighting and dynamically lit applications.”

IC Realtime notes the I-Sniper line can be combined with its DVRs and NVRs to provide 25 percent to 45 percent longer recording times, while utilizing a minimal amount of bandwidth, and the company backs the products with a 10-year warranty and 24/7 support.

Highlights of the product line include:

I-Sniper HD Over Coax Cameras (HDAVS): These products are available in dome and bullet versions, and both versions feature 1080p resolutions and 2.7mm-12mm lenses. Some of the options available with the HDAVS products include 300 feet of IR night illumination and models with 150 feet of IR night illumination. The cameras are weatherproof, and IP67 and IK10 rated.

I-Sniper IP Bullet and Dome Cameras: The IP models provide a choice of two bullet and two dome cameras with 2.7mm-12mm lenses. All four products are IP67 and IK10 rated, and options include a choice of 2MP or 3MP resolutions, and a choice of 150 feet or 300 feet of IR night illumination.

I-Sniper High-Performance IP P/T/Z Cameras: The I-Sniper IP PTZ Cameras provide 2MP of resolution, on-board analytics and 1,500 feet of laser night illumination. The cameras are also weatherproof and vandalism resistent with IP67 ratings, and IC Realtime provides a choice of a 30x optical zoom model and a 40x optical zoom model.
