New AUTODOME 7100i (IR) cameras with deep learning video analytics improve city surveillance and traffic monitoring

When monitoring traffic and crowds you want to understand traffic flow, e.g. knowing what peak times are which could lead to more unsafe situations. But also how many people are in a certain area at any given time and how people move and where they congregate.

IVA Pro Traffic and IVA Pro Intelligent Tracking (available via license) ensure you have reliable, precise detection and comprehensive data capture in congested traffic scenes.

• Accurately classify types of vehicles (and people) with IVA Pro Traffic
• Reliable and robust autotracking with IVA Pro Intelligent Tracking
• Minimize unwanted alarms

This allows you to use real-time data to understand the flow of movement, plan for periods of peak occupancy, and take immediate action to resolve busy traffic situations to manage it more effectively and increase safety.

In perimeter security, it is important to have access to details with excellent clarity to identify objects of interest and maintain situational awareness. Or for visual verification in real-time or forensic search. AUTODOME 7100i (IR) cameras offer exactly that thanks to high resolution imaging (up to 4K ultra HD) combined with starlight, 60 fps, High Dynamic Range and 12x / 40x zoom.

On top of that, IVA Pro Perimeter (built-in as standard) is ideal for the use of perimeter security, as it:

• offers early detection in challenging outdoor scenes
• can even detect crawling and rolling

On top of that, the new robust ball design eliminates optical distortion when looking above the horizon and also has an integrated closed loop design which ensures homing position is never lost. So you can rest assured that you have the highest levels of security for your assets.

IVA Pro Buildings and Perimeter come free and pre-installed on AUTODOME 7100i (IR) cameras. Based on deep learning, IVA Pro Traffic is an additional, licensed option that supports ITS applications. By achieving accuracy levels beyond 95 percent in vehicle counting, it can replace traditional and expensive-to-maintain counting methods, for example, ground loops. In addition to giving an accurate count, IVA Pro Traffic offers reliable detection and subclassification of vehicles such as cars, bicycles, buses, motorcycles, and trucks. It can accurately detect and classify pedestrians, even in crowded scenes, to enable safety solutions for vulnerable road users. The collected data provides actionable insights for improving the efficient use of roadways and the safety of people and vehicles at intersections, highways, and tunnels. The algorithms of the IVA Pro Traffic are trained to ignore potential disturbances caused by vehicle headlights or shadows, extreme weather, sun reflections, and shaking cameras.

IVA Pro Intelligent Tracking is a new, licensed option that enables the camera to zoom in and follow a selected object automatically . The new software uses deep learning to understand more complex vehicle and pedestrian traffic scenarios and situations, such as when vehicles and pedestrians chosen to be tracked by the functionality are temporarily stopped in transit due to traffic lights, congestion, or accidents. This sophisticated analysis of the scene gives the user a higher degree of reliability that the selected object will be followed continuously, even if it does not keep moving all the time.

The AUTODOME 7100i (IR) camera portfolio includes 1080p and 4K ultra-HD resolution, 12 to 40x optical zoom, and optional IR. They are equipped with starlight technology, providing detailed overviews 24/7, even in a low-light environment. Intelligent IR comes standard on IR models to eliminate hot spots and ensure optimum illumination. Optical image stabilization is built-in on 8-megapixel models.

The new ball form factor eliminates optical distortion, enabling high-resolution video 20-degrees above the horizon, which is especially useful for city roadways with gradual inclines.

A patented installation concept enables operators to install the AUTODOME 7100i (IR) cameras on a wall or pipe with one hand. A new assistant hinge allows installers to click the camera in place safely and securely and get it up and running quickly, especially when installing from an elevated area. On top of this, system integrators can perform services such as changing configuration settings or installing firmware updates via the Bosch Remote Portal from anywhere.

Adding to the reliability of these cameras and leveraging the MIC's unique positioning system, the AUTODOME 7100i (IR) never loses track of its position, even if power is lost or the camera sustains excessive force. Built-in brushless positioning motors are highly efficient because they use less energy and offer a longer service life. The system presets are accurate to .10 degrees and maintains the intended position for pre-positions, sectors, and privacy masks.
