The AUTODOME IP starlight 5100i camera extends the
camera range of the series to the next level. The
camera has a 1/2-inch, 4MP sensor, which is specially
tuned for applications that need surveillance in scenes
with varying light levels.
The camera has an integrated 20X optical zoom to
identify people at a maximum distance of 168meters
(551feet).
The smart camera features EssentialVideoAnalytics,
which detects objects within, entering, or leaving an
area or crossing a line and provides instant alerts. This
feature lets operators react early and quickly to
possible intrusions, and prevent damage of property
or assets.
Functions
Outstanding image quality
The 1/1.8-inch CMOS HD sensor combines
outstanding sensitivity and sophisticated noise
suppression with High dynamic range of 133dB. The
camera provides superior low-light performance as
well as outstanding image quality, with sharp focus
details and excellent color reproduction even under
challenging lighting conditions.
Pre-programmed user modes
The camera has several pre-configured scene modes
with the best settings for various applications. With
one click, users can optimize image settings to match
the camera’s lighting conditions. Users can also
configure individual image settings.
• Standard: For indoor fluorescent lighting.
u Built-in Essential Video Analytics to trigger
relevant alerts and quickly retrieve data
• Sodium-lighting: For scenarios where the video is
captured under sunlight in the day or under sodium
vapor lamp at night.
• Vibrant: For enhanced contrast, sharpness, and
saturation
H.265 high-efficiency video encoding
The camera is designed on the most efficient and
powerful H.264 and H.265/HEVC encoding platform.
The camera is capable of delivering high-quality and
high-resolution video with very low network load. With
a doubling of encoding efficiency, H.265 is the new
compression standard of choice for IP video
surveillance systems.
Intelligent streaming
Smart encoding capabilities, together with Intelligent
Dynamic Noise Reduction technology and analytics,
make the bandwidth consumption drop to extremely
low levels. Only relevant information in the scene,
such as motion or objects found with the analytics,
are encoded.
Support for H.264 and H.265 with Encoder Regions
Set a region in the field of view and define a specific
encoder profile to it. This setting reduces the bitrate
of the stream further than intelligent streaming alone.
Recording and storage management
Recording management can be controlled by the
BoschVideoRecordingManager application, or the
camera can use local storage and iSCSI targets
directly without any recording software.

A memory card with a maximum of 32 GB
(microSDHC) / 2 TB (microSDXC) can be used for
recording
at the edge
or for Automatic Network
Replenishment (ANR) technology to improve the
overall recording reliability.
Pre-alarm recording in RAM reduces bandwidth
consumption on the network and extends the
effective life of the memory card.
EssentialVideoAnalytics on the edge
The camera includes the latest release of
EssentialVideoAnalytics application from Bosch for
use on Pre-positions.
The EssentialVideoAnalytics application provides
reliable video analytics for small and medium
business, large retail stores, commercial buildings,
and warehouses.
Advanced tasks like multiple line crossing, loitering,
idle / removed object detection, crowd density
estimation, occupancy and people counting are
available for live alarming and forensic search. Object
filters based on size, speed, direction, aspect ratio,
and color can be defined.
A simplified calibration mode reduces installation time
significantly, because you only need to enter the
installation height once for each camera, independent
of pre-positions.
After the camera is calibrated, the analytics engine
can automatically classify objects as upright person,
car, bike, or truck.
Sophisticated alarm responses
The camera supports advanced alarm control that
uses sophisticated rules-based logic to determine how
to manage alarms. In its most basic form, a rule could
define which input(s) should activate which output(s).
In a more complex form, inputs and outputs can be
combined with pre-defined or user-specified
commands to perform advanced camera functions.
Superior privacy masking
The camera allows for a total of 32 individual privacy
masks, with up to eight masks displayed in the same
scene. Each mask can be programmed with eight
corners. Each mask changes size and shape smoothly
and quickly, ensuring that the covered object cannot
be seen.
With the AUTO Privacy Mask, the color of the Privacy
Mask will adapt to the color of the surroundings.
DORI coverage
DORI (Detect, Observe, Recognize, Identify) is a
standard system (EN-62676-4) for defining the ability
of a person viewing the video to distinguish persons
or objects within a covered area. The maximum
distance at which a camera/lens combination can
meet these criteria is shown below:

Data security
Special measures are necessary to ensure the highest
level of security for device access and data transport.
On initial setup, the camera is only accessible over
secure channels. You must set a service-level
password in order to access camera functions.
Web browser and viewing client access can be
protected using HTTPS or other secure protocols that
support state-of-the-art TLS 1.2 protocol with updated
cipher suites, including AES encryption with 256 bit
keys. No software can be installed in the camera, and
only authenticated firmware can be uploaded. A threelevel password protection with security
recommendations allows users to customize device
access. Network and device access can be protected
using 802.1x network authentication with EAP/TLS
protocol. Superior protection from malicious attacks
is guaranteed by the Embedded Login Firewall, onboard Trusted Platform Module (TPM) and Public Key
Infrastructure (PKI) support.
The advanced certificate handling offers:
• Self-signed unique certificates automatically
created when required.
• Client and server certificates for authentication.

Software sealing
After camera configuration is set it should not be
changed, and system administrators can enable
software protection to seal the camera configuration.
Any change of the sealing status or of the static
configuration, accidental or intentional, will break the
seal. The camera then sends an alarm message that
the video management system can use to start an
appropriate alarm scenario. The camera creates a
separate log file of all changes that have an effect on
the sealing status.
System integration and ONVIF conformance
The camera conforms to the ONVIF ProfileS, ONVIF
Profile G and ONVIF Profile T specifications. For H.265
configuration, the camera supports Media Service 2,
which is part of ONVIF Profile T. Compliance with
these standards guarantees interoperability between
network video products regardless of manufacturer.
Third-party integrators can easily access the internal
feature set of the camera for integration into large
projects. Visit the Bosch Integration Partner Program
(IPP) website (ipp.boschsecurity.com) for more
information.
PTZ drive and mechanism
The camera supports 256 pre-positions and two styles
of Guard Tours: Pre-position and Record/Playback.
The Pre-position tour has capability for up to 256 prepositions with a configurable dwell time between prepositions and can be customized as to the order and
the frequency that each Pre-position is visited. The
camera also provides support for two (2) recorded
tours, which have a total duration of 15 minutes of
movements. These are recorded macros of an
operator’s movements, including pan, tilt, and zoom
activities, and can be played back in a continuous
manner.
Pan and tilt preset repeatability are accurate to within
±0.1 degrees to ensure that the correct scene is
captured every time. The camera delivers maximum
pan speed of 300 degrees per second and maximum
tilt speed of 200 degrees per second. The camera is
capable of manual speeds (pan and tilt) of 0.1 to 120
degrees per second. The camera provides a pan range
of up to 360 degrees continuous rotation.
Ease of installation and servicing
The camera has been designed for quick and easy
installation, a key feature from Bosch IP video
products. All housings feature recessed screws and
latches for increased tamper resistance.
Bosch designed the camera with the knowledge that
field cables and mounts are installed before the
camera is mounted. The installation concept allows a
single person to connect the cables directly to the
camera without re-routing cables. The camera is easily
secured to the mount with 1 screw.
The pendant housing is rated to provide IP66
protection and offers an operating temperature range
down to -40°C (-40°F). The pendant camera comes
fully assembled with a sunshield and ready for
pendant arm or pipe applications with the proper
mounting hardware (sold separately).
Bosch offers a full complement of hardware and
accessories (sold separately) for wall, corner, mast,
roof, pipe mount, and in-ceiling applications for indoor
and outdoor environments, which allow the camera to
be adapted easily to individual site requirements.
Project Assistant
Project Assistant by Bosch is the market’s most easy-
to-use app for initial installation and basic
configuration of IP cameras. Off-site and without
connection to the camera, basic configurations can be
created and then shared with colleagues. On-site,
these pre-configurations can be pushed onto the
camera, making the installation procedure easier and
less time-consuming. Cameras previously configured
can be integrated as well. The app allows easy viewing
and adjustment of the camera's field of view. The app
automatically generates a comprehensive report of the
commissioned cameras.
