Visible imager
The 1080p60-capable visible imager has starlight
technology and a 30x optical/12x digital zoom lens
that provides high-quality images, excellent color
performance, and unbeatable low-light sensitivity. High
dynamic range ensures clear image reproduction in the
most challenging high-contrast scenes.
Ruggedized design for extreme applications
The MIC IP fusion 9000i camera is designed for
surveillance applications beyond the mechanical
capabilities of normal PTZ domes or conventional
positioning systems.
• Ingress
The camera is environmentally sealed and complies
with Type 6P and IP68 standards, when attached to a
MIC-DCA or a MIC-WMB. This level of protection
eliminates any risk of dust or water ingress, making
the camera a perfect choice for use in extreme
environments with rain, dust, snow, flying debris, and
other challenging conditions.
In addition, the MIC camera’s ingress protection
method does not need periodic maintenance, which
is required on cameras with pressurized housings.
• Wide operating temperature range
The camera’s operating temperature range of -40 °C
to +65 °C (-40 °F to +149 °F) enables reliable
surveillance monitoring in global locations from cold
northern latitudes to hot equatorial and desert
regions.
• Rugged construction
The all-metal body has been engineered to withstand
IK10-level impacts, and continuous low-frequency
vibration. With its symmetrical, cross-section
designed surfaces, the camera is also well-suited to
operating in sites with high wind conditions.
• Excellent corrosion protection
The camera benefits from Bosch Automotive domain
knowledge in material engineering and coatings. As a
result, the superior metallurgy, chromate based precoating, and paint finish of the camera provides
unprecedented protection against corrosion.
Reliability is ensured by the camera’s ability to
withstand a 2000-hour salt atmosphere at elevated
temperature corrosion resistance test, according to
the ASTM B117 test method.
• Window Wiper and Defroster
The camera features a highly durable, silicone wiper
which removes moisture from both the glass and
germanium windows. In addition, both windows
incorporate embedded defrosters that minimize
build-up of snow and ice, ensuring the highestpossible image details in extreme cold and moist
conditions.
The wiper can also be integrated with third-party
washer systems for regular cleaning and maintenance
activities.
Intelligent Video Analytics on the edge
The camera includes the latest release of Intelligent
Video Analytics for monitoring both the visible and the
thermal image streams.
Designed for mission-critical applications, the video
analytics can reliably detect, track, and analyze moving
objects while suppressing unwanted alarms from
spurious sources in the image, even in harsh weather
conditions.
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.
Set-up time is minimized because only the installation
height of the camera must be entered to calibrate the
analytics.
After the camera is calibrated, the analytics engine can
automatically classify objects as upright person, car,
bike, or truck.
Video analytics while camera is moving
The Intelligent Video Analytics can trigger an alarm
when the visible imager detects objects in motion in
alarm fields while the camera is moving.
These alarm fields are defined once across all PTZ
camera views. Any part of those fields that is currently
within the camera’s view becomes active. Thus, guard
tours sweeping across the monitored areas in order to
provide an intruder less time to slip by can now
automatically alarm on those intruders as well.
If desired, the alarm can even be used to trigger the
camera's Intelligent Tracking feature.
Metadata Fusion imaging
The metadata fusion feature enables operators to
receive notification of detected events from both
thermal and visible image streams, regardless of which
image stream they are viewing. This gives operators a
much higher level of situational awareness, and
eliminates the need to monitor both visible and
thermal images constantly.
For example, a standard camera viewing a scene with
limited visibility produces an image such as the one
below.
| MIC IP fusion 9000i
3
The same scene viewed using the visible imager of the
MIC IP fusion 9000i camera would include metadata
fusion events detected by the thermal imager, as
shown below.
Once alerted, operators can switch to the thermal
image (below) of the scene, where they can easily see
the objects creating the alarm. Hence, the metadata
fusion feature provides enhanced situational
awareness.
Intelligent Tracking
The newest generation of the Intelligent Tracking
feature ensures smoother camera motion for more
comfortable viewing and more reliably tracking objects
even under challenging scenes.
On the visible imager, when Intelligent Video Analytics
application detects objects or individuals, the camera
can automatically activate the Intelligent Tracking
feature, which controls the pan/tilt/zoom actions of
the camera in order to track objects and keep them in
view.
Areas with potentially interfering background motion
(moving trees, pulsating lights, and busy roads) can be
masked out.
The camera supports 2 Intelligent Tracking modes:
• Auto mode: In this mode, the camera follows any
object that has triggered an alarm in the
Intelligent Video Analytics application. This mode is
most useful for scenarios where the alarm cases can
be clearly defined, for example, when no motion is
expected at all.
• Click mode: In this mode, users can click on any
object detected by the Intelligent Video Analytics
application to enable the camera to track the
movement of the selected object. This mode is most
useful for scenarios where normal scene activity is
expected.
H.265 Video encoding
The camera is designed on the most efficient and
powerful H.264 and H.265/HEVC encoding platform.
The camera is capable to deliver high-quality and highresolution 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.
The camera is capable of providing 4 streams of
thermal video and 4 streams of HD visible video
simultaneously (8 streams total). This allows the
camera to deliver independent, configurable streams
for live viewing, recording, or remote monitoring via
constrained bandwidths.
Recording and storage management
The Bosch Video Recording Manager application can
control recording management for the camera.
Alternately, the camera can use its embedded local
storage and iSCSI targets directly without any
recording software.
The camera’s embedded local storage (internal EMMCbased memory) can be used for recording "at the
edge" or for Automatic Network Replenishment (ANR)
to improve the overall recording reliability. At the
worst case--full streaming conditions, comprising both
visible and thermal image streams, metadata, and
audio--up to 4 hours of local storage time is possible.
Furthermore, pre-alarm recording is available to
capture details of an incident before the alarm actually
occurs.
Access and Data Security
Special measures have been put in place to ensure the
highest level of security for device access and data
transport. The three-level password protection with
security recommendations allows users to customize
device access. Web browser access can be protected
using HTTPS and firmware updates are always
protected with authenticated secure uploads.
The on-board Trusted Platform Module (TPM) and
Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) support guarantee
superior protection from malicious attacks. The 802.1x
network authentication with EAP/TLS, supports TLS
1.2 with updated cipher suites including AES 256
encryption.

System integration and ONVIF conformance
The camera conforms to the Open Network Video
Interface Forum (ONVIF) Profile S and Profile G
specifications. For H.265 configuration the camera
also supports Media Service 2 which is part of the
future ONVIF Profile T. Compliance with these
standards guarantees interoperability between
network video products regardless of manufacturer.

Other Features
The camera includes many advanced features that
work to maximize performance and satisfy the most
demanding system operation requirements.
• Scene modes
The camera has a very intuitive user interface that
allows fast and easy configuration to optimize image
quality.
The visible imager has five user-selectable scene
modes with pre-configured settings that optimize the
imaging for a variety of applications, including
Motion, Low light, and Vibrant. Operators can select
different scene modes for day or night situations.
The thermal imager has 12 user-selectable thermal
mode options, including White hot, Black hot, Red
Light, Softlight, and Sunset.
Examples of visible and thermal color modes
High performance PTZ operations
The camera has a closed-loop feedback control system
using a 15-bit position resolver. This resolver ensures
high accuracy coordinates are linked with every pan/
tilt position. Because the camera always knows where
it is pointed, it will return automatically to its original
position even if moved by extremely high winds.
The pan and tilt mechanism of the camera is a
ruggedized, spur gear system. The brushless motors
directly control the pan and tilt movement using a
finely-tuned gear train designed to minimize backlash
and support continuous operation without much wear
and tear.
With a full 360º continuous rotation pan, 296º tilt
control, and super-quick pan (120°/second) and tilt
(90°/second) operational speeds, the camera
outperforms other cameras in its class.
Tilt range of MIC IP fusion 9000i camera
The camera’s ability to operate at very slow speeds
(<0.2°/second) means it excels at tracking slowmoving objects or objects at a distance.
The camera supports 256 pre-positions and two styles
of Guard Tours: Preset and Record/Playback. One
preset tour has capability for up to 256 consecutive
pre-positions and the other with up to 256 userdefined pre-positions. Both offer configurable dwell
time between pre-positions.
The camera also provides support for two custom
recorded tours, which have a combined duration of 30
minutes of movements. The custom tours are recorded
macros of an operator’s movements, including pan,
tilt, zoom, focus and pre-position activities. Operators
can play back tours in a continuous manner.
