Intelligence
With built-in video content analysis (VCA), the camera
reinforces the Intelligence-at-the-Edge concept where
edge devices become increasingly intelligent.
The camera comes with the state-of-the-art VCA
method by Bosch, Intelligent Video Analytics, that
reliably detects, and analyzes moving objects while
suppressing unwanted alarms from spurious sources
in the image.
With this method, the camera is able to detect idle
and removed objects as well as loitering, multiple line
crossing, and trajectories. This method also supports
BEV (Bird’s Eye View) People counting.
Intelligent Tracking
The camera utilizes the built-in Intelligent Video
Analytics to follow an individual or an object
continuously.
When Intelligent Video Analytics detects objects while
the camera is in a stationary position, the camera
activates the Intelligent Tracking feature. This feature
controls the pan/tilt/zoom actions of the camera to
track the objects and keep them in view in the scene.
The new Intelligent Tracking is based on robust flow
detection algorithms which can reliably track moving
objects even under challenging scenes.

The tracking and detection reliability can be enhanced
further with virtual masking for scenes with a lot of
background motion such as trees or other objects
creating constant motion in the scene.
The camera supports three modes for Intelligent
Tracking:
Auto mode: When configured in this mode, the camera
actively analyzes the video to detect any moving
object. If it detects movement, it begins to track the
object. This mode is most useful for scenarios where
normally no motion is expected.
One Click mode: In this mode, users can click an
object moving in the live video image 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.
Triggered mode: In this mode, the camera continuously
analyzes the scene for alarms or rule violations. If a
rule is violated, it triggers the advanced tracking
feature of the camera to start following the object /
person that triggered the alarm.
This unique combination of robust Intelligent Video
Analytics and Intelligent Tracking allows the camera to
track moving objects of interest without getting
distracted by other moving objects in the scene.
Virtual masking
The camera offers Virtual Masking, which gives users
flexibility to mask parts of the scene which should not
be considered for flow analysis to trigger Intelligent
Tracking. This allows users to mask from Intelligent
Video Analytics/Tracking any background motion
(moving trees, pulsating lights, and busy roads) in the
scene without blocking the motion from the video.
Dual power options
All AUTODOME starlight models can be powered by
either a PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at)-capable network switch
or a High PoE midspan.
In a PoE configuration, a single cable connection
provides power while simultaneously supporting data
and video transmission.
For additional system reliability, users can connect 24
VAC power and PoE to provide fully redundant power
to the camera without disruption to operation.
DORI coverage
DORI (Detect, Observe, Recognize, Identify) is a
standard system (EN-62676-4) for defining the ability
of a camera 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:

Five (5) pre-programmed user modes
Five pre-programmed but configurable user modes,
optimized with the best settings for a variety of typical
applications, make on-site programming easy and userfriendly. Users select from the menu the mode that
best defines the environment in which the camera is
installed:
• Outdoor – General day-to-night changes with sun
highlights and street lighting
• Indoor – Ideal mode for indoor applications where
lighting is constant and not changing
• Low light – Optimized for sufficient details at low
light
• Motion – Monitoring traffic or fast moving objects;
motion artifacts are minimized
• Vibrant – Enhanced contrast color reproduction and
sharpness
Users have the ability to customize these modes, if
necessary, for the specific requirements of the site.
Image Stabilization
As PTZ cameras continue to increase their optical
zoom capabilities, image stabilization becomes critical
to eliminate movement caused by unstable camera
mounts. Minor movement of the camera mount can
shift the field of view by a large distance when the
camera is zoomed to a high value. This can render
images unusable. The camera incorporates an Image
Stabilization algorithm that allows the camera to
detect continuous vibration. If it detects vibration, the
| AUTODOME IP starlight 7000 HD

camera dynamically corrects the shaky video in both
the vertical and horizontal axis, resulting in
exceptional image clarity and a stable field of view on
the monitor.
Superior privacy masking
The camera provides 24 individual, easy to configure
privacy masks, with up to 8 displayed in the same
scene. As the camera is zoomed, each mask changes
size smoothly and quickly, ensuring that the covered
object cannot be seen in most cases.
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.
PTZ drive and mechanism
The AUTODOME 7000 supports 256 pre-positions and
two styles of Guard Tours: Preset and Record/
Playback. Users can configure the preset standard tour
with as many as 256 sequential pre-positions, with a
configurable dwell time between pre-positions. The
AUTODOME Series also provides support for two
recorded tours, which are recorded macros of an
operator’s movements, including pan, tilt, and zoom
activities, and can be played back with the click of a
button.
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 variable pan/
tilt speeds from a crawl speed of only 0.1 degrees per
second to a full 400 degrees per second. The camera
is capable of pan speeds of 400 degrees per second
and tilt speeds of 300 degrees per second between
pre-positions. The camera provides a tilt angle 18
degrees above the horizon, and a pan range of up to
360 degrees continuous rotation.
Content Based Imaging Technology
Content Based Imaging Technology (CBIT) is used to
radically improve image quality in all lighting
conditions and to identify areas for enhanced
processing. The camera examines the scene using
intelligent video analytics and provides feedback to retune the image processing. This provides better detail
in the areas that matter and better all-round
performance.
Intelligent Defog
Users can configure the mode to be active
continuously, or to activate automatically when the
video analytics in the camera detect fog and add light
to the video image (and then deactivate when the fog
clears or the scene changes).
Intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction reduces
bandwidth and storage requirements
The camera uses Intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction
which actively analyzes the contents of a scene and
reduces noise artifacts accordingly.
The low-noise image and the efficient H.264
compression technology provide clear images while
reducing bandwidth and storage by up to 50%
compared to other H.264 cameras. This results in
reduced-bandwidth streams that still retain a high
image quality and smooth motion. The camera
provides the most usable image possible by cleverly
optimizing the detail-to-bandwidth ratio.
Bitrate optimized profile
The average typical optimized bitrate in kbits/s for
various frame rates is shown in the table:
FPS 1080p 720p 480p
60 -- 2600 2000
30 2600 1300 1000
15 2100 1100 800
10 1800 1000 700
5 1250 600 450
2 500 270 200
Actual bitrate may vary depending on the scene
complexities and encoding configurations.
Common product platform (CPP4)
The camera has an advanced, efficient H.264 encoder
(CPP4) embedded for high quality HD streaming video
and very efficient streaming and network capabilities.
The new platform supports simultaneous streaming of
individually configurable HD streams, and allows a
choice of HD resolution in combination of SD
resolutions.
Advanced streaming

that you can configure the camera to take advantage of
the latest network technology.
The camera is designed on the most efficient and
powerful H.264 encoding platform capable of
delivering high-quality HD video with very low network
load. The new intelligent encoding capabilities drops
the bandwidth consumption to extremely low levels if
the camera detects no motion in the scene.
The camera is capable of quad streaming which allows
the camera to be configured to deliver independent,
configurable streams for live viewing, recording, or
remote monitoring on constrained bandwidths.
Recording and storage management
A memory card (SD (Secure Digital), SDHC (Secure
Digital High Capacity), or SDXC (Secure Digital
eXtended Capacity)) can be used for local alarm
recording or for Automatic Network Replenishment
(ANR) to improve the overall recording reliability.

Recording management can be controlled by the
Bosch Video Recording Manager (VRM), or the camera
can use iSCSI targets directly without any recording
software.
ONVIF conformant
The camera conforms to the ONVIF (Open Network
Video Interface Forum) specification which guarantees
interoperability between network video products
regardless of manufacturer. The ONVIF Profile S
specification allows easy integration with other
conformant devices and VMS. ONVIF conformant
devices are able to exchange live video, audio,
metadata, and control information, and ensure that
they are automatically discovered and connected to
network applications such as video management
systems.
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 can also be
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.
The advanced certificate handling offers:
• Self-signed unique certificates automatically created
when required
• Client and server certificates for authentication
• Client certificates for proof of authenticity
• Certificates with encrypted private keys
Ease of installation and servicing
