System overview
High-performance 160x PTZ day/night camera
The AutoDome Junior HD PTZ camera has a 1/2.5-inch
progressive scan CMOS sensor. With up to 1080p
resolution and sensitivity to below 1.0 lux, the
AutoDome Junior HD Series offers exceptional
performance at a very affordable price.
The AutoDome Junior HD supports up to 99 userdefined presets, as well as 1 preposition tour and 1
AutoPan mode. The preposition tour automatically
moves the camera through a series of up to 99
sequential presets with a configurable dwell time
between each preset.
Pan and tilt preset repeatability are accurate to within
±0.1 degrees to ensure that the correct scene is
captured every time. AutoDome Junior HD delivers
variable pan/tilt speeds from a crawl speed of only 1
degree per second up to an ultra-quick 120 degrees
per second. The dome is capable of pan speeds of 360
degrees per second and tilt speeds of 100 degrees per
second between presets. AutoDome Junior HD
provides a tilt range of 0 to 94 degrees, and a pan
range of up to 360 degrees continuous rotation.
The AutoScaling (proportional zoom) and AutoPivot
(automatically rotates and flips the camera) features
ensure optimal control.
Ultra-efficient H.264 encoding
AutoDome Junior HD uses an advanced H.264 encoder
to create high-quality streaming video at ultra-low bit
rates. Use of H.264 encoding, bandwidth throttling,
and multicasting capabilities, minimizes bandwidth
and storage usage to significantly reduce costs.
AutoDome Junior HD supports 1080p30, 720p60,
720p30, 480p30 (WVGA), and 240p30 (WQVGA)
resolutions for 50 Hz and 60 Hz models at 16:9 aspect
ratio.
Multiple video streams
Bosch’s innovative Quad-streaming feature enables the
AutoDome Junior HD to deliver three H.264 streams
together with an M-JPEG stream in full and reduced
bandwidth modes. During full bandwidth operation
(full HD 1080p30 or high frame rate 720p60) the
second stream is an exact copy of the first stream. In
reduced bandwidth mode (720p30), the second
stream is an independently configurable, downscaledresolution stream. In both modes the third H.264
stream consists of HD I-frames only. These streams
facilitate bandwidth-efficient viewing and recording
options as well as integration with third-party video
management systems.
Open Platform Integration
The AutoDome Junior HD complies with ONVIF Profile
S for easy integration into any ONVIF Profile S
compliant third-party video management system. In
addition, many third-party open platform video
management systems support the AutoDome Junior
HD.
Intelligence
With built-in video content analysis, the AutoDome
Junior HD reinforces the Intelligence-at-the-Edge
concept where edge devices become increasingly
intelligent.
The AutoDome Junior HD also features Bosch’s
Intelligent Video Analysis (IVA). IVA is state-of-the-art
intelligent video analysis that reliably detects, tracks,
and analyzes moving objects while suppressing
unwanted alarms from spurious sources in the image.
Image Stabilization
Image stabilization algorithms included with the
AutoDome Junior HD reduces camera shake in both
the vertical and horizontal axis, resulting in
exceptional image clarity. Bosch’s unique image
stabilization solution does not reduce camera
sensitivity, unlike competitive systems.
Rugged reliability
A heavy-duty, tamper-resistant aluminum housing
protects the camera from vandalism and theft,
ensuring the AutoDome Junior HD continues to deliver
critical images even in the toughest environments.
As with all Bosch products, the AutoDome Junior HD
has been subjected to the industry’s most
comprehensive and demanding battery of endurance
tests such as HALT (highly accelerated life testing) to
make sure it will hold up through years of use. And of
course, it comes with Bosch’s industry-leading 3-year
warranty.
Functions
The following are some of the features that make the
AutoDome Junior HD Series the perfect fit for a variety
of indoor surveillance applications.
iSCSI device support
Built-in iSCSI support allows AutoDome Junior HD to
stream video directly to an iSCSI RAID array. This
enables efficient video storage just like a conventional
DVR without streaming high bandwidth video across
the network, making system recording performance
totally independent from network performance.
Network-based control and configuration
The AutoDome Junior HD enables full camera control
and configuration capabilities over the network.
Operators or technicians can control camera pan/tilt/
zoom operation, presets, tours, and alarm
management functions virtually anywhere without
need for additional wiring.
The embedded web server lets the installer access all
the user settings, make camera adjustments, and
update firmware via a standard web browser or via the
Bosch Video Management System.
Device management
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
support facilitates the remote monitoring and
management. AutoDome Junior HD provides full
support for SNMP v1.

Superior privacy masking
The AutoDome Junior HD allows for a total of 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. You
also have a choice of black, gray, or white masking
characteristics.
Ease of installation and servicing
The AutoDome Junior HD has been designed for quick
and easy installation; a key feature of Bosch CCTV
products. The dome comes fully assembled and ready
for surface mount applications. Also available are wall,
recessed, and pipe mounting kits which allow the
AutoDome Junior HD to be easily adapted for
individual site requirements. Indoor models are
available in white or charcoal; the outdoor model is
available in white.
Dual Power Supply
Power for the camera may be supplied via a Power
over Ethernet Plus (PoE+, IEEE 802.3at, class 4)
compliant network cable connection or via a 24 VAC
power supply. The PoE+ option requires only a single
cable connection to power and control the camera
while also viewing images from the camera. (Outdoor
camera models require a 24 VAC power supply to the
heater.)
Viewing
View the video on a PC using a Web browser or via the
Bosch Video Client, the Bosch Recording Station, the
Bosch Video Management System, or in a third-party
ONVIF-compliant system.
Video security App
The Bosch Video Security iPad App has been
developed to fully utilize our Dynamic Transcoding
features and enable Anywhere access to HD
surveillance images, even over low-bandwidth
connections. The App, together with the Bosch
transcoder, is configured to give you complete control
of all your cameras, from panning and tilting to zoom
and focus functions. It’s like taking your control room
with you.
