1 Box Camera
Chapter 1 Box Camera
The Box Camera is a series of indoor IP cameras consisting of fixed focal and varifocal models in different resolutions. The Box Camera supports lens replacement and features an automatic infrared-cut filter for day and night surveillance. The super low lux models are capable of displaying color live view in near darkness. Models equipped with a mini USB port can be connected wirelessly through a GV-WiFi Adapter (optional). The WDR Pro models can produce clear image for scenes with contrasting intensity of lights. Models using P-Iris allow for precise control of exposure, producing images with better clarity and contrast. The FD (Face Detection) models can detect human faces in the live view mode.
The Box Camera models are detailed below:
